Tarnished by Kate Jarvik Birch
Tarnished (Perfected #2) by Kate Jarvik Birch Release Date: 2015 Entangled Teen Summary from Goodreads: Freedom comes at a cost… Ella was genetically engineered to be the perfect pet—graceful, demure…and kept. In a daring move, she escaped her captivity and took refuge in Canada. But while she can think and act as she pleases, the life of a liberated pet is just as confining as the Congressman’s gilded cage. Her escape started a revolution, but she’s trapped, unable to get back to Penn—the boy she loves—or help the girls who need her. Back in the United States, pets are turning up dead. With help from a very unexpected source, Ella slips deep into the dangerous black market, posing as a tarnished pet available to buy or sell. If she’s lucky, she’ll be able to rescue Penn and expose the truth about the breeding program. If she fails, Ella will pay not only with her life, but the lives of everyone she’s tried to save… Add to Goodreads Buy Links: Amazon│Barnes & Noble│Kobo Books Book One (Perfected): Goodreads│Amazon│Barnes & Noble Praise for Perfected: “Compelling, imaginative, and unique.
