For thirty-six boys, the “Selection” is the chance of a lifetime. In a future in which the United States has given way to the American State of China, and more recently to Panem, a young country with a society divided into districts, the competition that brings together boys between sixteen and twenty years of age from all over to decide who will marry with the princess is the opportunity to escape a reality imposed on them in their crib. It's a chance to be lifted from a world of limited possibilities into a world of dazzling suits and priceless jewels. From living in a palace, winning the heart of the beautiful Princess Katniss and one day being the king. For Peeta Mellark, however, a gardener from District Seven, being among the Selected is a nightmare. It means leaving Delly, the girl he truly loves, who is four districts up. It means abandoning his family and home to enter a fierce contest for a crown he doesn't want. And living in a palace under the constant threat of rebel attacks. So Peeta personally meets the princess. Kind, polite, funny and very, very charming, Katniss is nothing like what you would expect. They form an alliance, and slowly Peeta begins to reflect on everything he's planned for himself—and realizes that the life he's always dreamed of may be nothing compared to the future he'd never dared to imagine. *Synopsis taken from the book "The Selection", with modifications to fit the story.
