People start to go missing only to reappear later...but different. Sherry has an abusive ex-boyfriend who shows up on her doorstep and claims to be one of these beings. He's no longer the same person in that body. He tells her he has come to protect her and her brother and takes her underground, against her will, to save her. There they meet others like them. She begins to unravel the truth about Merrick, about what he's really doing here, about the way he looks at her, about the crazy new dangerous world they live in. Can he convince her that he's here to help? Will she like what she finds when she opens up to the truth? Will he be the one to love her when everyone else has failed her? Will he be able to protect her?

From the Author:
"We are gonna be here together for a while so it would be nice if you'd get use to the idea... Sherry," he breathes my name with such a sweet tone. I can feel his breath on my face now. He's closer. "I can't believe I'm actually here. Actually touching you." His thumb rubs back and forth over my cheek. "You don't know how long I've... Just try to get some sleep. We'll all go over everything together later, ok. By the way, my name is Merrick. I'll be around when you wake up."
He lets his hands slide away from my face slowly, almost reluctantly, then I hear him shuffle from the room.
