Someone's watching him. Rylan Forester just can't shake the feeling he's being followed, and the dreams he's been having aren't helping either, dreams of a green horned monster kissing him by the swamp behind his house. They're the last thing he needs in his life right now anyway, with a distant father, a best friend who's crushing on him, a school bully after his hide, and a greedy land developer after his family's property. After an almost tragic accident, Rylan's world is turned upside down with one important discovery-the monster's real, and she needs his help. Drawn into her world, what starts as simple friendship has the chance to become something greater. But trouble isn't far away, and it's going to take all of Rylan's efforts to keep his new friend safe.
