Every year three young people are drawn to be representatives of every remaining district in North America on a bloody reality show. Emmaline Windsor was a nice and polite young woman who came from a troubled family and without much money. When the opportunity arises to work in a small bakery, the girl meets Peeta Mellark, with whom she falls in love as soon as her eyes meet his and with whom she shares the representativeness of district 12 in the hunger games.
