Emancipated

(Authorized excerpt of EMANCIPATED by M.G. Reyes published by Katherine Tegen Books, an imprint of Harper Collins.)

The bad boy, the good girl, the diva, the hustler, the rocker, and the nerd. Six teens legally liberated from parental control for six different reasons, but all with one thing in common: something to hide.

Secret #1: Not everyone is who they seem.

Now they're sharing a house in Venice Beach, acting like a family, and living their lies. One witnessed a crime, another might be a murderer-and one's been spying on them all.

Secret #2: Freedom isn't free.

As they cling to a fantasy of freedom and slowly let down their guard, the past creeps up on them. And when one of them gets arrested, everyone's carefully constructed facade comes crumbling down.

Secret #3: The truth will come out.

Emancipated is the first book in a blistering guessing game of a series where relationships are tested and worlds collide.
