What happens when your greatest threat and only salvation have the same face? He has a mission. A life she could never be part of, a life she would rather die than go back to. But he can't stay away. And neither can she. He threatens everything she sacrificed so much to build. Her past is so dangerous that she hides it from even herself, and every moment she spends with him slides her backwards into an old life that she told herself she would run from forever, no matter the cost. But he has just changed the game. And maybe--just maybe--she's ready to play. *** Blake Ashton is reckless, intelligent, and his agency's most promising spy. But after a terrible accident, he's forced to lie low, taking another identity as a sleeper agent in a small town. It was supposed to be simple: live as a normal high schooler until his agency activates him for a mission. But that all changed the day she noticed him. Isla Hennigan is a no-nonsense girl with more secrets than even Blake can make sense of, and with her keen eye, she quickly recognizes that things are more than they seem. But even buried pasts don't stay dead, and she finds herself thrust back into everything people gave their lives to help her escape. When secrets from Isla's past come knocking, the two are forced to pair up in a desperate attempt to save both of their lives, but they can't help the irresistible pull between them, an attraction that forces its way between life and death until survival isn't as simple as it seems. Hunted, isolated, with their lives on the line, they're finally forced to face the demons that threaten to consume them whole. And when the monsters finally come for them, it will take more than training to save them.
