The Mafia Queen’s Fool Husband Can Hear Animals

Julian is the son the Vahl family keeps hidden away—overweight, silent, and dismissed as a simpleton. When his stepbrother, Adrian, finds himself facing a forced marriage to Alessandra—the "crippled" godmother of the Moretti crime family—he shoves Julian into an ill-fitting suit to take his place. On their wedding night, a raven outside the window screeches, "Don't drink—it's poisoned!"—prompting Julian to lunge forward and knock over the tainted glass. From then on, he continues to act as a savior: rescuing a deranged retired service dog named Ranger, nursing a starving thoroughbred back to health, and ultimately helping Alessandra reclaim her lost shares and territory—all while winning her heart.
