Four women marry into a prosperous Italian family in Camille Aubray’s The Godmothers (William Morrow), $28, a feminist mafia romp set in World War II–era Greenwich Village. In Diane Johnson’s Lorna Mott Comes Home (June 29, Knopf), $28, an art historian divorces her French husband and reconnects with her financially scheming grown children back in California. And don’t let June pass without diving into Tia Williams’ Seven Days in June (Grand Central Publishing), $27, the story of two writers reuniting years after a weeklong affair changed their lives.
