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...
“Compelling, imaginative, and unique. I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough!”

I had to look a few times at this cover before I saw the dress - I just thought it was an interesting modern art butterfly. The dress sure is pretty though and the premise of the story sounds interesting. Thanks for sharing new books with us Michelle. :)
