Unruly: A Coming-of-Age Dystopian of Secrets and Sisters
In the rigid world of Ignis, your Pair isn't just your match—it's your duty.
Identical twins Charlotte and Zandra Galvin have spent their lives walking opposite paths. Charlotte, the golden girl and "Highest Pointer" of their regimented society, is guaranteed a prestigious Pairing—genetically matched to ensure humanity's survival. Zandra, free-spirited and restless, faces a far grimmer fate: a forced assignment to a stranger, or worse—a one-way trip to Unruly, the dangerous island where society's outcasts are banished.
But when the pressure of perfection becomes unbearable, Charlotte does the unthinkable—she switches places with Zandra without warning, fleeing to Unruly in a desperate bid for freedom. Now trapped in a world she was raised to fear, Charlotte must navigate brutal trials, shifting alliances, and secrets she's been too afraid to face—even within herself.
Back in Ignis, Zandra is thrust into Charlotte's pristine life, where she must deceive the very architects of the Pairing system, outwit the powerful elite, and survive suitors who will stop at nothing to claim her. As both twins struggle to uphold the lie, the truth inches dangerously close to exposure. And if they're discovered, they won't just lose their futures—they'll be imprisoned on Unruly forever.
Perfect for fans of Uglies, The Hunger Games, and Divergent, Unruly is a gripping young adult dystopian about identity, love, and the price of freedom––because sometimes, the only way to win is by breaking every rule.
PRAISE FOR UNRULY
"Unruly captures the rawness and duality of adolescence—the reckless self-abandonment necessary to survive is constantly at war with the fearlessness necessary to grow." -Michelle Askew, Writer on Netflix's Ginny & Georgia
"A riveting blend of sisterhood and jaw-dropping twists that will leave you breathless. With every turn of the page, Unruly asks: how far would you go to protect your family and image—and at what cost to yourself?" -Peri Segel, Professional TV Writer for Disney, Netflix, and DreamWorks
"Unruly is more than a dystopian drama—it's a deeply compassionate look at anxiety and the cost of holding yourself together when the world expects you to never fall apart." -Jo Macariola, Clinical Psychologist
"Unruly brilliantly captures the terror of perfectionism, and what happens when the pressure to be everything finally breaks you. Thought-provoking, emotional, and impossible to put down." -Ashley Twichell, Olympian and 2x World Champion
