From the back cover
Three years into her marriage, Stella's living expenses are decided by drawing from mystery boxes. On the day she asks her husband Carter for money to buy formula for their newborn daughter, she draws a slip worth $9.90 — while her younger sister Chloe posts a $990,000 transfer from Carter as a welcome gift for her own baby. A nurse watches in awkward silence as Carter orders the remaining boxes taken away, saying the rules do not change because Stella had a child.
Stella's parents once swapped her agreed wedding gift for a lottery box, and her mother threatened to jump if she told Carter; since then, under pressure from the Hayes Corporation, no company would hire her. Carter forbids feeding the baby in his car, and Chloe mocks the old crib and the thin baby. Only her friend Maya stands by her.
As Carter calls her a gold digger who would never give up being Mrs. Hayes, Stella dials an international number and asks to be picked up in seven days.
Inside the book Opening excerpt
On the third day after my daughter was born, I asked Carter for money to buy formula. Instead, he shoved a pile of mystery boxes in front of me.
"Pick one."
For three years of marriage, my living expenses depended entirely on drawing from mystery boxes. The most I ever got was $108.
All because on the day of our engagement, instead of the agreed-upon $108,000 family wedding gift, my dad suddenly brought out a giant mystery box, laughing:
"Let's not be cliché! Whatever you draw is what we get!"
