"Compelling, imaginative, and unique. I couldn't turn the pages fast
enough!" -- Mary Lindsey, author of Haven
Perfection comes at a price.
As soon as the government passed legislation allowing humans to be
genetically engineered and sold as pets, the rich and powerful rushed to
own beautiful girls like Ella. Trained from birth to be graceful,
demure, and above all, perfect, these "family companions" enter their
masters' homes prepared to live a life of idle luxury.
Ella is happy with her new role as playmate for a congressman's bubbly
young daughter, but she doesn't expect Penn, the congressman's handsome
and rebellious son. He's the only person who sees beyond the perfect
exterior to the girl within. Falling for him goes against every rule she
knows...and the freedom she finds with him is intoxicating.
But when Ella is kidnapped and thrust into the dark underworld lurking
beneath her pampered life, she's faced with an unthinkable choice.
Because the only thing more dangerous than staying with Penn's family is
leaving...and if she's unsuccessful, she'll face a fate far worse than
death.
For fans of Keira Cass's Selection series and Lauren DeStefano's
Chemical Garden series, Perfected by Kate Jarvik Birch is a chilling
look at what it means to be human, and a stunning celebration of the
power of love to set us free, wrapped in a glamorous--and
dangerous--bow.
The Perfected series is best enjoyed in order.
