He Gave My Wedding to Her Family

From the back cover

Two hours before the wedding, Valentina sees the officiant's program: the slot meant for her father's speech has been given to Salvatore Falcone, the father of Marco's childhood friend Gianna. Her dad's half-month of timed practice is reduced to a single line of thanks. When she objects, Marco calls Sal an elder who deserves his dignity and tells her her own father is family, so he won't hold a grudge.

Marco has spent seven years soothing her anger with small kindnesses, certain she will always give way. He signs the new program himself, promises to coax her later, and quietly tells Gianna it will be fine. The screen shows Gianna's family beside Marco while her father's video is cut to seconds.

Valentina has already decided not to marry him. Yet she stays, waiting to hear the three pages her father prepared, the words she never heard in her last life.
