Agent 007 has had to deal with a lot in her life, but school wasn't one of them. She works at the International Intelligence Agency, also known as the IIA. She's a closed-off, cold-hearted interrogator, who no longer believes in love. She works alone, because she can't stand other people getting in her way. However, her past seems to have its claws on her, and it's not willing to let go of her mind anytime soon.
When the chief has no more field agents who are willing to accept Assignment #428, he decides to send Seven, as she is called, into the field, with a new team. This isn't the first time that particular situation occurred, so without knowing the details, she was sent off into a jet to the Big Apple, New York City.
What she didn't expect was having to go to school, as she had already finished her education, but she didn't mind, nor was she all that surprised. After all, she was trained not to be surprised.
What surprised her was when a boy, who is the supposed 'target', finds out her secret first week into school. How? He says he's observant. She says he's a spy.
When the reason of her parents' death get thrown into the mix of things, she slowly starts to realize this isn't a normal mission. Far from it.
It's live or die baby.

"Hey babe. What's your name?"
I glared at the totally rude guy in front of me, but the chief said I had to be reasonable with my new team members, so I answered anyways.
"Seven."
The guys and the one girl suddenly cracked up like I'm the best comedian in the world. "Ok, we all want to be like Seven, but what's your name?"
One other guy scoffed, "No, you all want to be like that creep. Anyways, she's just a myth. It's not like she actually exists. Chief just made her up so we would behave."
"I am pretty sure I am not fake, FYI."
They all stared at me in shock, realization setting in.
"The name's Seven. Any questions?"
""Kitten, you're worried about something, and you cannae lie. You're picking at your hands and looking around to clean up my room. Unlucky for you, my room is very clean," he said, "Now what are you worrying about so much?"
I stopped picking at my cuticles. It was kind of weird that he could see me doing something and read me like a book before I could even realize I was doing it. I felt my heart pound in my chest.
"Well, it's just this whole pretending to date you thing," I shrugged, "How far do we have to take it? Do we have to do it in front of our friends? Do we have to do it in public because obviously we ran into Olivia today and we weren't planning on it. Oh shit, what if she sees you with another girl? I mean, what would happen then? What if she sees me talking to another guy? How long is this going to go on? What if we have to kiss in front of Olivia? I mean, it's not that I don't want to kiss you but--" I rambled on nervously.
Iain smirked and walked towards me, and the next thing I knew, his lips were on mine, and we were kissing."
When Kit's older brother, Ben, finally makes it with the girl he's been crushing on for four years, only to find out she's wary of family, he lies and calls his baby sister his best friend's girlfriend, turning everyone's life upside down. While Kit's struggling with the impending doom of college and parents that could divorce at any second, she's also juggling a fake relationship with her brother's hot best friend, Iain. As if that weren't complicated enough, a chemistry sparks between Iain, igniting flames and destroying the crumbling world around them.
