The Silent Hour
Julia Marcelli has everything a woman is supposed to want.
A powerful husband.
A beautiful home on the Miami coast.
Twin daughters she loves more than herself.
For eleven years, she and Ethan Marcelli have built a life together while he built an empire inside courtrooms and backroom deals. Julia knows exactly what kind of man she married, and she has never needed him to be innocent.
She only needed him to be loyal.
Lately, something has changed. Ethan insists there’s an explanation for everything. Julia wants to believe him, but she wasn’t raised to ignore her instincts, and the deeper she looks into the secrets surrounding her husband’s firm, the clearer one thing becomes:
Someone is pulling strings.
And her marriage isn’t the only thing caught in them.
In their world, secrets don’t stay buried, loyalty always comes with a price, and the woman Ethan has spent eleven years loving may not be nearly as soft as he’s allowed himself to believe.
As the life they’ve built begins to fracture, Julia finds herself standing at the edge of a world her husband has spent years trying to keep from touching her, one built on obsession, power, violence…and dangerous men who have been paying far more attention to her than Ethan realizes.
