Making her feel hotter than any future brother-in-law should.

I don’t know when it happened, but somewhere along the lines I became addicted to the type of story that I’m affectionately referring to as “girls in pretty dresses in a slightly dystopic era” genre (I should really come up with a better catchphrase).

When Rhine is kidnapped and sold as a bride, she vows to do all she can to escape. A botched effort to create a perfect race has left all males with a lifespan of 25 years, and females with a lifespan of 20 years. She can thank modern science for this genetic time bomb.
