One day of memories is all you have. One false step can endanger the entire city. One mistake can be enough to kill you.

And Carra's made many mistakes.

The city of Gotten has finally found a cure for the virus that wiped out the world. The cure, though, comes at a price: one more day of life in exchange for years of memories. No one has ever refused the cure. Not until Carra.

The virus should have killed Carra, but instead, she's left alone in a world where only she can remember yesterday. She also remembers the Assembly's penalty for not taking the cure-- death. Life on the line, Carra must pretend she never regained her memory, but it's impossible to ignore the danger that surrounds her: a violent secret society, a string of disappearances, and the Assembly's desperate interest in Carra. The events are connected. . .but it will take a powerful supply of memories to learn how.All Rights Reserved

PROTOCOL 7A by thedevilrage9

The world didn't end with fire. It ended with forgetting. In 2132, pain was outlawed. Memories of grief, trauma, and fear were erased at birth, stored inside the Vault, and replaced with manufactured calm. Humanity became safe. Stable. Empty. But Dr. Elara Myles has stopped taking her doses. She remembers her brother Cade-erased, declared unstable, lost to a forbidden "skip." And when she hacks into the Vault, she discovers a secret directory: Protocol 7A, a program that doesn't just delete the past-it loops the future. Now, hunted by the Accord, Elara carries the most dangerous thing in a world built on silence: the truth. A dystopian sci-fi thriller about memory, identity, and the cost of never feeling pain.

Insight by highjoseph

Cassia Veil was designed to be the perfect assassin - born with the power to see people's deepest thoughts, trained by a secret organization known as The Forgotten, and deployed to reshape the broken world one kill at a time. But when a mission goes wrong and a memory she was never meant to have resurfaces, Cassia begins to question everything - her orders, her origins, and even her own identity. Betrayed by the people who built her, Cassia finds herself hunted, not just by enemies... but by her past. As she digs deeper, she uncovers a horrifying truth: she wasn't the first. And worse - a powerful AI named Obsidian, built from her own mother's failed experiments, is rising from the ashes. Now Cassia must choose - fight for freedom in a world that never gave her any, or let go of her humanity to become what she was always meant to be. But freedom has a cost. And she's not the only one who was made to pay it.

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)

There are few survivors of what the remaining have started to call the end of the world. The Apocalypse. Few who are still brave or scared of death enough to face the torture that is living. I am one of those survivors. Book One of the Snow Series Highest ranking: #3 in Sci-Fi Watty's Shortlisted

Touch: Awakening by AmandaKByrne

The first touch burns. The second will change her life. In the future, humans will never see each other face to face. Technology will facilitate all interactions, from emails to spoken conversations to a hike up a tree-lined mountain. They'll rely on machines to provide them with their basic needs and favorite indulgences, and they'll never know another person's touch. This is the world Alexis is born into. A grad student slated to become impregnated in a few months' time, Lexi's been struggling with her wild and reckless thoughts. Why aren't they allowed to question the Government's decisions? What if her friend, Parker, is right, and the pill regimen they're on deadens their sense of touch? And why does her heart stop and her chest squeeze whenever she's around Drew? Drew's a dangerous man. He asks the questions she's afraid to voice and makes her think. Makes her wonder. Makes her yearn. He promises to help her find the answers, the two of them fumbling toward something they don't understand. The first touch is painful, the second one less so. Each one awakens feelings Lexi has no words for, until she craves Drew like an addict needing a fix. As they discover what the Government has kept from them all their lives, they fight to find a way to have it all - even as it threatens to destroy them forever. **** Later chapters contain situations intended for a mature audience. Consider yourself warned :)

Serial Hearts by 0authorunknown0

Jace Reign - an ex-Enforcer with a past full of shadows - has been watching her. Waiting. Protecting her from the inside. Together, they run. From the system. From their pasts. From a secret society that controls everything through a virtual illusion called V1SION. But rebellion isn't just survival. It's falling in love where love is forbidden. And it's choosing to fight when the whole world wants you erased.

The truth she hears could destroy everything. The lie he tells is the only thing that can save them.

Cut by AnnelieWendeberg

Her emotions come with such force that she can't help but carve them into her skin. The night she decides to kill herself, she meets Runner -- a mysterious stranger who makes her question everything she's learned about the end of the world. His message is terrifying: It wasn't some mysterious disease that killed ten billion people. We did this. Humanity sleepwalked into climate disaster and ecocide, just to butcher and rape until blood stained the seas. Micka is sure Runner is lying. Her instincts urge her to stay far away from him. But he makes her an offer she finds hard to resist. There are only two rules she must follow: Kill. Survive. Because the final wars were never meant to end. ________________ Available books in the 1/2986 Series: Book 1: CUT Book 2: FOG Book 3: ICE Book 4: VOW Audio books narrated by Emma Galvin (Divergent Trilogy, Touched, A Shade of Vampire) are available at Audible.
