Seventeen-year-old Camila "Cami" Morales thought her biggest problems were surviving high school and Miami's summer heat.
But when she uncovers her family's secret connection to La Sombra - a hidden global network protecting cultural treasures and fighting corruption - Cami's life transforms into a whirlwind of international missions, daring heists, ancient mysteries, and deadly enemies.
Now part of a young, diverse team of new recruits, Cami must navigate secret cities, crumbling ruins, and the dark underbelly of the art world - all while trying to uncover the truth behind her parents' disappearance, outsmart a powerful rival society known as Les Ombres Noires, and prove she deserves a place among the legends of La Sombra.
But when loyalties are tested - and when one of her closest friends may be tied to the enemy - Cami must decide who she is:
The girl who follows the legacy she's been given...
Or the young woman who forges a new future of her own.

Are you mine?
We've all heard about 'the main character'. The type of person who lives through the most dramatic and improbable situations, and finds the kind of epic romance you only see in works of fiction. Which makes you think about how unrealistic love like that is. I used to think the same thing until I met him. Until I met 'the bad boy' that, as it turns out, wasn't that bad at all, just simply...a boy. A boy with an easy smile, a charming personality and looks so enticing that I couldn't keep my eyes off of him if I tried. A boy whose shoulders were starting to slump with the weight of his past and his family. A boy who believed that the only way to survive was by putting a lock on his heart and chaining it down to a place so deep inside of him that no one could ever reach it again. A boy who, for reasons I'll never comprehend, placed the key inside my palm and didn't shy away when I tried to free his hidden heart from its restraints. A boy who made me the main character of my own story. A story I never want to forget, and which begged to be put on paper. This is that story. ~~~ #1 love triangle 8/26/2019 #1 teen romance 11/4/2019 #1 mystory 7/27/2020 #1 teen drama 9/9/2020 #1 goodgirl 9/12/2020 Cover by @alexandramar1e Contains swearing and mature language.Complete
