Surviving The System

The Meyer's Institute is the foremost innovative and prestigious Orphanage and Academy. They solicit for having the highest rehoming percentage across the nation and guarantee the children have the best opportunities to be placed into loving homes and with prominent families. But behind the shiny floors and fancy brochures, The Institute and Academy harbors a dark, salacious secret. Ava was left at The Institute as a baby, no one knowing her parents or why she was left her there. Being labeled as an Abandoned didn't really mean anything to her growing up. While most of the children in The Institute and The Academy were Fosters or Boarders, temporary placements and students, a large quantity of the more permanent residents were placed there traditionally through adoption agencies. Then there were the ones that The Institute was the only home and family they'd ever known and they dreamed of the day they would be adopted. But those childish dreams were shattered on Ava's fourteenth birthday, when she was taken from her fairly happy life at The Institute and thrown into what was known as The System with other Abandoned – conscripted to become high class courtesans for the wealthy. Finn Devereux had it all. The only child and heir to his father's legacy, he found the challenge of learning to run his father's empire exhilarating. But the more he learns, the more he begins to suspect his father's business might not be as ethical, or legal, as everyone believes. When he meets the mysterious and elusive Ava, things get even more complicated as he begins to unravel the atrocious secrets shrouding her history and discover just who she really is. Finn finds himself caught between the past and the future, between his father and the girl he can't forget. Will he destroy them both with the truth? Or keep the secrets and past buried, condemning her to life in The System? Ava walks a fine line between the desperate need to escape and the paralyzing fear she’ll disappear as just another Expendable.
