The Hidden Weave. The Vale Threads, #3

Nico Vale has always been the quiet one - the heir who stayed behind in Naples to keep the old looms running while the rest of the family built an empire in New York. But when a long-buried family secret surfaces, he can no longer remain in the shadows. Drawn back into the crumbling villa that holds both his childhood and the truth his grandmother has guarded for decades, Nico finds himself working alongside Sofia Esposito, a woman who has spent her life protecting the very hands and traditions the modern world wants to erase.
As storms gather - both literal and corporate - Nico and Sofia must navigate fragile alliances, buried betrayals, and a love that asks them to risk everything they've tried to preserve. In the heart of the old workrooms, they will discover that some patterns were never meant to stay hidden. A deeply emotional romance about returning home, facing the past, and finding strength in the threads that bind us.
