HTML: Twenty-two-year-old Naya has spent nearly half her life as a sex slave in a government institution called The Line. Excommunicated after getting pregnant with twins, she's left with no way to earn a living and a horrifying choice to make: find someone to replace her at the institution by the time she gives birth, or have her babies taken in her stead. Ric Bennett wants to help. A doctor with a history of aiding ex-Line girls, he runs a team of rebels that can delete Naya's records, prevent her from having to make an impossible choice, and free her forever. But when his plan is sniffed out, things get bloody, fast. The Line wants them back. The organization has discovered information about Naya and her twins that make them more valuable than just sex slaves. It makes them dangerous--and part of The Line's larger plan. As they hide from government search parties, Ric comes to admire Naya's quiet strength. And Naya realizes Ric might be a man she can trust. If they make it off the grid, they could build a new life. But first they'll have to survive the long, vicious reach of The Line. Book one of two 77,000 words .Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

The writing style is light and fun, which helped balance out some of the heavy subject matter. There were interesting plot twists, a touch of romance and one tough heroine. The ending was complete, but there is enough of a cliffhanger to leave me wanting more.
My one and only complaint is that there are portions that are not realistic and sort of out of balance, making it difficult to buy into everything wholeheartedly. Naya was just way too knowledgeable about so many things, including current events, considering that she was locked away for her entire adolescence through young adulthood life. I loved how smart Naya was and it wouldn't have been the same had she not been so clever, I just wish that it was done in a more believable way.
All in all, this is a solid story with a lot to discover and I was not only glad to have read it, but look forward to more in Walled. ( )
