Encrypted Hearts
They were chosen to become spies. They didn't expect to fall for each other- or become the only ones who could stop a national crisis. When four elite black belt teens-Onyx, Elina, James, and Jacob-receive unexpected invitations to attend FBSA, a secret FBI-run spy academy hidden deep in the mountains, they think it's just the opportunity of a lifetime. With their karate training, sharp instincts, and tight bond, they're ready to take on whatever mission comes their way. But nothing about FBSA is normal. Not the cryptic instructors. Not the unsolved case of a missing girl. And definitely not the way hearts start beating faster when they're around each other. As the academy dives into weapons, combat, and espionage training, students begin to realize that something bigger-and much darker-is happening beneath the surface. A top-level mission has failed. All adult agents have vanished. The missing girl? She's the daughter of the school's headmaster... and she may be the key to a conspiracy that could destroy everything. Now it's up to the students. Armed with locket-coded maps, spy gadgets, and more feelings than they know how to handle, Onyx, Elina, James, Jacob, and their team must risk everything to uncover the truth. Friendships are tested. Secrets are exposed. And the closer they get to solving the case, the closer they get to each other. But falling in love while saving the world? That might just be the most dangerous mission of all.
