Annalise "AJ" Jefferies, the head editor of the Neill Newspaper Company in New York City, has been working hard her whole life to get to the bottom of things, informing the people of what's going on locally and internationally; when flowers seem to bloom in her love life with her long-time friend, Scott Taylors, things get in the way and she finds herself in the middle between a rogue assassin on the run and the corporation that's hunting him. She has to trust a co-worker within the company, Seth Wellington, who's been helping and protecting her from harm; soon she'll find out his true identity and past, but will she accept him?
Draco Reese lived a normal life until the age of 18. On New Years Eve, he made a deal with, who he thought was the devil. He was recruited and forced to train as an assassin; the corporation even turned him and others into what is now called, "Phantoms" - human beings with extraordinary powers that you only saw in movies. After three years of flawless obedience, Draco cut ties with the corporation and has been on the run ever since, killing those that tempted to kill him. After taking out a target, his childhood friend, Annalise, became endangered - how or why she was being targeted, he didn't know, but he knew he'd do anything and risk it all just to keep her safe, even if it was to pretend to be someone else.
