In a world where the privileged few are enveloped in grandeur and the rest live in the shadows, thirty-five young women are summoned to compete for a crown and a chance at love. The Selection presents an extraordinary opportunity that not only promises a fairy tale life but also potential heartbreak and fierce rivalries. Among them is America Singer, a girl from a humble background who finds herself torn between her feelings for her secret love and the desire for a better future.
As the competition unfolds within the royal palace, the stakes grow higher. Each challenge and event reveals not only the girls' ambitions but also their true selves, forcing America to confront her feelings and the stark divides between social classes. Amidst the glittering gowns and extravagant parties, friendships are tested, alliances are formed, and betrayal lurks in every corner.
The journey is not merely about winning a prince's heart; it delves into the struggles of identity, loyalty, and the cost of aspirations. In a world that demands conformity, America must navigate her own path, leading her to make choices that could change everything, for herself and for the kingdom.
