A story of finding love between three most unlikely people. Harding just wants to play hockey. He wants to block shots, send the puck to the other side of the rink and then go back to his dorm to do homework. And that's what he did for the first two years of college. But then a bumbling little figure skater bumped right into him after practice and wouldn't leave him alone no matter how much he ignored him. He brought along a red head too, who was obviously in a similar position as Harding. But maybe the figure skater could bring a little extra light into both of their lives.

"There's nothing ever certain about life. Sometimes we believe we're winning when, in fact, we only trap ourselves deeper under ruins of our own making." Everything is crumbling in a state of increased uncertainty. Even if for the past year, life seemed to calm down, the lingering state of limbo has Sam and his team on the edge. There's something wrong, something about to happen, and strange vibes are coming from both the Agency, who have been quieter than usual, and Snitch Gravel who plans one final strike against the group. The release of Snitch Gravel's right hand man is the spark needed to detonate the powder keg. Caught helpless and unprepared, the team faces the worst of what Snitch Gravel can throw at them, and the only ones who can end it are the ones who got away. An exhausted Jessie, and a Jimmy who has no recollection of his former self. As Sam tries to navigate the intricate corridors of Snitch Gravel's motivation, everyone must face off with what they feared most. The ghosts of past adventures and the consequences of the life they've made for themselves. Because consequences can never be ignored, and sometimes, you need to be more vicious than the other side in order to survive. 🏯🏯🏯 I know the blurb is super vague, but I really don't want to give anything from this book away 😅 Sequel to Lose Control Epic cover by @italychick

"Why is it always 'why' with you? Grow up already! Not all people are alike. You're good, I'm evil, you're naïve, I know how things are, and you're an idiot while I'm brilliant." With the jungle and Snitch Gravel left behind, Sam Grant thought the crazier part of life was over and he could now focus on his secret agent training and getting to know his new brothers. Before he can even get used to safety and comfort, everything goes downhill: his father goes ballistic, his cousin disappears and him and his brothers are called in to rescue a fellow agent from Snitch Gravel's base. Aside from sending them to battle countless henchmen, the Agency is also keen to keep them in the dark about their most important project - a project Sam and his brothers play a vital part in. Once again on the road, Sam must figure out how to do something he's never done before: infiltrate Snitch Gravel's base stealthily and come out unscathed. *** The story is completed. Sequel to Too Young Even if it's the second book in a series, the story is pretty stand-alone-ish. There are many characters, but it's easy to get the gist of them.
