The Myrrh Boss
(2024)(The fifth book in the Essentially Sweet Romance series)
A novel by Elysian Hunt
Autumn Braxton’s biggest mistake?
Falling for Anthony Juliano—a man who seemed perfect until she learned he was Buffalo’s mafia kingpin. Now she’s on the run, framed for crimes she didn’t commit, hunted by a man who once made her believe in happily ever afters.
Her trust is shattered, her heart bruised, but her spirit? Unbroken.
When Autumn discovers Anthony’s underground dog fighting ring, something raw and fierce snaps awake. She won’t just survive—she’ll fight.
She’ll save the dogs, expose the truth, and reclaim her life. But this isn’t a battle she can win alone.
Enter Cooney, a street kid with big plans and an even bigger mouth. He tells her there’s one man who might turn the tide: Billa.
Anthony’s right-hand man. The same mafia muscle that made the boss untouchable. Billa should terrify her—yet he’s the only one who looks her in the eye and sees more than broken pieces.
He’s loyal, infuriating, protective, and oh so tempting. But can Autumn trust again, or is falling for Billa just another mistake waiting to happen?
This is The Myrrh Boss: a sweet mafia rom com with forced proximity, redemption, suspense, trust issues that feel real, and a big-hearted bulldog who knows who to love. If you crave mafia romance that stays clean but keeps you laughing, gasping, and rooting for a feel-good HEA, this is your next obsession.
