ASPARTAME

Love was never meant to be controlled, and the chemistry between them was the glitch in the system.

In a society where relationships require government permits, where the State monitors reproduction and treats emotion as sedition, Alison Morris and Philip Young aren't just breaking rules. They're committing the only crime that matters.

Their forbidden connection begins with furtive notes passed in class but quickly evolves into the one thing the algorithm was specifically coded to prevent: something real.

Alison and Philip must choose between the hollow existence designed for them and a passion that could become the first crack in the foundation of everything they've ever known.
