Publisher's Synopsis
Caged by the scientist who made her from the torn limbs of accident victims, born into a painful whirlwind of light and sound, all Eden knows is the flickering world of Nickelodeon TV. Until she escapes to the mall, meets a fifteen year old fashionista, and begins to awake to the true potential of her superpowers.
Casting off the shackles of her overprotective creator, she's determined to go to high school, like any normal teen girl. But the more she learns about teenage life, the more Eden realizes she's different from the other kids. None of them can talk to animals the way she can. None of them can outrun cars, or lift one overhead. Other girls might feel the same strange tingle when a boy kisses them - none of them can toss him across the room when he does something that hurts.
Caught in between her desire to fit in and the superhero she was born to be, Eden is drawn like a magnet towards a blonde bad boy called Chase. Soon, she discovers she's not the only one remaking herself to get his attention.
Abandoned by her middle-school besties to navigate freshman year alone, Darcy vows to join the popular crowd - even if that means betraying the sensitive, artsy nerd she is inside. A dramatic new hairstyle and edgy new clothes win a date with the boy of her dreams. But when that dream turns into a nightmare, only a superhero can save her from disaster.
Hailed as "a dramatic and engrossing look at the everyday horrors adolescents face," Eden is the story of a frankengirl coming of age, a friendship forged in blood, and awkward adolescents growing into fierce social justice avengers. When Eden and Darcy team up to battle a sexual predator, nothing can stop them in their crusade to liberate their true selves.
