Goodreads Synopsis:

 

Master spy Twilight is unparalleled when it comes to going undercover on dangerous missions for the betterment of the world. But when he receives the ultimate assignment—to get married and have a kid—he may finally be in over his head!

Twilight must infiltrate the prestigious Eden Academy to get close to his target Donovan Desmond, but has he ruined his daughter Anya’s chances with his outburst during the admissions interview? Perhaps the truly impossible mission this time is making sure Anya both becomes an exemplary student and befriends Donovan’s arrogant son Damian!

 

Review:

 

Now that the family is all together, the first mission was to get Anya into the private school. After that interview, it surprisingly doesn't go too bad. While the task technically has a different step next, Twilight thinks that Anya could make friends with the main targets son in her class instead. But they're kids, so that doesn't quite go as planned.

Throughout all of this, of course, the three are still getting to know each other and growing closer. They're forming a familial bond, even though they've only been doing it a very short time, and with so little preparation. And then Yor's overprotective brother shows up.

This series is a lot of fun. I really like the characters, and I'm enjoying seeing them grow closer with each other. This development with Anya and her new classmates is also a lot of fun, since it's something she hasn't quite done like this before.

This is definitely a series to keep following.
