Libri GmbH Sea Glass and Smoke

She faked her death to save their child. He never stopped mourning her.Kali vanished three years ago, staging a fatal crash so convincing that Diego, heir to a ruthless mafia dynasty, buried the only woman he ever loved. She did it to protect the daughter he never knew existed. Now she lives in the shadows of the city, counting exits at playgrounds and turning ordinary days into survival drills. But when a chance encounter at a crowded park brings her face to face with Diego, the lie unravels in the worst possible way: someone has come for their little girl.Diego's world splits open in a single breath. The woman he grieved is alive. The child with his eyes is his. And the people hunting her are closer than he ever imagined, tangled in betrayals that reach deep into his own bloodline. To keep Amaya safe, he makes a choice that costs him everything: exile to a windswept coastal town, where he and Kali must share a cottage, co-parent a daughter caught between two worlds, and confront the wreckage of a love neither of them could bury. No guns in the house. Full honesty about every threat. Rules that feel impossible for a man raised on violence and control.But the smoke of the old world does not stay behind. As enemies circle closer and alliances fracture, Kali and Diego must decide what they are willing to destroy to build something gentler on the ruins of an empire. In Sea Glass and Smoke, love is not rescue. It is a choice made daily, in sea glass rituals and whispered letters, while danger sharpens its teeth just beyond the shore.
