That’s Amore by Maya Alden
It wasn’t amore until she walked away.
He found out too late that she was his vita bella.
When Elysa Costa married Dante Giordano, it wasn’t for love. It was a marriage of convenience—a union of tradition and legacy. But what started as an obligation quickly became more for Elysa when she fell in love with her husband.
Dante, burdened by expectations and unsure of his own heart, treated his marriage as nothing more than a duty, keeping things friendly, if distant, with the woman he was tied to.
After Dante’s grandfather’s funeral—the man who orchestrated their marriage—Elysa overhears her husband confiding in a friend that he wishes he wasn’t married to her and wonders if another woman would make a more suitable wife.
Heartbroken and unwilling to settle for a loveless life, Elysa packs her bags, files for divorce, and walks away, determined to find the happiness she deserves.
After Elysa leaves, the truth hits Dante hard. He was falling for his wife all along, and he didn’t want any other woman but her. As he sets out to win Elysa back, he must confront the man he’s been and become the husband his wife needs. In the breathtaking beauty of Italy, among candlelit trattorias and cobblestone streets, Dante has to prove that his love—real, messy, heart-stopping—is real and will last forever.

I think Maya needs to work on the kind of grovel because there is none, it is always "I will disrespect my wife and then barely apologize and she will come back to me." I was so into her books but they have become so repetitive that it feels like I am reading the same thing. The male character will be so inconsiderate, the FMC finally grows a spin and leaves the MMC realizes what he has lost, feels guilty and sorry for himself, he barely grovels and he is then forgiven and they leave happily ever after.
and there's always a cartoonishly evil Other Woman and the fmc always 'overhears' a discussion about her.
This book had the potential to have a really good grovel from the male lead but it kind of fell flat for me .The back and forth of him feeling guilty ,treating her badly, feeling guilty and then barely apologizing on a loop ruined it for me.The one good thing I can say is atleast the female lead wasn't too much of a doormat.
draguta povestea , dar ma asteptam si la ceva actiune
