Archetype Hardcover
Introducing a breathtakingly inventive futuristic suspense novel about one woman who rebels against everything she is told to believe.
Emma wakes in a hospital, with no memory of what came before. Her husband, Declan, a powerful, seductive man, provides her with new memories, but her dreams contradict his stories, showing her a past life she can’t believe possible: memories of war, of a camp where girls are trained to be wives, of love for another man. Something inside her tells her not to speak of this, but she does not know why. She only knows she is at war with herself.
Suppressing those dreams during daylight hours, Emma lets Declan mold her into a happily married woman and begins to fall in love with him. But the day Noah stands before her, the line between her reality and dreams shatters.
In a future where women are a rare commodity, Emma fights for freedom but is held captive by the love of two men — one her husband, the other her worst enemy. If only she could remember which is which.
The first novel in a two-part series, Archetype heralds the arrival of a truly memorable character — and the talented author who created her.

My Review:
Emma is a 26 year old woman who wakes up in a hospital bed with no memories. She learns that a hundred years ago a war broke out with women in the west are free to live their life while women who live in the east are very rare. Women are only considered worth marrying if they are fertile and men are desperate to claim and manipulate them.
She allows her husband to mold her into the perfect wife and even falls in love with him. Soon she is dreaming about another man who isn't her husband and when he finally stands in front of her she starts questioning her life.
I really admire Emma's determination to find out the truth about her life before the accident and even though she does give in to some suggestions she also fights for her independence.
I recommend this dark, high octave action book with an unforgettable heroine.
3/5
