At Boulder Cove Academy, three things are certain: The Lawless Rule. The games are dangerous. Nothing is as it seems. I came here expecting to face my bullies with an iron fist. I played their games and won. Now that I’ve earned my place, at the academy and in their home, I should feel safe. But with every past there is a shadow and mine is drawing closer with each step I take. I thought The Lawless were the ones I should fear, but someone far more vicious is watching. The games should be over, but it seems they’ve only just begun.

Bella A pact made. Two orphans who vowed to never part. I was selfish-for once, I had to be. The last time I saw Callum he was standing at the dormer window as I sat in the back seat of a car. His dark eyes foreign to me. The hatred that radiated from his glare shot through me with more force than a silver bullet. In a matter of minutes he had become a stranger. No longer my best friend. He was now a boy with a hollow heart who was headed down a dark path. A path I knew I'd never cross again. Or, so I thought. CallumWe had a deal-always stay together. The day Bella left, I vowed I would find her. And when I did, she would feel what I felt as I watched her pull away into a new life, with a new family. Leaving me behind to endure a life that was wrapped inside the hands of a monster.It's been twelve years, but I've finally found her. Now it's time for her to bask in the darkness she's created inside of me.

My family is everything to me.When my life was ripped away from me, I found them.Silas, Gabriel, and Baron-my hearts, my family, my home.Together, we're a dangerous family of assassins, but I've never been happier.Until a member of our family goes missing.He went out for a simple job and never came back.Now it's up to Baron, Silas, and I to bring him home-but what if he doesn't want to be found?What if the family he's found is better than the one we have here?And what if I find myself caught up in their web of lies while becoming strangely drawn to someone I shouldn't be?All I know is that I can't live without my family, and I'll do anything to keep them safe.Even if that means facing the truth.We're nothing if we're not together-all of us.
