Shane and Agnes are getting married, Lisa Livia is standing in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower in love with a Duke (sort of), and Phoebe is on the trail of a traitor.
Of course, none of that is as simple as it appears as the after-effects of the Red Wedding reverberate at Two Rivers, Lisa Livia's romantic interlude is interrupted by an attempted killing and Phoebe learns getting to the traitor is going to involve going through an obstacle course of the world's most dangerous, and eccentric, assassins.
Add in Sam the Cleaner, who is more than he appears, and Bert, an apparently washed up barfly, who was, once upon a time, one of the world's most deadly operatives and the chase takes unexpected twists and turns as the quest for vengeance becomes something much, much more.

The Wedding Plan
What happens when we put together two workaholics with their hearts closed to love? Eleanor, a clumsy twenty-two-year-old, had everything in her life planned out and was focused only on her career and everything was going smoothly until she tried to walk into the same elevator as Sebastian Crain. After that, she thought she would not meet him face to face again, until she started working at his company and he made her an outrageous request. At twenty-six, Sebastian had just replaced his father as CEO of Crain enterprises. Not only was his professional life in total chaos, but the media had also depicted him as having an extremely active romantic life when, in fact, it was inexistent. But everything changed when he received his sister's wedding invitation and was told that he needed to attend with a date. To him, Eleanor looked perfect for the part. They only had to pretend to be a couple and attend a wedding. But what will happen once they realize that what they have is a lot more than a fake relationship? P.S: English is not my first language, so if you read something of mine, please be kind in the comments and constructive criticism is really appreciated.Concluida

What the ton doesn't know is that Fabian is biting to return to his previous life. What people believed to be a holiday around the continent, was actually Fabian's cover as he worked as an Agent of the Crown. His new status as a Duke however, did not make him want to step down as an Agent just yet, especially with a recent case that specifically embroils a series of planned heists within the ton. --- As the two are thrown together in a series of circumstances that was mostly chance, sometimes fate, and with a dash of secrecy, how would the turmoil change their lives?Concluida
