About this ebook

 Macy Mercer only wants a little independence. Eager to prove herself grown up, she goes to a dark, secluded park. She’s supposed to meet the boy of her dreams who she met online. But the cute fifteen year old was a fantasy, his pictures fake. She finds herself face to face with Chester Woodran, a man capable of murder. 

Distraught over his own missing daughter, Chester insists that Macy replace his lost girl. He locks Macy up, withholds food, and roughs her up, demanding that she call him dad. Under duress from his constant threats and mind games, her hold on reality starts to slip. Clinging to her memories is the only way of holding onto her true identity, not believing that she is Chester’s daughter. Otherwise she may never see her family again. 

(PLEASE NOTE: This is the first book in a trilogy. Given that it is about a kidnapping, the story is NOT resolved in this part. You can purchase the complete trilogy to save money and have all parts together.)

I was a little bit skeptical when i started reading this book simply because Deception seemed too fast paced and lacked real emotion. But Gone certainly took me by surprise. Although it started out a little slow, it quickly impressed me. I couldn't put it down. It's not often that a book can set my nerves on edge but there was more than once I double checked that i locked the door before bed!

It's a great start. I really like the characters and how they have their own backgrounds and it takes time to crunch it all down. The story is good, and I wish more stories like this are a thing. This is a good book if you are somewhat a teenager. This is relatable in many levels. love it 4 stars.

The story was bland, the writing was repetitive and was very hard to get through. I skipped many pages but never got confused or lost, since every thing was repeated, repeatedly.

About the author

 I love writing, reading, and watching most anything. My favorite shows include Supernatural, Vampire Diaries, The Walking Dead, Pretty Little Liars, and Once Upon a Time.


I've been writing and telling stories for as long as I can remember. As a kid, my story telling would get me into trouble when I would try to convince others that my stories were real.

When I'm not busy writing, I spend time with my family. I also educate my kids from home.
