The Hating Game meets Mission: Impossible in Stars and Smoke, a smoldering new novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Marie Lu about a superstar tapped to become a secret agent and the reluctant young spy assigned to be his partner.

Meet Winter Young--teen backup dancer turned global pop phenomenon. His superstardom has smashed records, selling out stadiums from LA to London. Now he's bringing his assets to a whole new arena. . .

The Panacea Group, a covert shadow organization, has its sights set on the infamous Eli Morrison. A criminal tycoon behind the world's most nefarious enterprises, Eli has just one weakness - his daughter, Penelope. And Penelope has just one wish for her nineteenth birthday - a private concert with Winter Young.

When Panacea approaches him with the chance to infiltrate Morrison's inner circle, Winter will use his fame, cunning, and charisma to pull it off - only he won't be on his own. Posing as Winter's bodyguard is the fiery Sydney Cossette, Panacea's newest recruit. Sydney may be the only person alive impervious to Winter's charms, but as the mission brings them closer, they find their operation threatened by more than just the chemistry between them.
