Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Arizona

My girlfriend and I bought a house 10 years ago. The lien and title are both in both our names. The relationship has gone sours because of her drug abuse and having an affair, and I want to end the relationship but keep the house. I do not think she is going to be a willing participant however, so I do not know what to do. We have never been married. What can I do to have her removed, and also have the house in my name only
