Empire Of Two (A Mafia Romance Novel About Shared Power and Dangerous Love)

Dante Accardi built his empire on fear. Every rival who challenged him ended up in a grave or on their knees, and after a decade at the top of New York’s underworld, he’d stopped expecting anyone to do either.
Then Cassandra Reyes walked into his territory like she already owned it.
She isn’t a wife to be claimed or a girl to be protected. Cassandra runs her own organization, built from nothing after her father was gunned down by men just like Dante, and she has no intention of bowing to anyone, least of all the don who’s spent months trying to push her out of his city.
What starts as a turf war becomes something neither of them planned for. Every negotiation turns into a battle of wills. Every confrontation leaves them closer than either wants to admit. Dante has never met a woman who doesn’t flinch when he raises his voice, and Cassandra has never met a man ruthless enough to actually be her equal.
Their families expect a bloodbath. Their enemies are counting on it. Instead, Dante and Cassandra strike a different kind of deal: not surrender, but alliance. Two empires becoming one, forged in a partnership as dangerous as it is undeniable.
But merging two criminal dynasties makes them the biggest target in the country, and the men who thought they could pick off two rival dons separately are about to learn what happens when their targets fall in love instead of falling apart.
Together, they’re no longer just powerful. They’re unstoppable. And every enemy who underestimated them is about to find out exactly what that costs.
