Amidst tracing the origins of nuclear bombs and a stopping a terrorist attack, feelings may be kindled and rekindled...

Marked at birth with a power no one fully understood until it was too late, she ended up rotting in prison for crimes she never meant to commit. When a second chance arrives in the form of a transfer to a new City, Dianna is startled to realize just how different her new home is from the old. At the new Super Academy, she begins to understand what it means to be a friend. What it means to trust someone. But a cityless mercenary army is on a warpath, and Dianna's new city is caught in the crossfire. Their new Super general is stronger than anyone realizes, and Dianna will need to let her new friends into her heart and face the demons of her past in order to come to terms with her terrible power in time to help save the City she's grown to love.

Identity - Rewritten by julicloaly

In New York City, elite teens are going missing. The police and FBI have run out of leads and out of time, and so there is only one option left: to contract the CDA. It's the government's dirty little secret, an unorthodox organization of highly trained agents who are sent in when everyone else has failed. Four agents are sent to NYC: Mel Carmicheal, a knife-loving force of nature who could seduce a priest if she wanted to; Diego Delarosa, a perceptive and rational agent who can get anyone to trust him; Ian Sharpe, a quiet, insightful hitman who doesn't know exactly why he's there; and Asha Mannan, an organized, analytical agent who never gives up on a case. Changes in the very structure of the CDA during the middle of their assignment, however, have the agents scrambling with a new deadline and the looming threat of a suicide mission. Worst of all, their pasts and their secrets are beginning to catch up with them-- and they're all more connected than they know. Can they save the missing teenagers before their worlds come crashing down? *Told in chapters alternating between the past and the present* *This is the new & improved version of Identity- the old one has since been unpublished. However, this is not the final version and will most likely contain minor grammar mistakes/plot holes/etc.* Copyright © 2017 by Sloane Mackenzie All rights reserved.
