About this series
Arthur and Martin have settled into a quiet life, orbiting each other both on the job and off. Still in recovery from his last devastating mission, Martin is adjusting to his new reality as a permanent desk jockey at the Agency while Arthur is adjusting to his deep feelings for Martin. He's not even sure what to put on the Agency's dreaded form B-837, the "relationship form". Are they dating? "Involved"? In a committed "something"?
The winter holidays interrupt their routines with the annual threat of annual obligatory trips for both of them. At first, old habits rise up to conspire to keep them separated until after the new year, but Martin derails both their plans when he asks Arthur to join him for a week in New York City. He's still haunted by the ghosts of his childhood, but is he ready to face a new future with Arthur? He knows there is only one way to find out, despite his understated anxiety.
Arthur arrives in New York City ready to play tourist, but instead finds himself unexpectedly and deeply entwined in the mysteries of Martin's past. Through a risky confrontation with the underground art world to a secret, heavily guarded storage unit, to sharing the quiet joy of impromptu cooking lessons, Martin and Arthur get to know each other on a deeper level than they ever have before. Together they confront the hardest and scariest mission they've ever faced: learning what it means, and how it feels, to fall in love.
In this sequel to the acclaimed His Quiet Agent, Ada Maria Soto once again brings to life the complex and deeply moving stories of Martin and Arthur as they face new challenges as well as ghosts from their pasts.
Heat level: zero.

He fell in love with the one girl he couldn’t have Ethan Fraser is going places. He has his career mapped out in front of him and the fact he gets to work with his best friend, Violet Archer, every day is the icing on the cake. Just one problem - he might be totally, utterly, madly in love with her. Did he say “might be”? Screw that. He is. He also happens to be dating Zoe - the best-looking, most popular girl in the office. He’s tried to make it work, but he knows he’s a rubbish boyfriend. Did he say “rubbish?” Screw that. He’s abysmal, catastrophic, hopeless . . . Will Ethan ever pluck up the courage to tell Violet how he really feels about her? And, the question he is most scared to ask, could Violet ever see him in that way? This short story friends to lovers novelette is a prequel to “Just Friends”, the first in The Agency series of novels by Elizabeth Grey.
- His Quiet Agent: The Agency, #1
1
Arthur Drams works for a secret government security agency, but all he really does is spend his days in a cubical writing reports no one reads. After getting another "lateral promotion" by a supervisor who barely remembers his name, it's suggested that Arthur try to 'make friends' and 'get noticed' in order to move up the ladder. It's like high school all over again: his attempts to be friendly come across as awkward and creepy, and no one wants to sit at the same table with him at lunch. In a last-ditch attempt to be seen as friendly and outgoing, he decides to make friends with The Alien, aka Agent Martin Grove, known for his strange eating habits, unusual reading choices, and the fact that no one has spoken to him in three years. Starting with a short, surprisingly interesting conversation on sociology books, Arthur slowly begins to chip away at The Alien's walls using home-cooked meals to lure the secretive agent out of his abrasive shell. Except Martin just might be something closer to an actual secret agent than paper-pusher Arthur is, and it might be more than hearts at risk when something more than friendship begins to develop. Please note this book has a Heat Rating of zero.
- Secret Summer: The Agency, #1.5
1
THIS IS A SHORT STORY SET IN THE AGENCY UNIVERSE The Agency series is set in the exciting (and sometimes glamourous) world of advertising. Following the intertwined lives of a group of kickass career women, the series is a heartwarming mix of angsty romance and laugh-out-loud humour. She wished summer would never end. Violet Archer can't believe her luck. Her gorgeous new boyfriend is whisking her off on a romantic sun-drenched getaway! Well, not quite. There'll definitely be sun. But there'll also be a advertising shoot, a film crew, their eccentric best friend, Max, and one of the senior partners of their new ad agency. Oh, and of course, the teeny tiny issue that Violet's boyfriend is her best friend and soon-to-be boss, Ethan Fraser, and if anyone finds out they're together, he'll be fired. In the Santorini sunshine, can Ethan and Violet pull off a successful shoot, keep their secret hidden, and still find time for a little bit of summer sizzle? FRIENDLY NOTE: All of Elizabeth's books feature realistic characters who do things real people do (like have sex) and say things real people say (like drop f-bombs).

Everything's going to be wonderful. Isn't it? Will Violet get the quiet, cosy and totally loved-up Christmas of her dreams? Between one extremely irate CEO, two warring best friends, and a temporarily homeless and implausibly half-dressed German, Violet's vision of festive bliss seems to be melting away faster than Frosty the Snowman on a sunbed…
