I wanted to tell her there was still a bright side to her situation. Conveniently, it involved me from the very beginning.
In an America where abortion is outlawed, and miscarriage means execution, Edward is fortunate to be a man. He is conventionally attractive, well-educated, and, most importantly, born into generations of wealth.
Unfortunately, he's in love with the wrong woman.
One night, his sister-in-law, Alicia, the woman he has secretly obsessed over since his teenage years, arrives at his doorstep unannounced. After losing her unborn child, her husband has abandoned her, leaving her to face the death penalty alone.
Determined to become her savior, Edward insists that she move in with him and secretly devises a plan to help her escape the country.
Through their eyes, the novel imagines a future America where restaurants mandate minimum tips of seventy-five percent, children wear bulletproof vests to school, segregation resurfaces under new labels, student loan interest rates soar above two hundred percent, and takeout orders no longer include sauces.
In a morally decaying world, REQUITED tells a story of love corrupted by power and obsession disguised as virtue.
