"Once you've set up your life and you're living comfortably, you're done."
"But what if I just can't stop?"
~
What do you get when you have a prestigious academy for those with deadly talents, a race around the world to win a competition to be the next heir of an international, multi-billion company, and teenage hormones on the lose?
A mess, and a whole lot of misunderstandings, especially when the competition is full of personal battles.
There can't be anything more messy once the odd and cold Daxton James enters the picture, the ultimate heartthrob and possibly the only person in the world who can manage to make the strong and bubbly Ara Ansley cry.
Three best friends on a hunt to kill, more guys on the way, and not to mention the competition with a prize that can save lives if used correctly. And let's not forget the old janitor who keeps stalking everyone in the race.
Complications, complications, and more complications. Where is that happy ever after everyone ordered?

Perfect Fate ✔ (Moved To Inkitt)
Wattpad Creator! Happy and proud. HIM: Staying the night? Not my thing. Hearts and flowers? Boring. Falling in love? Not anytime soon. Settling down? Off the table. Getting married? You're kidding me, right? That was me before the night we first met. Because, well, meeting a hot chick that made me hard just by looking at her was definitely not in my plans when I sneaked out of a woman's apartment after what was already a long night. Taking her home and getting her a chocolate cake, though, was kind of intentional. But falling for her? Boy, that was pretty much inevitable. HER: He came out of nowhere, literally. I was there, sitting on that bench, barefoot and crying and just getting my heart broken in peace and silence. Then he appeared, all mad and furious and sexy and tall and just drool-worthy! And just like that, despite my poor attempts of escaping him, he had me wrapped in his world. A crazy yet heart-fluttering world, that I have absolutely no intentions of leaving anytime soon. ------- Character development is a main theme in this book.
