About this ebook

For Samantha, running means freedom. That is, until the day a morning run turns into a living nightmare. Samantha wakes up to find herself held hostage in a cabin. With a masked abductor repeatedly injecting her arm with an unknown substance, Samantha tries in vain to find out what he wants, but he refuses to speak. Until the day he breaks his silence and promises her one day she will fall in love with him but the best part will be that she won't know who he is... until it's too late.

there are several instances of than and then being switched. some other grammatical errors where i had to re-read a sentence in order to understand it. on the plus side, it's clean. the story was fine. the characters were kind of flat. a lot of stereotypes. the end really killed it for me. *without spoilers* i didn't feel like the mental disorder was presented fairly or accurately. it was presented as mythically extreme. the disorder doesn't actually work this way. it was also brought on by such relatively minor event that it just didn't play. it left more holes than it filled in. according to the plot summary of the second book, this continues.

This book has kept me coming back. It is riveting with so much suspense yet giving danger n a bit of sci-fi. It's rated as a teen book but is good for adults too. Give it a read I think you'll like it.

Great book, I thought that this was going to be a teen romance book but to my joyful surprise it wasn't. I really enjoyed reading this book and I suggest to anyone who comes across it to read it because they will be surprised like I was...

About the author

Born in Dekalb, Illinois, Amanda Strong has called Utah, Arizona, Hawaii, Virginia, and now New Mexico home. She has loved to spin tales since childhood. It was not uncommon to find her hiding in some random corner, scribbling away in her spiral-bound notebook, with her bright pink glasses. You could say some things have not changed.
Amanda signed with Clean Teen Publishing in the fall of 2013. She is the author of two paranormal, YA series: The Watchers of Men and Monsters Among Us.

The first novel in The Watchers of Men series, The Awakener, debuted in October of 2013. It has been an Amazon number one best seller in three Young Adult categories. Book two, The Holy and The Fallen, released May 12th of 2015. She is currently working on book three, The Watcher's Mark, releasing spring of 2016.

Hidden Monster released November 4th of 2014, and it finished as a Finalist in the 2014 USA Best Book Award: Young Adult Category. It is book one of a brand-new young adult, sci-fi thriller series called Monsters Among Us.

When Amanda isn't writing, you can find her chasing her three rambunctious children around the house and spending time with her wonderful and supportive husband. On some occasions, you can still find Amanda with her not-so-pink glasses, hiding in a corner reading her favorite young adult fantasy novels or working out only to blow her diet by eating ice cream.
