Divine Empire (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798256021993)

Anya Morozov has spent the past three years avoiding the world. After being captured and torn apart in all of the worst ways possible, the Bratva Princess disappeared from mafia society.

Despite the ghosts of her past continuing to haunt Anya, nothing could keep her away from her brother's wedding. She speaks to no one and stays safely in her seat. Flanked by her protective family, she does her best to get through the evening unscathed. Until she's asked to dance.

Matteo Moretti finds himself drawn to the angelic Russian princess after only one glance. He knows she's been through more hell than anyone ever should. In fact, he knows more than the whispers of the mafia world claim to. Their siblings are now married, and through that connection, he's found himself wondering often about the reclusive girl who avoids all men.

He should leave her alone to her solitude. But as the youngest of nine Italian mafia sons, Matteo isn't much for avoiding risk. He wants to meet Anya, and he's willing to do anything to make her comfortable. Including handcuffing himself to dance with her.

What begins as a bold gesture transforms into a tentative friendship. With distance and past trauma keeping them physically apart, it's strange how close they begin to feel.

This is an emotional mafia romance.
