Betrayal is the one thing she would never forgive
Shattered. Trinity Falcone struggled to define her state of being when her husband of over twenty years wrecked their otherwise happy home. They had it all. Both at the pinnacle of their professional careers, three well-adjusted children, two dogs, and the assurance of their love for each other. And then she walked into a scene that was the equivalent of having her heart ripped from her chest. Shattered. Devastated. Anguished. She was all those things, and somehow, someway, she had to survive his betrayal.
He would do anything to win her back
He was a man of law and order. A man of principles and honor. Or at least that is how he used to think of himself. Judge Paolo Falcone was used to attractive women chasing him for his wealth and power, and he wasnt too hard on the eyes. In fact, since he hit puberty, hed had his pick of women. Since falling in love with Trinity more than two decades ago, no other woman had existed for him, and he usually hated their mercenary pursuit. As a judge, he held any oath that he made sacrosanct, and for sure he held his marriage vows the most sacred of them all. So, he had no justification for hurting the one woman he loved more than any other.
Vows, when made with the kind of love they felt for each other, were never meant to be broken. Paolo will have to do everything in his power to convince Trinity that he deserves a second chance.
