Expiration Date: A Dystopian Sci-Fi Thriller (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798347045822)

Iris is used to knowing when she'll die, but she has no idea how to live--until the clock stops ticking--in the first book of a pulse-pounding sci-fi series.

The Society knows when its citizens are going to die and imprints the date on their arms at birth. Iris Levine was raised to fight back against them--until they burned down her home and executed her family, leaving her with nothing but a rapidly approaching Expiration Date. On what was meant to be her final day, she encounters none other than Erik Blackwood, the Society's prodigal son, who's desperate to change his family's cruel ways.

Erik volunteers to be with Iris when the clock strikes midnight--but she doesn't die. She's Expired. The revelation presents exactly the act of defiance he's been searching for, but it will make them both targets. Meanwhile, just weeks into his rule as Preeminence, Erik's cousin Jonas is unraveling under the weight of his own secrets. With Erik's apparent defection and his younger brother, Colton, testing him at every turn, Jonas begins to worry his influence might be slipping away . . . especially when Erik returns with Iris at his side.

Suddenly, Iris is thrust into a ruthless world of politics and family dynamics wrapped in a glittering facade of stars. Jonas offers her salvation at the cost of her soul, Colton is certain she's a threat, and Erik has an agenda all his own. Now, she must decide who to trust and if revenge is worth risking the second chance fate has given her. Even as she feels her heart being stolen by the enemy, for the first time her destiny is in her hands, and she's not giving that up without a fight.
