Tosca Lee, New York Times bestselling author
They told her being chosen was all that mattered.
That it would secure her future, her worth.
That not being chosen would yield a cruel fate.
And only she would be to blame.
But what if they lied?

We told her being chosen was all that mattered.
That it would secure her future, her worth.
That not being chosen would yield a cruel fate.
And only she would be to blame.
So how does she know?
About the book:
Like all citizens since the Ruining, Carrington Hale knows the importance of this day. But she never expected the moment she’s spent a lifetime preparing for—her Choosing Ceremony—to end in disaster. Ripped from her family, she’ll spend her days serving as a Lint, the lowest level of society. She knows it’s her duty to follow the true way of the Authority.
As Carrington begins this nightmare, rumors of rebellion rattle her beliefs. Though the whispers contradict everything she’s been told, they resonate deep within.
Then Carrington is offered an unprecedented chance at the life she’s always dreamed of. It’s an opportunity to be chosen at last, but she can’t shake the feeling that it may be an illusion. Does the Authority truly know what’s best for society? And how can it let a killer run free while Lints are dying? Carrington must uncover the truth before it destroys her.
Rachelle explores deeper questions of identity, worth, and belonging through her Facebook page and e-newsletter. Sign up to join her as we struggle daily to remember that He alone defines us—and He loves us as we are.

Not to be chosen would yield a cruel fate of my own making.
