Benjamin Ripley isn't your average sixteen-year-old spy school recruit.
As the grandson of legendary spy Theodore Ripley, Ben has been trained in espionage since he was two years old. When he arrives at the CIA Academy of Espionage, he's not the awkward newbie-he's a force to be reckoned with. Muscular, skilled, and devastatingly competent, Ben catches everyone's attention, especially that of Erica Hale, the academy's infamous Ice Queen and the most beautiful girl he's ever seen.
But Ben's arrival coincides with something far more sinister. His grandfather has discovered SPYDER-a ruthless international crime organization-has stolen a tactical nuclear warhead and plans to detonate it in Washington D.C. during the State of the Union address. With millions of lives at stake and a mole inside the CIA, Ben and Erica must form an unlikely partnership to stop the attack.
As they race against time through dangerous missions, intense firefights, and impossible odds, the walls around Erica's heart begin to crumble. When they face what they believe are their final moments together in front of a ticking nuclear bomb, they're forced to confront not just the threat of annihilation-but their feelings for each other.
With only minutes to spare, two detonation codes to crack, and SPYDER agents hunting them through a Philadelphia warehouse, Ben and Erica must trust each other completely. Because if they fail, it's not just their lives on the line-it's the entire Eastern seaboard.
Action. Espionage. Romance. And a nuclear countdown that won't stop.

Spy School: Gone Dark
Five years ago, Ben Ripley vanished during a covert Arctic mission gone wrong. The world - and Spy School - believed he was dead. Everyone except Erica Hale. Despite the evidence, Erica never accepted Ben's death. Her instincts - and her heart - told her he was still out there. She was right. After being ambushed and kidnapped by a secret coalition of their old enemies, Ben managed to escape - wounded, alone, and forced to disappear. Weeks later, through an encrypted channel known only to the two of them, Ben reached out to Erica one last time. He told her the truth: the ambush had been a setup to remove him from the picture, paving the way for a new global operation years in the making. To stop it, Ben would have to vanish completely. With Erica's reluctant blessing, Ben fled across the world to Japan, where he assumed a new identity with the help of Jessica Shang, an unlikely ally who gave him shelter and a cover life. Hidden from every intelligence network, Ben was soon drawn into the shadows - recruited by a secret organization that trained him to become one of the most skilled covert operatives alive. Five years later, Ben Ripley is no longer the awkward kid who tripped through Spy School missions. He's taller, colder, fluent in six languages, and scarred inside and out - a master of survival shaped by silence and regret. But when he discovers that the same organization that hunted him now has its sights set on Erica Hale, Ben must step out of the shadows and face his past. Because some missions never end. And some connections can't be erased - no matter how long you've been gone.Complete

Spy School Northern Assassin
I rewrote Spy School Goes North, different plot, but still based on the description of the original book. This is a good book for people who felt let down by the actual book or just wanted more character fluff like I did. It's a little bit mature, but not really

Spy School Legacy
After legendary spies Ben and Erica Hale finally settle into a rare moment of peace, they believe the most dangerous chapters of their lives are behind them. They're wrong. Their son, Jake Hale, is fourteen, quiet, and far too exceptional for a normal life. In middle school, he's already a mathematical genius on par with his father, Level 16 in advanced mathematics, while also inheriting his mother's terrifying combat instincts. With a photographic memory, unnatural adaptability, and an instinct for fighting that borders on frightening, Jake learns faster than anyone around him-whether he wants to or not. But genius doesn't make life simple. When Jake gets into a violent fight at the end of the school year while defending a classmate, he's suspended for two weeks. Instead of punishing him, his parents recognize the truth: normal school was never going to suit him. So they offer him a choice. Spy School. There, Jake reunites with his older (adopted) sister Yuki Hale, now a fifth-year student and one of the academy's top operatives. Thrown into a world of elite training, deadly simulations, and ruthless competition, Jake must learn to survive among prodigies, soldiers, hackers, and future legends. Along the way, he finds new friends, powerful rivals, and one particularly dangerous girl who might be both. But the academy is no longer just a school. A new organization-even more secretive and more terrifying than the long-defeated Obsidian Directive-has begun to move in the shadows. Their first strike is devastating: a 100-million-dollar bounty is placed on every member of the team that once saved the world-Ben, Erica, and their closest allies. Hunted by every assassin, mercenary, and criminal syndicate on the planet, the adults are forced into hiding, which leaves only one line of defense. The students. Now, Jake, Yuki, and their friends must do the impossible: uncover an enemy no one can see, stop a war no one believes is coming, and survive long enough to grow up.
