Nothing is what it seems. All around you there are people hiding secrets from one another. Their spouse, their children or friends, or anyone who might use it against them.
However, there are also those who keep false identities as their secret, working alone or together in the hopes of bettering the world. Dorian Dumont thought he worked better alone. There was only one rule and one he was able to keep: don't interact with anyone. Yet that rule was broken when he met Isla Montgomery and Cheche Ito. He and Isla were drawn together in ways that were hard to define. But spying on the royal family is no place for feelings, especially when they had a missing princess with valuable information to find. Because if they blow their covers, they might end up just like her.
Missing.
Forever.
After she tragically loses her mother, Cassie turns to street fighting-but she soon learns that the biggest fights happen outside the ring.
