ANYA NIKOLAEVA is going to college, something she never thought she'd do.

For once Anya gets to feel like a normal teenagers as she navigates college life and romance. She's truly happy.
Until her sister returns.

What Anya doesn't account for is the mess that this mission will make of her relationship with Kate. Her girlfriend may become her enemy and Anya will have to make a decision between the love that she's had for her sister who she's known most her life or the love for the girl that she dreams about marrying someday.

Yelena Belova scares Kate, but what's even scarier is the bond between the two sisters. When Clint Barton comes to New York and Kate joins him on his journey to clear his name, things between her and Anya get weird and she works to uncover why, leading to her discovering Anya's secret mission and puts their relationship on the rocks.
