Description

Juliet Smith has intentionally made her world small.

Her studio apartment, the local bagel shop, and the bookstore she manages are enough. Her predictable routine makes her feel safe—something she hasn't had nearly enough of in her life.

Then one night, a dangerous stranger crashes into her bookstore after closing.

Romeo De Luca was born into the mafia. Darkness, violence, and loyalty are simply parts of the life he's always known. But from the moment he meets the quiet bookstore manager who should be terrified of him—but isn't—staying away from her becomes impossible.

Juliet is soft where Romeo is ruthless, light where his world is dark. Yet beneath her vulnerability is a strength that draws him in, and the dangerous mafia man soon becomes unexpectedly gentle when it comes to her.

Their growing relationship gives Juliet a sense of safety she never expected to find with someone like Romeo. But when danger reaches her, the protective side of Romeo she's come to know gives way to something far more lethal.

Because Romeo might be tender with his Juliet, but anyone who threatens her is about to discover exactly what a possessive mafia man is capable of.

Emotional, protective, and spicy, His Juliet combines a dark mafia world with a surprisingly tender romance centered on trust, healing, and finding safety with the person you least expected. It's the second Empire of Royals book but can be read as a standalone and ends with an HEA. (Google Books)
