Her Empire

From award-winning author E.M. Shue comes a dark, enemies-to-lovers mafia romance with a deadly heroine, a hitman with a code, and a love that could burn empires.

Anatonia Lupo was raised to destroy the Morello family. But when the time came, she turned against the Bratva leader who forged her into a weapon and pledged her loyalty to the Morellos, leaving the assassin world behind.

Vitaly Kuznetsov is a killer with three rules. Don't harm women, children, or the innocent. But Anatonia is a Bratva-trained assassin with a brutal reputation and a kill list that includes men Vitaly swore to protect. He should end her. Instead, he's drawn to her. She's his match in every way.

When Vitaly uncovers the truth about her past, his target becomes his cause. He'll scorch the earth to protect her. And to save the man she's fallen for, Anatonia will step out of the shadows and kill the monster who made her.

Their love is as volatile as the world that shaped them and as deadly as the garrotes Anatonia once wielded without mercy. Born into violence and power, she was meant to rule. But she'll destroy it all for love.
