Dare To Prevail Parallel World Book Five

Dare to Prevail is a follow-up novel to Dare to Resist, Dare to Endure, and Dare to Defy and is meant to be read after you’ve read those books. Morgan Campbell has always followed the rules—regular weigh-ins, only eating what she’s supposed to—all in an effort to guarantee she’s never noticed by the Enforcers, the people who make sure all citizens obey the law. So when a boy she’s never met before tells her that Enforcers are hunting for her and that she needs to go with him, she doesn’t hesitate. To her horror, she discovers that another girl named Morgan—a girl from a parallel world—has spent two months impersonating her and has made enemies in high places. When Morgan is taken in by Nick, the leader of a resistance group, she is forced to come to grips with the destruction that has become her life. Not only are Enforcers eager to capture her, but everyone believes she is the one who has suffered at the hands of the Enforcers and then escaped not once, but twice, from the Federally Assisted Thinning Centers where the Morgan from the parallel world was locked up. Can she get her life back? Or will she find herself paying for the mistakes of the girl who pretended to be her?

Trapped in a parallel universe where it is illegal to be overweight, sixteen-year-old Morgan Campbell is on the run with Billy Foster, the boy who helped her escape Camp Willowmoss, the Federally Assisted Thinning (F.A.T.) Center where they were both held prisoner. With nowhere to go, and no resources, they fear for their lives as they hide from the Enforcers who would capture them. Morgan has six weeks until the right date, at which time she can pass back through the portal that brought her to this world. Will she be able to stay free until that date arrives, or will the Enforcers find her and lock her up, condemning her to live in this dangerous reality forever?
