Synopsis

[Wattpad Editors' Choice] In a dystopian future, Beth is to marry a man she has just met. And Leo seeks revenge for his wife's murder. They start off as enemies.

----

Decades after humanity's downfall, the last remnants of civilization hide in gated communities. Gangs and fights rule the rest of the desiccated lands.

Beth grew up behind the walls' safety and amid books by Jane Austen and the Brontë sisters. Now, it's time for her to marry, and her grandfather has decided on her future husband. The man lives in a community far away from hers. As she travels with him through the wild lands between their villages, their van gets ambushed by Leo's gang.



A science fiction novel, somewhere between Mad Max, Pride and Prejudice, and Romeo and Juliet.
