Description
In the not so distant future, humans are divided into two very distinct groups: the Beloveds and the Masses. The Beloveds are an elite, genetically perfect society of beautiful people living in palaces; the Masses are the low class of disease ridden, uneducated proletariat. The Masses worship the Beloved. And so they should. The Beloved are perfect in every way. The Beloveds stay secluded and cloistered from the Masses behind their palace walls, protected by adoring, dimwitted aliens known as the Guardians. Odelia, the elegantly beautiful princess of the Beloveds, loves her extravagant life, surrounded by her eclectic Royal family and her beautiful things. Odelia spends her days in opulent comfort and security as she prepares to become the perfect future Queen of the Beloved. But things are not as they seem. Odelia's world is turned upside down the night of her Royal birthday ball when she is introduced to a handsome but terribly unrefined man from the far reaches of the kingdom. His wild, but unassuming nature sets everyone on edge, especially Odelia who cannot help but be drawn to this mysterious man and the secrets he holds. When Odelia learns these secrets, her perfect world is thrown into a tailspin of uncertainty and betrayal. Take a journey with Odelia in this unique tale of discovery as she destroys the elaborate mask of falsehood concealing the truth about her people, her planet and, ultimately, herself. Filled with energy, romance and inner-transformation, THE WILDS is a fascinating, thought-provoking examination of human nature and how the choices we make today, create the history of tomorrow.
