Faith Mitchell was never confident. She was happy to blend into the background, much to the protest of her friends. At 16, her life was a normal teenage cliche. She was in love with Jace, the obnoxious player who she couldn't have, and her biggest worry was whether or not he would finally come to his senses and see that she really was the one for him. That is until she is kidnapped and recruited by a secret agency of assassins. She is torn away from her normal teenage life and thrown into a world of guns, knifes and criminals. The agency mold her into the perfect killing machine, and at 19 she is no longer the shy girl that was snatched away from her uncomplicated life, but a ruthless killer who will stop at nothing to complete whatever mission she is on. Then, the agency has a new mission which involves Faith returning to her hometown, and facing her friends, family and the very boy who broke her heart just before it turned into stone. What will happen once Faith comes face to face with Jace? Will the obnoxious player be able to reach out and get the old Faith back without pressing any of her wrong buttons, considering that the shy girl he once knew now has a gun.

Jenna Lakes has always been the smart, collected, and cynical older sister...and the complete opposite of her little sister - the bubbly, sweet and caring advice-columnist, Leanne Lakes. When Leanne leaves for a three-month honeymoon with the love of both sisters' lives, Jenna finds herself struggling with her private heartbreak as she fills in as "Jaime," the gender-neutral name her sister uses for her wildly popular advice column. There's just one problem - readers of the "Dear Jaime" column have come to expect compassion, sweetness, and, in Jenna's opinion, "puke-inducing froofiness." And Jenna has no intention of continuing that for three months. As her unusual Dear Jaime responses begin to gain public attention, Jenna must decide what she wants: she can either choose to stay safe by pushing away chances of friendship in the workplace and chances of love in the form of the easy-to-look-at Kenneth Owens... or, possibly, choose to follow her own advice and live fearlessly and fully.

She is the Chosen One. He is Gabriel Gavino, il prossimo Mafioso Don - the next in line. Before she saves anyone they're going to save each other.
