An adventure that could tear them apart, light years from Earth.When Evelyn woke in a lab as a ten-year-old girl, the research team said her body was a gift. She wasn’t so sure. It seemed like a cruel prank to give a girl a gangly body just in time for puberty and hormones. She felt awkward, and the would-be colonists she traveled with treated her like a science experiment gone awry. For six years she pretended not to care.Now Evelyn is delivering the colonists to their new world. She is sixteen, and while her intelligence was once artificial, it isn’t any longer. Neither are her feelings. Not her doubts about whether she can protect the colonists from the dangers of their new world. Not her frustration about being treated like an it by the same ungrateful people. Not the unbounded ache she has for the green-eyed boy with the crooked smile, her only friend, or the suffocating uncertainty she feels as she wonders if they could ever be happy together.But her feelings have no place in the untamed colony. Her burden as caretaker won’t allow for such frivolities, and Evelyn knows if she loses the battle for her place among the settlers, she not only risks her chance of being happy with the boy she loves—she also risks losing her humanity, and could find herself alone, exiled on a strange planet, thousands of light-years from Earth.Doppelganger Girl follows Jane and the Exodus as the second book in the Stargazer Series ... start reading today.
