Elijah Gates believes that the United States is simply a horrible, sin filled country. Humans are naturally vulnerable to corruption by the devil, and these citizens are no different. In 1960, Elijah Gates decided to the unthinkable. Recruiting a populous of fifty, Elijah migrates them and his own family to an uncharted, wooded territory in Southern California. There, the Gates Community is born. Lead by Elijah himself, it is a society that is unknown to the rest of the country. In simple words, it is a tight-knit religious community that everyone is happy to live in. Or is everyone? What happens to the people that rebel from the community? There is one rule that stands above the rest: "No one enters, no one leaves.". For sixteen year old Vivien, it wasn't the easiest to follow. She knew of the outside world, and her soul yearned to be free. It was a burning desire in her heart, and she would do anything to explore it. Then one fateful, rebellious night, everything changes.

Sentilia

Maxine is an 18-year-old girl who is bored and lonely, living in California in the year 2351. She's always been fascinated with how humans used to live in houses, drive cars, and the fact that there used to be forests and parks everywhere. Now, after a war that nearly erased humanity, people are forced to live a strict, dull, communist lifestyle. Everyone seems okay with this way of life. Everyone except Maxine. Maxine had always been special; she was often able to predict events. How? She didn't exactly know...yet. When she starts having dreams about a tropical island where people live as they did in the 21st century, she meets the man of her dreams: literally. Her new boiling emotions bring her to wonder...what if it's a real place? When she starts her search for the island and bumps into Elis-the man in her dreams-she suddenly knows it wasn't all just a making of her imagination. Finding that island could mean finding the answers to her burning questions, and maybe even answers to questions she didn't know she had. However, not everything is what she thought it would be when she finally finds the island, and her dreams become a harsh reality. Elis turns out to be someone else, and when another man swoops in every time Maxine is in danger, she becomes confused about what love really is. The Advisors, the ten women governing the world, want to assimilate the people of the island, not knowing that those people have an extreme advantage over them. Maxine also learns that her family has been lying to her about who she really is. Ultimately, when the Advisors come to destroy the island, she must face the fact that she is the key to the island's salvation, and embracing her rapidly developing abilities is the only way to do so.
