Broken Crown by MJ Crouch

I was raised to be a mafia wife. All that was expected of me was to look beautiful and stay quiet.
Until I was forced to become queen of the Marcosa mafia empire.
In order to survive, I’ve had to put away the most feminine parts of myself and turn ruthless, strategic, and deadly. Even though it’s left me completely alone.
Now a new enemy hides in the shadows, determined to destroy my empire—destroy me—piece by piece. And I have no idea who I can trust.
Until three men become the very foundation of my survival:
Greyson – My best friend, my second-in-command, my savior. The one I always needed but couldn’t have.
Dominic – My new underboss with molten eyes and a smile made for war. He brings out a gentle side in me I don’t know if I can afford.
Nate – My good Samaritan who is also a weapon, a killer—I can’t let myself forget that. But resisting him isn’t an option.
These men will burn the world to the ground to keep me safe.
But that may not be enough.
