"Do not fall in love with that girl, agent. That's an order."
"I won't," I promised.
But I'd never been good at following orders.
⚡️⚡️⚡️
Revenge is 17-year-old Seth's first and only priority. Ever since an Anomaly - an evil, destructive being created from mutations to the human genome - murdered his father six years ago, he has trained at a special government facility to avenge his father's death by hunting Anomalies himself.
But when he receives his first undercover mission - to pose as the son of two other agents in the small, rural town of Eastbrook - he meets a girl who makes him wonder if there is more to life than vengeance.
Unfortunately, the danger in Eastbrook is growing. And when an Anomaly threatens the life of his new companion, Seth will be forced to choose between love and revenge.

As ancient powers awaken and enemies close in from every side, my heart becomes its own battlefield. Three dangerously irresistible men each claim a place in my destiny-but trusting the wrong one could cost me everything. Because in a world built on lies... The greatest threat isn't the monsters lurking in the dark. It's discovering that I may be one of them.Complete

The Facility | ✔️
Dunwich Academy for Boys and Dunwich Academy for Girls annually send their Year Eleven students to The Facility - an off-school campus that, along with teaching normal classes, tests the students' hormonal and pheromonal strengths. What I didn't expect was to run into a mysterious boy I've been dreaming about for the last three years. *** I do use swearing in this book but purely because of the characters' personalities. I am not the characters but just write what I imagine the character to say in a moment like that. Thanks.
