Queen of Blades (Dixie Mafia) by Victoria Jayne

A Romantasy Bookstore top seller, Queen of Blades (Dixie Mafia) by Victoria Jayne is a high-stakes mafia romance where the man hired to kill her might be the only one who can keep her alive.

Paul Ricci never meant to spark a war between syndicates—especially not over a woman. But when a bounty lands on Harper Myers, he takes the job out of “respect.” They have history, and Paul figures if she has to die, he’ll at least give her a clean end.

Too bad his heart doesn’t follow orders.

Harper grew up around outlaw-biker politics, so she knows exactly how ugly organized crime can get. She ran from it years ago, rebuilt her life as a lawyer, and swore she’d never look back. Then she’s dragged home to Oklahoma and right into the crosshairs—because someone wants her dead. Not personal. Just business.

And the man who once took a bullet for her?
Now he’s supposed to put one between her eyes.

So what is Paul—Harper’s savior or her executioner? And when the line between protection and possession starts to blur… does her heart even care?
