Summary
via Goodreads...
The
Registry saved the country from collapse. But stability has come at a price. In
this patriotic new America, girls are raised to be brides, sold at auction to
the highest bidder. Boys are raised to be soldiers, trained by the state to
fight to their death.
Nearly
eighteen, beautiful Mia Morrissey excitedly awaits the beginning of her auction
year. But a warning from her married older sister raises dangerous thoughts.
Now, instead of going up on the block, Mia is going to escape to Mexico—and the
promise of freedom.
All
Mia wants is to control her own destiny—a brave and daring choice that will
transform her into an enemy of the state, pursued by powerful government
agents, ruthless bounty hunters, and a cunning man determined to own her . . .
a man who will stop at nothing to get her back.
WHY
I CAN'T WAIT...
….This
just sounds really good…plain and simple. All this action you can’t help but be
taken in.
So
what are you all waiting on? Please share.
