Elena "Viper" Vitali earned her nickname through a lethal combination of beauty and deadly precision. As one of the most feared assassins in the underworld, she's known for being ruthless, cunning, and unflinchingly loyal to her family-the Vitali Mafia, one of the most powerful syndicates in Europe. Raised in the shadows of the Mafia empire, Elena has always been more comfortable with a gun in her hand than with any notion of love. She doesn't trust easily, and she doesn't let anyone get too close. But when a mission brings her face-to-face with the dark, brooding leader of a rival Mafia family, everything changes.
Adrian De Luca, the powerful and merciless head of the De Luca crime family, has been Elena's enemy for as long as she can remember. Their families have been at war for years, but when an unexpected threat forces them into an uneasy alliance, Elena is thrust into Adrian's dangerous orbit. From the moment they meet, sparks fly between them-dangerous, intoxicating, and impossible to ignore.
Adrian is everything Elena despises: arrogant, controlling, and too powerful for his own good. But there's something about him that draws her in, something that makes her question her loyalties and her heart. He sees through her cold exterior to the woman beneath-the one who's been hardened by betrayal and violence, but who still yearns for something real.
As they are forced to work together to take down a common enemy, Elena and Adrian's sizzling chemistry becomes impossible to resist. But with danger closing in on all sides, their growing connection threatens to ignite a war between their families. The line between enemy and lover blurs as they navigate the treacherous world of Mafia politics, betrayal, and revenge.
His Viper is a dark, intense Mafia romance about two lethal enemies bound by passion and power. It's a story of trust, redemption, and the seductive allure of danger. As Elena and Adrian's relationship deepens, they'll have to decide if they can overcome the past and the blood that stands between them-or if their love is destined to destroy everything they've fought for. In a world where enemies are everywhere and love is the most dangerous game of all, can the Viper find her heart in the arms of the one man she was sworn to destroy?
