Darius Cross, known in the underworld as "DC," is a 29-year-old assassin with a reputation for precision and cold efficiency. A former Marine dishonorably discharged after refusing to execute an unlawful order, Darius grew up in the harsh environment of foster care, never meeting his real family and later disowned by his foster family. Taken under the wing of Victor Kane, a former intelligence operative, Darius was molded into the perfect assassin, mastering the arts of combat, stealth, and infiltration. Now, he operates on the fringes of society, taking high-stakes contracts from the shadows.
Hired by the CIA for a sensitive mission, Darius faces an unexpected moral dilemma when he discovers his target is a former CIA analyst and her three young children, all possessing critical information that could expose a massive conspiracy within the agency. Choosing to protect the innocent family rather than eliminate them, Darius goes on the run, evading elite operatives sent to silence them all. As he navigates a treacherous path filled with danger and betrayal, Darius must confront his own demons and seek redemption by uncovering the truth, battling against the very institution that once betrayed him. "Shadow of Deception" is a thrilling tale of action, suspense, and the quest for justice.

A Bad Boy's Brother (Book #2)
"What's going on?" "Nothing. Please just keep jogging or something." "What're you hiding, Kelsey?" Her eyes searched mine, then very slowly she gave in. "Um...if I tell you...can you promise that you won't be angry? And that you won't freak out and punch the poor guy?" "Why would I...are you cheating on Jason?" "What?" "Is that guy the person you're cheating on Jason with?" I demanded angrily. "He has been nothing but good to you, Kelsey, how could you just cheat on him? He's a good guy!" "No! Ryder, that's not what this is!" For whatever reason, I believed her. "Fine," I said eventually. "I swear not to punch the guy if you tell me what's going on." "Um...it'd be kind of easier to show you than to tell you." I walked with Kelsey around the bench, and the guy stood up, looking down at me with very familiar eyes. Corey. I was looking up at Corey. Sorry Kelsey. And then I punched him. Book two, following A Bad Boy's Worst Nightmare. It's been almost a year since Corey left, leaving Ryder completely broken and alone. Now, he appears to be back once she sees him in the park. But when she's made to understand that the boy is in fact Corey's twin brother, she allows herself to let her guard down a little. But could trusting the brother of the boy that destroyed her heart really be the best idea? Or would he be just like his brother--the complete and total destruction of everything decent in Ryder's life?Lengkap

Camilla has never truly disappeared. Raised to kill, renamed to survive, she becomes the prized weapon of the very order her father once fought against.

But as the lines blur between duty and vengeance, love and manipulation, both must navigate a twisted web of betrayal, power, and a truth that could shatter everything. As their paths collide again, both will have to choose between the past that shaped them-and a future that might just ruin them. Because in a world ruled by secrets, the most dangerous weapon isn't a bullet. It's the heart. Thank you for sticking around. I hope you read till the end.
