As a result of the third and final World War, the United States is one of the only countries left on Earth. Society has developed ideas of what people must look like, and have become obsessed with the idea of filling this mold. The government passed a law stating that all citizens have a right to a "joyous and perfect life", and requiring all citizens to be genetically altered before birth so that they can fit into the idea of Perfection that Society has made. Technology has evolved so much that we can now accurately predict what a child will look like at any time in their lives, and even alter it. But how do we decide to use this technology? To make sure that everyone looks and thinks the way Society wants them to, to "Perfect" them. Nearly every aspect of life is now a popularity contest, and when children turn age eighteen, society gets to decide what the child's Social Status will be, where they will live, how much they will pay for Bills, and even who they will Marry. Originality is lost in this Dystopian tale of what could happen if Society stays the way it is today.

Fate and time has a different plan. Martha is drawn into a battle between The 19 and The Wild Roses. Two different factions each wanting to use and twist Martha for their own ambitions. Will Martha be able to bloom and change the world for the better or will she crushed? ....This story is a work in progress, it has themes and ideas that may change over time as the story develops and as I learn what you like and dislike about the novel.
