Just maybe one Coal sees the real Eden and will save her - she has begun to secretly date her handsome co-worker Jamal. But no matter how much Eden darkens her skin and hair, she's still a Pearl, still ugly - cursed with a tragically low mate-rate of 15%. If only a dark-skinned Coal from the ruling class will pick up her mate option, she'll be safe. The clock is ticking: if Eden doesn't mate before her eighteenth birthday, she'll be left outside to die. In a post-apocalyptic world where resistance to an overheated environment defines class and beauty, Eden Newman's white skin brands her as a member of the lowest class a weak and ugly Pearl. Would you betray your loves ones - and maybe your entire race - to avoid a horrible death? Genre: Young Adult - Fantasy/Adventure/Romance
