In the Shadow of My Bad Boy (On Hold)

Alone. That's all I've ever felt, every since my brother... Nothing can fill the emptiness inside my soul that was left by him. My brother never leaves my mind. But it feels like he is still here, cause I see him everyday... in that boy... in Him.

Taisia has a life secret from everyone, even her best friend. Everyone at school sees her as just a normal girl with a great life. They don't even know that she is famous in Russia, where she is originally from and works as a model. She moved to America after the long search of her brother's murderer. But her secrets are threatened when a new Russian transfer student comes to her school.

Alexei has a secret life too, far darker than Taisia's. As an ex-assassin, he was forced to move to America to get out of his killing ways and live a normal life. Years before he failed a mission that he seemed to never recover from. When he moves to America, he never thought he'd meet Russia's star beauty queen who also happens to be a dark reminder from his assassin days.

As Taisia tries to make Alexei keep her secrets he tries to keep his biggest secret from getting to her. As he keeps toying with her, he becomes more and more mysterious in Taisia's eyes. They share similar pasts, but Alexei seems to cast a far larger and darker shadow than Taisia could ever imagine.
