Keeper by Ingrid Seymour
400 pages
For them, free will is a luxury . . .
Greg Papilio both wants and dreads his impending metamorphosis. He's tired of being an ugly runt--always picked last on the basketball court--when he could be strong and what girls call "drop dead gorgeous." But as much as he looks forward to the transformation, he also fears the caste it will inevitably assign to him. He doesn't want a common caste. He wants a powerful one, a cool one.
Samantha Gibson is average. She's short and a little full around the hips--a terribly cute look for a future chef. She's two years away from culinary school, from her uncaring parents, and from carving a perfectly Human future. She wants independence, a career and a quiet life of her own.
Except fate couldn't care less about what Greg and Samantha want and gives them exactly the opposite. Greg's metamorphosis assigns him a caste that enslaves him, while Samantha's chance to attend Le Cordon Bleu is taken away. But things are never as interesting as when Ashby--an intriguing blonde with a hidden identity--enters her life with a splash.
Greg's fate is to be Samantha's Keeper, to protect her at a time when someone wants her dead. He will stop at nothing to ensure her safety, even if her secret past proves deadly, even if he's keeping her safe for someone else.

EXCERPT:
“I know. By the way, Reed called me. He’s back from chess camp, and he’s wondering if you wanna go out.”
“Man, he doesn’t give up, does he?”
“Maybe you two should go to a movie or something. Just so you both can get it out of your systems.”
“I have nothing to get out of my system. I don’t want to go out with him. You know that.”
“I meant you can have your first date and get that out of your system,” Brooke clarified.
“You’re the one who’s obsessed with me going on a date. Maybe you’re the one who needs to get it out of her system, not me.”
“Fair enough,” Brooke admitted. “I’d just like to go on a double date with my BFF before we are . . . let’s say . . . forty?”
“Whatever!” In spite of herself, Sam laughed. Brooke always had a way of lifting her spirits.
