    Melina and her twin brother Max have had anything but an easy life, from dealing with their drug addicted mother and her abusive boyfriend, to trying to manage work and school. 
        
         Melina and Max are both 16 years old, and they were left to basically fend for themselves, they had to find a way to pay rent and find a way to put food on the table. They started training at a young age, and now they are two of the deadliest assassins in the under world. 
        
         But one night the police show up at their door saying that both of their parents had been killed in a car accident and now they were being sent off to live with their eight older brothers. 
        
        Will they be able to keep their secrets hidden?

        Hey guys, I hope you give my story a chance. This is my first story, I'm not really a writer but I wanted to give it a shot. I also really suck at the little description things so please don't let it scare you off.
        
         I hope you guys enjoy my story!
        
         THIS IS A TRILOGY- You can just read this book by itself, it doesn't leave off on a cliffhanger or anything. But I also wanted to let you know there are more parts to it in case you're interested.
