Season 5 Recap



Alexa and Kasper learned of a member of WET’s Board of Directors, Jennifer Barnes. They broke into her home and held her at gunpoint until she gave up the members who put the target on the Starks, but Alexa got more than she bargained for: an entire black box of information.

Chapter 05: A Cornered Snake


Alexa swiftly ducked behind a large plant sitting in the corner of the hall. “MELISSA!” Gavin cried in shock as he looked down at the unconscious body of his baby sister. Lifting her from the floor, he hurried her inside his apartment and shut the door.

Alexa let out a sigh of relief. As she turned for the stairs, she could hear two voices inside; one distinctly feminine. Alexa waited a moment longer before quietly exiting to the alley and Kasper’s awaiting car. “You get her squared away?” he asked with a hint of disdain.

“Yeah, all good. Let’s go.”

Chapter 04: Toxic Dealings


Executives for the Weapons, Enforcement and Transportation Division are in a scramble to save their clients and keep themselves out of prison as word of a scandal hit the news.

That’s right, Brenda, emails detailing the agency’s involvement in over a dozen assassinations were released to the public by unknown hackers.

Alexa turned up the volume as Channel 7 News Anchors Brenda Cosgrove and Lance Winters detailed the last 48 hours of Kasper’s activities. WET’s logo appeared on the screen above the anchor’s head as they continued reporting suspicious emails and accounts he brought to light. Thanks to Jennifer, they were able to sift through the larger portion of her blackmail box and find the records that would harm the company the most.

Season 3 Recap



The kill squad has arrived and Alexa must work quickly to ensure the Starks make it out alive.



Believing Alexa is the reason behind their unexpected visitors, Joan confronts Gavin who kindly explains she has it all wrong about the woman he loves.



For the first time, Gavin comes face-to-face with what Alexa really is and finds it a little hard to believe. Although nothing is said outright, he begins to suspect Alexa may be a government plant sent to protect his family.



Capturing one of the thugs alive, Alexa questions him to learn the name behind the hit: WET, an organization she has never heard of and one she must investigate.



Kasper once again finds himself in trouble, taken by armed thugs. Now Alexa must go after him, leaving a worried Gavin to fend for himself.



The police question the Starks about the shootout at their home but they are unable to point them in any helpful direction. Meanwhile, Gavin confronts his Dad about his affairs believing this to be the cause behind the attack.



During Alexa and Kaspers daring escape, they are accidentally caught on video by a passerby at the very moment Alexa executes one of their pursuers.



A breaking news report gets Gavin’s attention when he finds that Alexa’s car was one of the vehicles spotted in a high-speed chase with police downtown. And goes on a mission to find her and bring her home. Later, Gavin learns that Alexa’s car had been torched and he is unable to reach her by phone.


Alexa and Kasper feel as though they are one step behind. And when their likenesses show up on a news report and wanted posters around town, they realize desperate measures are in order.


With their plan all set, Alexa breaks into the police station to destroy any evidence they may have gathered thus far from both the crime scene as well as the footage taken by a civilian eyewitness.



But this does little to dissuade their pursuers and they find themselves on the run and looking for a place to lay low. Alexa, having thought ahead, has a cabin in the woods. She and Kasper only have to make it there first.



The matter of running for their lives and the fear of dying at any moment sends Kasper into Alexa’s arms only this time, she doesn’t turn him away. The two become closer than they’ve ever been when Alexa takes Kasper’s virginity.


Once things calm down a little for them, Alexa and Kasper begin their hunt for the client and the men after them. Their first lead: WET, the company name given to them during Alexa’s encounter with a hitman at the Stark mansion.



Alexa takes a trip inside the belly of the beast to aid Kasper’s attempt to gain Intel. While inside, she has a sit down meeting with two of the company’s commanding officers but neither are certain they had anything to do with the hit.



Outside, Alexa finds herself in a dangerous situation as she’s once again made to run but, this time, they turn to the welcoming arms of an old friend.



And while they wait on help from another of Alexa’s old contacts, she and Mary recall the last night Alexa called St. Peter’s Catholic Church home.



With Detective Monroe’s help, Alexa fakes her death in order to give Gavin a little closure as well as lose the heat she and Kasper created in St. Claire.



However, Gavin’s not fooled by the body double and turns to his friend in the department for help. Now with strong suspicion his fiancée is alive, Gavin has made it his mission to find her and bring her home.

And now, on to Season 4---->

Chapter 03: Point Blank


“Keep moving!” Alexa shouted over her shoulder at the slowing Kasper. “My car’s just ahead.” She dove behind the wheel of her Audi and unlocked the door for him.

Out of breath and limping, he finally slid into the seat beside her and Alexa peeled away from the curb. “Don’t look now, A, but we’ve got company,” he sighed, noticing his SUV and a black Escalade merge behind them in the rearview. They fired at them and Alexa shouted for Kasper to get down as she rolled down her window to return fire, striking the front bumper of the lead vehicle.

Chapter 02: To Catch a Predator


“Hannah!” Gavin yelled, chasing after her as she quickly rushed towards her Audi. She grabbed a small, black duffel bag from beneath the spare tire in her trunk and tossed it onto the passenger seat. “Hannah, will you stop, please?”

“Gavin, get your family to a hotel and call the police.”

“And what are you going to do?”

“I have to find my friend.”

“Alright, then I’m coming with you.”

“No, you’re not. It’s too dangerous.”

“And how is it any safer for you?”

“It isn’t. But unlike you, I’ve had extensive training in combat, can you say the same?” she asked and waited for his response. “Like I said, get your family to a hotel. I’ll call you when I’m done.”

“Wait a second, that’s it? You’ll call when you’re done?”

Chapter 01: First Sign of Danger


“Is everyone alright?” Alexa asked, walking around each Stark and examining them for injuries.

“We’re fine, Hannah!” Travis nearly shouted as he and his family gathered in the kitchen. “Now would you please tell us what is going on? Who was just shooting at us?”

“Travis, there’s something you need to know,” she paused and listened intently.

“Continue,” Travis urged, frustrated and tired as he worried about his family’s safety. The lights cut out and both Melissa and Dylan cried.

“Shh, it’ll be ok,” Alexa said, doing her best to calm them.

“Don’t say that! You don’t know that for sure,” Melissa whined in response.

“Quiet!” Everyone stilled and Alexa glanced at the double glass doors near the back patio. “Someone’s coming.”

Season 2 Recap

Chapter 07: Every Picture Tells a Story


“What are you some sort of ninja assassin?” Melissa asked, coming up behind Alexa as she practiced Tai Chi on the patio. She had been watching for a while, impressed by the fluid motion in her form.

Alexa smiled and used her towel to dab at the sweat on her forehead. “I just like to stay active is all. I could teach you a few moves if you’d like.”

“Nah,” Melissa replied, shaking her head. Dropping onto the top step, she continued watching, sighing every now and again. “Can I ask you something?”

Chapter 05: Nightmares


—Brooklyn Heights – 1999—Age 9

“Daddy, I’m scared.”

“Shh! I know, Lyric, but you have to be very quiet, baby, can you do that?”

“I’ll try,” she shook her head and squeezed her legs tighter against her chest.

“That’s my big girl. I have to go and get your brothers. Now you stay down, and no matter what you hear, you don’t leave this closet. Understand?”

“I understand.” Sinking down to the floor, Lyric closed her eyes and tried her best to find a happy place; her 7th birthday party on the sandy shores of Turtle Creek. Running on the beach with her brother Echo and building sandcastles with Blaze.

Chapter 03: Vital Signs


Billowing black smoke curled into the sky as the 60-foot vessel burned. Flames licked up the sides of the ship, growing taller and darker as more fuel fed the blaze. The explosion had rocked the pier, sending Alexa careening backwards and landing hard on the wooden dock. Gavin was nowhere in sight.

“GAVIN!” Alexa yelled, pulling herself from the ground as she frantically looked around the water and shore for him. “GAVIN!”

“No!” she heard Joan gasp behind her as she and her husband rushed toward the end of the pier. “Gavin? Gavin!” The sounds of sirens could be heard in the distance as the panicked family continued searching the wreckage for their missing loved one.

Chapter 06: Anonymous


“Morning, neighbor,” Alexa sang as she exited her apartment door. “Sleep well?”

“Like a baby,” he answered back, stepping away from his front door and tossing a smile at her. Slowly he strolled over, trying to keep his eyes on hers but failing as he noticed her dress hugged every individual curve of her body. “So don’t forget, you and I have a lunch date today and dinner tomorrow night.”

“Dinner? When did I agree to dinner?”

“Just now, you don’t remember?” he fiddled with the mail in his hands, flipping the largest envelope with his fingers as he waited on her to respond.

“Hmm, refresh my memory.”
