Generations ago, the human species was driven to the brink of extinction. Those who remained were forced to flee to the city of Axiom, a utopian paradise where all your decisions are made for you. The house you live in, your occupation, and even your marriage are all regulated by the Assembly, leaving the pressures of free will far behind you.As Annabella Bower enters her last year of schooling, and the final step to adulthood, she is blissfully unaware of thehorrors her perfect city hides, but all that is about to change. A spark between "Ella" and her new dorm-mate Carly turns her world upside down, and opens her eyes the harsh reality around them. Suddenly, she can see students are dying, there's a rebal group uprising outsidethe school walls, and if anyone discovers her relationship with Carly, the consequences are dire. With graduation quickly approaching, Ella will have to make the hardest decision of her life- either continue to follow the laws of Axiom, or give up everything for love.
