❝she is fire; he is ice❞

Cunning, forlorn spy Zara Dubois knew that her life would never be normal. After growing up as the daughter of the head of a spy agency, normal was never an option. It wasn't after her mother died that she learned her entire life had been a lie. The world that she once knew fell like shattered glass at her feet. Now, with her life in danger and a book of secrets in her arms, she's running from the very people who created the monster inside of her.

Nerdy, comic book-obsessed boy Silas Bridges would rather keep to himself; he's as introverted as they come. His rather normal days are spent working at a rusty old bookstore, daydreaming about the girls that never fall in love with him and the heroic things he's never done. All Silas wants is a chance. He wants to be a hero, just like the ones he grew up reading about.

Zara was certain that there was only one way out of the mess she had been born into:

To stop her beating heart. 

Silas thought he was real heroic saving a girl from a burning building. 

Zara and Silas-both couldn't have been more wrong.

Draft • unedited. • • • "And I do love it when a man is at the pointy end of my dagger." I push the blade in more, a sliver of skin parting as red flows between the crevices and blesses the weapon. He only grins wider, "Show no mercy, Angel." He rears up, lips capturing mine and pulling my face closer to his, his hand winding itself around my neck to hold me in place as he draws my whole being into his with only his poisoned tongue and daring words. . . "The enemy of my enemy is my friend." "The enemy of my enemy, is my enemy tomorrow." I counter. • • • They took everything from me. Hunt me. Underestimate me. I have nothing to lose . . . Until he shows up. He is my undoing. The unknown. I can't let him in. • • • He thought I had been broken, consumed in his games. Loyal. At least I was . . . Until I saw her. She is my redemption. She is the job. I have to kill her. • • • Trigger warnings - this book is a lot darker than Alliance and as such deals with descriptions of torture, assault, murder and mention of SA. If this is not for you, feel free to not read. There is some sex scenes throughout this book so please read at your own risk. The main character/s are also very morally grey so if you don't like characters torturing others, this isn't the book for you. • • • Cover by Quirky Circe on Etsy Started writing 09/19 - published 02/20 - finished 03/20.

[Watty's Shortlist & WATTPAD PICKS -- Up and Coming List 06.07.2018] Now Available on Amazon!!! His hands moved down to cradle her neck. "I only have one request if you're going to keep me in suspense all day long." "What's that?" The movement of her lips drew his eyes down. "Let me kiss you again?" That voice, breathy and low, set Taly's heart racing. His lips twitched at the corners-he could hear it. Now that he could use his magic, he knew exactly the kind of effect he was having on her. But he didn't move. He waited. Her choice. She set the pace. Taking a shaky breath, she jerked her head. Yes. *** Magic marked her for suffering. Magic will save her. Magic will lead her home. On Tempris, time magic is outlawed, and suspected time mages are hunted. Humans are second-class citizens, shunned by the immortal fey that live on the island. They even have a name for their kind: Shardless. Taly is one of the lucky humans. Taken in by a fey noble and his family, she's lived a good life, surrounded by people she loves. But when an accidental brush with magic causes her to see things -- ghostly apparitions that give her small glimpses into the future -- it has deadly consequences. The Sanctorum has returned to the island, and if they find her, they'll kill her. And anyone that tries to protect her. This includes her best friend, Skye. He was the boy that saved her. The man she knew she could never have. And when he refuses to let her go, their actions might hold the power to reshape the world. An ancient evil is rising, and in order to protect those that she cares for, Taly will have to sacrifice everything. Including her heart.

In a quiet small-town library where silence reigns and life moves at a gentle pace, Lila, a devoted and innocent librarian, lives a life of routine. Surrounded by books, she dreams of adventure but has settled into the calm predictability of her days. Her world is turned upside down when Ethan, a seemingly dull and reserved man, joins the library staff. Ethan, however, is no ordinary librarian. Beneath his unremarkable demeanor lies the identity of a covert spy, working undercover to dismantle a dangerous criminal organization that uses the library as a front. Focused on his mission, Ethan is unprepared for Lila-her sweetness, purity, and curiosity-a woman who slowly starts to captivate him, threatening to unravel his carefully constructed cover. As Lila and Ethan's quiet interactions in the library lead to charged moments of intimacy, Lila finds herself falling for the mysterious newcomer. She feels desire awakening in her, an excitement she's never known before. But as their secret encounters intensify, so do Lila's suspicions that Ethan is hiding something. With every stolen glance and every whispered conversation, she is pulled deeper into a world she doesn't yet understand. When Lila stumbles upon clues about Ethan's true identity, she is forced to confront the truth about the man she loves: he's a spy, living a life of danger and deception. Heartbroken and confused, Lila must decide whether to turn away from the man who has awakened a new passion in her or to embrace the dark thrill of his world. As their lives collide in a whirlwind of romance, danger, and secrets, Lila and Ethan are bound by a love neither expected, but both are willing to risk everything for.
