Two factions. Two lovers. One choice.When Ceri boarded the colony ship with her parents, they were escaping a planet which could no longer support life. They'd lie in stasis and sleep for a thousand years, unaware that time was passing, until they arrived at their new home, far from the ravages of a toxic world.But for Ceri, it was not to be.The adults of the Stratford stole her childhood and replaced it with terror. For seven years, they forced her and her squad to fight against a rival faction. They were called the enemy, but just like her, they were only children, trying to survive the horrors forced upon them.Everything changed the day Efa, her squad mate and friend, confessed a secret love. Ceri was furious. Why had her friend, as close to her as a sister, kept this from her? The adults would execute Efa for treason if they found out. Efa begged Ceri to save her and her lover from certain death. But to give in would mean the same for Ceri. Yet, if she didn't protect her friend, she would lose her forever.
