Bestselling author Gina Iafrate has announced the release of her latest romantic fiction novel, Love And Betrayal, now available in print and ebook formats at Amazon. This novel is the third installment in the Strong Women series, following The Professor's Daughter.
The story follows Gracy, who initially believes she has found eternal love in Alvaro. However, her married life turns disenchanting as Alvaro's vows are broken, leading to pain and suffering influenced by greed, jealousy, and revenge. Gracy's emotional journey of survival becomes challenging, but with the intervention of caring people, she eventually finds love, peace, and support once more.
The Professor's Daughter, the sequel to Iafrate's award-winning The English Professor, is set in Italy and immerses readers in Gracy's life and her adventures in love. Gracy is the love child of an intense affair, taken from her dying mother and raised by her devastated father. After living in hiding to avoid mobsters, they seek peace, but the professor's life ends, leaving Gracy grief-stricken. She crosses the ocean to find love, but fate strikes again with threats that are only appeased when her heart finds its home in her denied lover's devotion.
Gina Iafrate's Strong Women series features characters who overcome staggering odds to build lives that serve as models for women everywhere. Her sweeping family sagas allow readers to travel globally through intricately formed mental images. In the tradition of writers like Nicholas Sparks and John Grisham, her story lines reveal the richness of human experience through finely drawn characters and tactile descriptions of exotic places.
Other books in the series include The Girl From The Cornfield, set in 1950s Italy, where Giuliana Ferrante overcomes a vicious attack to build a successful life; The English Professor, where Andrew Robertson's infatuation in Sicily leads to a child and danger; and Bestowed By Love And Splendour, a story of a broken-hearted wife who finds peace on Sardinia.
