Award-winning author Gina Iafrate has announced the release of her latest romantic fiction novel, Love And Betrayal, now available in print and ebook formats on Amazon. This is the third installment in her Strong Women series, following The Professor's Daughter.
The novel follows Gracy, who believed she had found eternal love with her husband Alvaro. However, her marital happiness turns to disenchantment as Alvaro's vows unravel, leading to unfaithfulness and betrayal. Influenced by greed, jealousy, and revenge, Alvaro's behavior brings catastrophic consequences. Gracy's emotional journey of survival becomes challenging as she faces solitude and despair. With the intervention of caring people, she ultimately finds love, peace, and support once more before her terrestrial journey ends.
Love And Betrayal is set in Italy, continuing the saga that began with Iafrate's award-winning book The English Professor. In that prequel, Professor Andrew Robertson embarks on a life-changing journey to Sicily, where he falls into a passionate affair with Francesca, the wife of another man. Their union results in Gracy, who is taken from her dying mother at birth and raised in hiding by her devastated father to avoid corrupt mobsters. After the threat subsides, they seek peace, but the professor's death leaves Gracy grief-stricken. Her destiny takes her across the ocean where she finds love, but fate strikes again with threats that challenge her peace of mind, heart, and life.
Iafrate's Strong Women series features characters who overcome staggering odds to build lives that serve as models for women everywhere. The series also includes The Girl From The Cornfield, a coming-of-age saga set in 1950s Italy, and Bestowed By Love And Splendour, a story of a broken-hearted wife who finds solace on the island of Sardinia. Iafrate is also the author of Releases From My Soul, a collection of anthologies combining true stories and poems.
Iafrate writes sweeping family sagas that allow readers to travel the globe. Her works are known for quick-paced narration and descriptive atmosphere, placing readers in exotic locales.
