Legacy (Wentworth)

His game plan was simple. Qualify for the Culling. Find a woman. Win the presidency. It was a carefully cultivated plan that dictated all his life's decisions... until two women upend everything. Twenty-one years after his parents won the presidency, a Culling is called. James has waited his entire life for this moment, a chance to carry on his parents' legacy. Meanwhile, whispers in Denver of an "Heir's Curse" make a Reed winning the presidency seem impossible. A presidential heir has never won a Culling before, but there has also never been a Culling where three heirs could qualify. James and his siblings are determined to break the so-called curse and prove them all wrong. But when forced to choose between the easy love that could secure the presidency and a difficult one, what will James do?

She wants to win the presidency, even when the odds seem stacked against her. Kennedy has worked her entire life to prepare for the Culling, to follow in her parents' footsteps and win the presidency. But when she discovers her first love was just using her last name, Kennedy is now more determined to win than ever. The obstacles just keep piling up, though. Kennedy's ex is surviving the Culling's cuts too, and he is making finding a new partner awkward. Not to mention, half of Denver believes she and her brothers don't stand a chance, thanks to the Heir's Curse. Worst of all, a Rebel traitor is hiding within the Culling, seeking to take power. If Kennedy could win the presidency on her own, that would be one thing. But the Culling requires her to find a partner to help her lead the country. Can Kennedy find someone who is her equal in strength, grit, and intellect, despite being fiercely independent? More importantly, can she ever trust another man? Time is short. Kennedy must regain her faith in love-before her ex, or the Rebels, tear down everything her parents worked so hard to build.

He's been living in the shadows of his siblings his whole life. Now he's in a race against them to the Culling's final four. Elijah Reed knew qualifying for the Culling was possible, but as the youngest Reed, he was never expected to follow in his parents' footsteps. When he finds himself immersed in the Culling anyway, he is skeptical from the get-go. Eli's skepticism only increases after several shady candidates survive multiple cuts and evidence of an inside traitor surfaces. Eli realizes he can no longer remain neutral and blend into the background as he has always done. He must ensure a trustworthy couple wins the presidency-whether it includes him or not. With the future of the country at stake and danger looming, can a viable pairing really win it all? Can Eli find a Culling partner and be one of those viable options? And after a reckless decision that changes everything, will he take a chance on love before it's too late?

Three votes. Two enemies. One new Presidential Couple. James, Kennedy, and Elijah Reed have waited their entire lives to see how this Culling would play out. Now it's time for the final four debates, the last chance to sway voters into choosing worthy leadership for the nation. But when the debates take a surprising turn and a horrific incident rocks the township tour, the Reeds know trouble lies ahead. They still have enemies, both outside the Culling and from within. Now the Reeds must do what each does best, though it may not be what they expect. Will the Heirs' Curse strike again? Who will be leading the country into a new era?
