"If you would be so kind as to remind me why we're here?"

"'Cause this is our best shot at survival."

"And if we miss the shot?"

"Well then we're both screwed, aren't we?"

It's 2020, and the world is teetering on the edge of a third global war. With the political face in shambles, leaders of nations across the world are being assassinated by a team known only as 'S.A.V.I.O.U.R' or, as British Intelligence likes to call them, 'the wankers who are causing more trouble than Brexit ever did.' 

That's where Sebastian Morozov comes in. Cornered one day after his political History class at Edinburgh university, by a fire obsessed dude called Lin who won't tell him anything except how much he's going to get paid, Sebastian stupidly agrees to help investigate the murders, and try to put a stop to them. 

With society on the brink of World War Three, Sebastian must battle against death, love, debt and a weapon that could cause humanity's extinction once and for all.

Blaze growled annoyed yet confused. "Hey! I am not a kid! I am a teenager! I am seventeen!" I retorted just as annoyed. "I wasn't talking to you," he snapped at me glaring. I gave him my lovely middle finger, he narrowed his eyes muttering something under his breath. "Please, do not kill each other, his mother would sue me," Bubbles told nonchalantly, his arm around Tori. ------ This amazing cover was made by @black-magic I'm always editing this book, so please, excuse the spams.

✔️ | "I have half the mind to drop you right here and fuck you against this wall, but I can think of some better things we can do in the bed." I replied, speaking sensually in his ear. "Well get to it then, professor." For years I was living my dream as an archaeologist, travelling the world with the love of my life. Everything was magnificent until we made a discovery that resulted in the death of my soul mate. Now at the age of 35, my life consists of teaching History as a professor at the University of California in Berkeley, CA. Living the same old, consistent routine on repeat. That is until a cocky young man catches my eye. He's beautiful, confident, and a pain in my ass. He's ignited a flame deep in my bones. A flame I thought would never be lit again. Maybe, just maybe I can find my happy ending. ... That is, if it isn't ripped out from under me by my daunting past.
