Assassination 101

"That kiss of ours last week? That was just a taste of how amazing I could make you feel, Cassie." He kept eye contact with me as he spoke, not letting me look away and my throat bobbed.

"Who said that kiss was any good?"

He shrugged just as confident as ever. "You did. Body language is everything."

"Wouldn't I have already called you if it was that amazing? Maybe you're not as good as you think you are, Zack."

Jaia's life was not what she expected it to be but, then again, who expected to be working as an assassin for the Italian mafia when they were a child? Adopted by the Capo at a young age, violence and bloodshed was all she'd ever known and that was just how she liked it.

The mafia was her home, the only family she'd ever had and she would have done anything for them. That was until she was assigned her most dangerous mission yet: infiltrate MI5 as a recruit and earn their trust.

As if that wasn't complicated enough, life had to throw in deceit, betrayal and a devilishly charming boy or two to give her the messiest mission imaginable.

Surely nothing could go wrong. Right?
