Publisher Description: I'm still two girls living inside one skin... My soft center is the Chloe I was born to be; the outer shell, as thick as armor, is the girl I was forced to become. The place they send seventeen-year-old Chloe Doe is better than where she was. Better than the streets, or so she's told. The Madeline Parker Institute for Girls is the place that can change her-- that is, if she can let go of the past that has nearly destroyed her. Inspiring in her ability to overcome, Chloe Doe is poised to show the power of perseverance and, above all, hope. |
