Donate Body to Science. Check.
When seventeen-year-old Kaitlyn checked the box, she never suspected sheβd have her lifeβand her bodyβstolen from her. She awakens one day in a secret laboratory to discover that her body is now half-robot and is forced to hide her own secret: that she still has human emotions and a human mind. If the scientists who made her find out, theyβll erase what remains of who she was.
Kaitlyn finds an unlikely ally in Lucas, a handsome, brilliant scientist who canβt get over the guilt he feels knowing she was once a vibrant, beautiful young woman. He never expected a science project to affect him the way she does. As he tries to help her rediscover her past, he finds himself falling for the brave girl struggling to find her place and acceptance between the human and computer worlds.

Review
** "Freak of Nature is a refreshing read, because it doesn't truly fit the mold of a particular genre. It has romance, action, science, and suspense. Julia Crane's writing has matured so much and it is truly shown in her new book." ~examiner.com**
