"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?
