Minerva Anderson and Bennett Shaw have been inseparable since birth, getting themselves in and out of trouble around the once-great city of New York, now known as the New Order. At a young age, the two watched as the city become overflowed with refugees escaping from a civil war beyond, leading to two new doctrines that would reform the New Order - walls surrounding the perimeter and an unlucky lottery. Although the walls captivated the two when they were younger, it would take them almost fifteen years to understand the lottery, a test to erase the memory of the people you love to help combat the city's overpopulation. The two know what happens to those who forget, but never about those who remember.

The Generation gApp by shannonbruess

If you die here, your brain dies back home. And with her best friend's lifeless body in her arms, Vada Cummings must decide if saving his life is worth sacrificing her own. A week ago, choosing between a flea market or the most gag-inspiring event of the year was considered a life-altering decision for Vada. Her life is comfortably-fine. Anti-climatic. Suburbanly-monotonous. That is until her best friend, Noah, discovers The Generation gApp-a virtual "time machine" app that filters your phone to depict life in any year of the past. Autocorrected language, adjusted photos, customized music libraries-the app basically catapults you back in time. Except it actually does. It catapults Vada, Noah, and apparently everyone they know back to 1995. But since when does time travel cause the wrong words to fall out of your mouth? Why does everything suddenly resemble every 90s sitcom in existence? And why the actual hell is everyone so-empty? Countless oddities, with harrowing consequences, continue to surface until Vada finally discovers the truth about their situation. Nothing is what it seems and she has fallen target of a disturbing ploy fueled by a delusional obsession.

It was gentle and soft, something I never expected from a guy like him. He moved his right hand from my cheek to my waist, tugging me against him, and molded our bodies together. A wave of electricity went down to my core when he licked my lips. "Open your mouth, Bella." His commanding husky voice against my lips jolted my heart, and I followed his order like a slave. With no control, a moan erupted from my throat as his tongue met mine. It was barely audible, but I knew he heard it when he smiled against my lips. He swept my hair from my face to my back and gathered them in his fist. He tugged my head back, deepening the kiss, and my heart thrashed in my chest. At that moment, I didn't need drugs to know what being high felt like because his lips were enough to send me on nine clouds. Just once and I was addicted to it. If this is how being kissed feels like, then fuck, I've wasted a lot of time. ~^~^~^~ FEATURED ON: @Romance (Romantic Suspense) HIGHEST RANKINGS: #1 Goodgirl, Darkpast #2 Badboy #5 Newadult

Kadota (Love Trilogy) by Lisa_Evette

In the quiet desert village of Dey, living among the sand dunes and mirages, existed an anomaly - me. I was different, born without the ability to read, write or keep long memories. My scientist father hailed my uniqueness as a miracle, but my life was far from ordinary. To the village, I was just an oddity, a walking puzzle with missing pieces. My only solace was my best friend, always standing by me, his unspoken love for me etched in his affectionate gaze. We lived under a cruel regime with a population no more than a hundred. Every year, one of us would be chosen on the Counting Day, a ceremonious banishing ritual, to become yet another outcast to the floating prison island far off in the ocean - our village's dreaded version of population control. Our past criminals, defiant to government, and more terrifyingly, our loved ones gone missing, were thought to inhabit that island, their fate, a terrifying enigma. This year, as the Counting Day approached unrelentingly, and my loved one's life rested on borrowed time, I made a decision. I volunteered to be casted out. It was my turn to face the unknown with a hidden purpose - to locate my lost father who was sent there years ago.

L.O.V.E. by denissebloom04

100 years ago, amidst WW3's nuclear bombing, a deadly virus was released in the atmosphere and nearly wiping out the humanity. It lives inside the human brain thriving on the empathy receptors, leading to irrational behaviour and ultimately brain death. To slow the damage, scientists created L.O.V.E, short for Living Off Vital Emotions, a nanovaccine that numbs the virus and switches off all strong emotions. As a last resort and with a dying planet, the Supreme Government created the City, a place to contain the infected survivors suitable for the experiment. Those in the first stages of illness became ideal candidates to receive the neuroinhibitor. Having their feelings restrained and their memory altered, those who come of age are designated a life partner through a Selection process, thus preserving the humankind. A few decades after the trial had started, scientists had a major breakthrough. The nanites, which are highly chemically reactive organisms, are changing their bio-engineered purpose when dopamine levels are high. With a new generation of nanoids, stronger and smarter to fight the battle, the virus doesn't have a chance. Many attempts were made to create a man-made version of synthetic dopamine and each time the outcome was a disaster. Their goal is to create new generations, immune to the virus. These are called Purebloods, the offsprings of those who find pure love, the only cure to save them from a violent death. Running out of time, the Experiment entered in its final stages. To minimize the threats, the Colonies have sent their best soldiers to oversee the trial and protect its key subjects. If only things were going according to plan, or better...stay hidden. With Iron Guard, the resistance outside the walls, hunting the Purebloods too, will the trial save human race before it's too late? #3 in #dystopianfuture (27.06.2020)
