TW: Rape, attempted rape, sexual assault, sexual harassment 

DNF'd. I understand this is inspired by the Allied soldiers who raped women - and possibly girls - loyal or possibly residing in countries who made up the Axis Power, and men in power will do whatever it takes to condone sexual violence towards females with certain women siding with them, but its still not clear how the politicians came to make this a lawful thing 🤔 I'm glad Mya Roberts doesn't glorify this like how Wattpad and Archive of Our Own authors do ("Its 'dArK fIcTiOn' ") but I've read this far without really understanding how this crime became legalized, so I won't continue.

ROMANCE SET IN A DYSTOPIAN FUTURE In post-apocalyptic North America, sexual slavery is legal. Lila Velez desperately wants to lose her virginity before the troops visit her town and take it away by force. She makes plans to seduce her only friend. Lila does not love him, but he is the only man who has shown her true affection, an affection she is willing to take as a substitute for love. Lila's coping mechanism to cope with her mother's loss is her secret. A secret that will bring her closer to Aleksey Fürst, a foreign, broody man who she distrusts because of his links to the troops and his rough, yet irresistible appearance. He offers Lila an alternative to her plans, a possibility that terrifies her...and tempts her in spite of herself. With threats looming at every turn and no way to escape, Lila fears that falling in love will only lead to more heartache. The consequences of laying down her arms for Aleksey and welcoming hope might destroy more than her heart. They might force her to face the worst of her nightmares becoming a reality. Is love possible in a world that has forgotten what the human touch is? NOTES FROM THE AUTHOR * This is a book full of romance and anti-rape messages. I didn't write this book to romanticize violence against women but to tell the story of a girl who has to come of age under the most terrible circumstances. * This full-length novel is a stand alone. No cliffhanger * Alpha male hero. No cheating. No slut-shaming. * Includes a discussion guide for bookclubs * Possible triggers for abuse survivors. * Due to violent scenes and romantic sexual content, this book is not intended for readers under the age of 18.
