Once a year, out of our gracious and charitable spirit, we invite twenty-four young men and women to our city for a chance to make history. And what an opportunity it is! Picture it. To have been born with nothing, but then, through perseverance and tenacity rising up and achieving eternal glory! Now that's somebody worth rooting for! [Capitol citizens' POV of the Games]

When she's reaped for the annual Hunger Games, Embelia Hackett's only goal is to spare her mother the pain of losing her child- but she's unsure how a skinny, malnourished teenager from the poorest district in Panem is supposed to do that.

Their relationship is under a severe strain, and is further complicated when another life is brought into the mix. How will they grow back together?

The hot summer sun kissed Katniss' cheeks, and she felt its warmth spreading throughout her body. The tiniest of smiles danced on her lips. But this wasn't the right time for public displays of euphoria. Not when Tessa Monroe, the 15-year old girl old whose name had been called, was making her way towards the stage in front of them; walking in a straight line towards imminent death
