''Fearless'' is a young adult novel series by Francine Pascal. The story follows Gaia Moore, a teenager who was born with the inability to feel fear, as her terrorist uncle "Loki" messes up her life.
 
In 2003, the series was loosely adapted into a [[Fearless (TV series)|TV show]] starring [[Rachael Leigh Cook]] in which Gaia is an FBI agent. Only one episode was filmed; it never aired.
 
A short follow-up book series in which Gaia joins the FBI, ''Fearless FBI'', was published in 2005.

=== Provides examples of: ===
* [[Action Girl]]: Gaia
* [[Alpha Bitch]]: Heather. She eventually stops being this and even jumps to Gaia's defense when the FOH start mocking her in the final book.
* [[Amnesiac Dissonance]]: {{spoiler|Oliver/Loki}} following his [[Convenient Coma]].
* [[Back From the Dead]]: {{spoiler|Sam}}, but the implication is that reports of his death were exaggerated and that he was actually held prisoner by Loki's [[Mooks]].
* [[Blessed Withwith Suck]]: Gaia is fond of pointing out that humans feel fear for a ''reason''.
** Also, her supreme fighting skills come with a serious drawback: She can't hold back when fighting, so even a simple brawl causes her to overexert herself, which results in her passing out once the fight is over.
* [[Brainwashed]]: We learn {{spoiler|Tatiana}} was once a nice person, before getting [[Brainwashed]]... then it's [[Aborted Arc|never mentioned again]].
Line 21:
* [[Cloning Blues]]: {{spoiler|Josh}}
* [[Cuckoo Nest]]
* [[Cursed Withwith Awesome]]: Loki's point of view on Gaia's fearlessness. His attempts to recreate it don't go so well though.
* [[Girl Posse]]: Whom Gaia dubs the "Friends of Heather", in reference to the [[Alpha Bitch]]. Said [[Alpha Bitch]] pulls a [[Heel Face Turn]] later on, while the rest of them continue to act like like little harpies.
* [[A God Am I]]: One villain actually calls himself "God". He's quite delusional, and is viewed with nothing but contempt by the other villains.,
** Loki as well, after the Norse god of trickery.
* [[I Just Want to Be Normal]]: Gaia
* [[ItsIt's Not You, ItsIt's My Enemies]]: A major hindrance to all of Gaia's relationships.
* [[Love At First Sight]]
