In Manaaki, everyone is equal.
There is no war, no poverty, no greed-
and no choice.
To those inside its gleaming walls, the city is paradise. To those outside, it is a curse.
Pandorea and Rolph are ripped from the only lives they've known and forced to perform as Entertainers or die at the hands of the Producers. Bound by duty and driven by survival, they find themselves walking a fragile line between obedience and rebellion. But as their staged partnership deepens into something real, they must decide if love is worth the risk when every choice comes at a price.
