After a synthetic hormone in beef killed fifty million American women ten years ago, only young girls, old women, men, and boys are left to pick up the pieces. The death threat is past, but fathers still fear for their daughters' safety, and the Paternalist Movement, begun to protect young women, is taking over the choices they make.\u003cbr\u003eLike all her friends, Avie still mourns the loss of her mother, but she's also dreaming about college and love and what she'll make of her life. When her dad contracts her to marry a rich, older man to raise money to save his struggling company, her life suddenly narrows to two choices: Be trapped in a marriage with a controlling politician, or run. Her lifelong friend, student revolutionary Yates, urges her to run to freedom across the border to Canada. As their friendship turns to passion, the decision to leave becomes harder and harder. Running away is incredibly dangerous, and it's possible Avie will never see Yates again. But staying could mean death.\u003cbr\u003eFrom Catherine Linka comes this romantic, thought-provoking, and frighteningly real story, \u003ci\u003eA Girl Called Fearless\u003c\/i\u003e, about fighting for the most important things in life--freedom and love.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCATHERINE LINKA was almost thrown out of boarding school for being too verbal.
