Summary from Goodreads:
Since the
age of ten, Mia has lived under the iron fist of the fundamentalist preacher
who lured her mother away to join his fanatical family of followers. In
Edenton, a supposed “Garden of Eden” deep in the South American jungle,
everyone follows the Reverend’s strict but arbitrary rules—even the mandate of
whom they can marry. Now sixteen, Mia dreams of slipping away from the armed
guards who keep the faithful in, and the curious out. When the rebellious and
sexy Gabriel, a new boy, arrives with his family, Mia sees a chance to escape.
But the scandalous secrets the two discover beyond the compound’s façade are more shocking than anything they ever imagined. While Gabriel has his own terrible secrets, he and Mia bond together, more than friends and freedom fighters. But is there time to think of each other as they race to stop the Reverend’s paranoid plan to free his flock from the corrupt world? Can two teenagers crush a criminal mastermind? And who will die in the fight to save the ones they love from a madman who’s only concerned about his own secrets?

ADVANCED PRAISE
“The chemistry between Mia and Gabriel is palpable in their
teasing dialogue and sizzling moments of physical connection. Its rewards … are
many: fast-moving action, a capable heroine and a resolution that leaves plenty
of room for a sequel.” – Kirkus Reviews [STARRED REVIEW]
“Debut author Elisa Nader hits a strong note with her ESCAPE
FROM EDEN… At-times swoony, at-times extremely dangerous, and at-other times
completely shocking.” - Examiner.com
"Nader has done something amazing: written a really
original novel, one full of characters you’ll care about; smart, witty dialog;
and plenty of shocks and thrills. A wonderful balance of light and dark."
—Michael Grant, New York Times Bestselling Author of the Gone Series
"An exciting, terrifying, page-turning thrill ride you
will not be able to put down.” - Gretchen McNeil, Author of POSSESS, TEN
and 3:59
About the Author
Hi. I’m Elisa. I like cheese and reading and TV show
marathons. Writing is scary, but not as scary as, say, Civil War amputations.
I’m an Aquarius. Uh… let’s see… I’m not very good at writing my own biography.
Or autobiography. I guess this is reading more like a slightly incoherent
personal ad.
