Ivy is a 20 year old assassin working for The Red Roses, a secret agency, the best in the assassin world.

Getting into deep trouble is one of Ivy's strong points and always seem to land her in life or death situations. One day she knows this habit will get her killed but she won't wait around.

With the Red Roses being first class assassins, their leader is, understandably, paranoid at all times. This is trouble for Ivy when she is accused of selling out her agency, her second home, and is forced to escape into hiding. Her hiding place isn't incredibly amazing so she isn't particularly surprised when a rival agency finds her and gives her an offer.

It's an offer she can't refuse. Join the Eagle Strike and her and her family are put under their protection. 

But there's a catch. She has to help them take down the Red Roses. And she's doubtful even she would be capable of attacking those she considered family. Even if she is the best of the best.

Can she go through with the offer laid out before her? Or will she crack under the pressure?

Orphaned as a child when an accident claimed her family, Ivy has lived with only one burning purpose: revenge. She's determined to bring down the powerful families and figures who destroyed her life, but her single-minded quest for vengeance comes at a cost. When a crime she didn't commit lands her in prison, her life takes an unexpected turn when Caitlyn Kiramman, the brilliant and idealistic enforcer from Piltover, arrives in Zaun. Caitlyn, driven by a personal mission to take down Jinx and Zauns violent gangs, recognizes something in Ivy-a fierce independence, an intelligence that could be useful, and a potential ally in the fight for justice. She's struck a deal: if Ivy helps her infiltrate Zaun's criminal underworld and gather crucial information, Caitlyn will use her position to free Ivy from prison and clear her name. The lines between right and wrong blur as Ivy faces a choice: take down her enemies from the inside, or tear apart the fragile alliance that might offer her a chance at freedom. As Ivy navigates this world, she finds herself walking a thin line between revenge and redemption, questioning her beliefs and her thirst for vengeance as she grows closer to Caitlyn, who represents everything Ivy once believed was her enemy. Together, they uncover dangerous secrets that could change both cities forever, but Ivy knows-betrayal could be lurking just around the corner. The question remains: can Ivy achieve her revenge without losing herself in the process? Or will the price of vengeance prove too high?

A forbidden love affair can get dangerous. Especially when one person is an undercover FBI agent, and the other is her target. **** Ivy Warren is always prepared for whatever life throws at her - as an FBI agent she has to be. But what she isn't prepared for is to be sent undercover with a whole new identity as the PA to the wealthy billionaire bachelor, Jace Dyer. Ivy learns that there's more to Jace than meets the eye and that he's not always cold and distant, which is how everyone sees him. In fact, Jace doesn't show her that side of him at all, and it makes Ivy like Jace not as her target, but as a friend - or even more. Ivy begins to unravel his web of secrets he holds closest to him and realizes that they're more alike and connected than they could ever imagine. The two both know they feel this undeniable attraction to each other, but they struggle when their attraction turns into more. Ivy and Jace are both keeping secrets from each other.
