She dreamed of adventure. Now she’s detained by the authorities. Her crime? She’s pregnant.
Rylee Williams is looking forward to a fun-filled gap year before she heads East for college. An extended trip to Europe. Volunteering for her congregation’s Home Mission. Maybe even mentoring for her old high school’s robotics team.
Pregnancy was the last thing that she expected. Detained under the Unborn Child Protection Act and forced into the Wisconsin Individual Family Education program with her on-again, off-again boyfriend, Rylee struggles to navigate in a world that has reduced her to a walking womb.
Can this strong-willed mother-to-be reclaim her life . . . and her future?

This was really great! A very worrying, possible representation of a completely government controlled dystopian world! Where women have not choice! But neither do men! A well written, interesting story with quite high levels of angst, which is certainly understandable considering the circumstances of the characters. A fast paced gripping tale! I will definitely look for more by this writer!
Set in 2028 you get to learn Rylee's story on how she's going through the new modern day struggles of a pregnant woman. Could you imagine being arrested for being pregnant? Rylee couldn't, but did and it's extremely insightful to what may very well happen if the world keeps going the way it is. M.E. Wright has done her research and given us a story that can be well connected with and very compelling. She shows that as women we can be resilient, strong, and even powerful. It's a must read!
I read the Fatherhood Mandate, you’ve got to read the Motherhood Mandate to see everything from the other perspective. Not everything is what it may appear. I really enjoyed reading this side of the story after the fact.
