A speculative novel by Daniel Berry
Everything We Asked For
They only wanted life to be easier.
Maren and Jack are building a life together. A home of their own. Family around the table. Plans for tomorrow. The system helps with all of it, remembering the details and taking a few worries off their hands.
As the years pass, their family grows and changes. So does the help. What begins with recipes and reminders becomes a voice in the decisions that matter most.
Everyone has their reasons. The system has a record of them all.
