All The Stars

Gail Taylors was born in the midst of an ice age.  Almost the entire world is blanketed with ice, the only warm places left on earth being along the equator.  Gail has never felt sunshine, has never seen a tree, and has never been able to go outside without putting a coat on.  So, desperate, Gail puts her name on The List, a slip of paper sent out by the royal family to escape her small, frozen-over town.  Signing The List ensures that Gail will get out of the cold, but she has signed her soul to the royal family; she has no control left of what happens to her, good or bad.  With The List, there are no take-backs.
