The Secret Love
Paola Calvetti
Desire enters quietly, like a thief, and overturns lives that seemed secure. At first, it feels fleeting—a fire destined to flare and fade. But when love is forced into secrecy, confined to stolen hours and whispered meetings, it grows stronger, more dangerous, more enduring.
For thirty years, a man carries such a secret: an affair that reshapes his life yet remains invisible to those closest to him. Neither his wife nor his daughter ever suspects—until one day, the daughter stumbles upon her father’s hidden truth. What she discovers is not just betrayal, but a love story lived in the shadows, as intense and transformative as any lived in the light.
Tender, lyrical, and piercingly honest, The Secret Love explores the weight of desire, the silence of complicity, and the hidden currents that run beneath even the most ordinary families.
