Khanavai Warrior Bride Games Series by Margo Bond Collins

There are a million ways to end up in the Alien Bride Lottery. But it takes only one.Every unmarried female human over the age of 21 gets entered once a year. You can also accept extra entries for legal infractions—instead of paying a parking fine, for example, you can request an extra entry. Lots of women do that. I mean, why not? The chances are astronomical that your name will get chosen to be one of the hundred or so women who get shipped off to space every year... moreThere are a million ways to end up in the Alien Bride Lottery.

I refused to be in the Bride Lottery—so now I’m a runaway bride.Somehow, I knew my name was going to be drawn in the Bride Lottery—the hellish agreement that Earth’s leaders had made to sell us to the aliens who protected our planet.I’d grown up with the propaganda. It was our civic duty.
