Description
What would you do if you were offered a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?
A clandestine and mysterious company offers you a deal. One that would allow you to escape a harsh life and trade it in for a utopian world.
Sounds great, right? Well, it is.
But it comes at a significant cost.
What would you be willing to give up to achieve everything you've ever dreamed of? Your car? Your house?
How about your soul? Or the life of someone close to you? What if you had to sacrifice both?
Inside Borrowed Destiny, follow the Traveler, who (after much persuasion from his sick mother) decides to take this deal and turn his life from rags to riches.
Little does he know that life on the other side isn't always what it seems, and the grass certainly isn't always greener.
Explore the ethical implications of sacrificing a loved one for personal gain, and the Traveler's struggle with assuming a new identity.
Explore these impossible dilemmas and discover the secrets of Utopia in this must-read thriller, out now!

I love this book! I love a good utopian society and what-if narrative. It was so interesting and I really loved all the twists and turns. All of the ethical slippery slopes made me think and question a lot. I thoroughly enjoyed this story!
