INTO THE FIRE
by Lindsey Fairleigh and Lindsey Pogue
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
…death…mutation…insanity…corruption…terror…
…all that remains is hope.
In the wake
of destruction left behind by the Virus, it took Dani and Zoe months to find
each other. But their reunion was short-lived. Dani has been taken, and though
little distance separates them, they might as well be worlds apart.
From the
moment she hears Dani’s scream, Zoe’s only goal is to save her best friend. She
and her companions scramble to come up with a rescue plan, but when a ghost
from Jake’s past reappears, lines are blurred, decisions become harder, and
secrets are revealed…and some secrets are best left buried. To keep heartache and
fear from consuming her, Zoe must cling to her determination. She will see Dani again.
Dani awakens
inside the final hold-out of civilization: the Colony. Remnants of the former
world surround her—electricity, safety, social order—but all is not what it seems.
As she faces her most manipulative adversary yet, she loses sight of who she is
and who she can trust. Friends become enemies, enemies become allies, and
allies will betray her. Dani will have
to decide what she’s willing to do and whose lives she’s willing to risk if she
is to have any chance of breaking free.

Excerpt 1 (Dani): 272 words
“Tell me! Who
was I with?”
“Zoe…and
Jason.”
“What?” I
screeched and scurried away from him to huddle on the edge of the bed. “I don’t
know what you’re talking about!” Zoe was in Massachusetts and was probably
dead, and Jason…Jason was…I didn’t know. Why would I have been with Jason?
Nothing was making sense. Scrunching my eyes closed, I tried to remember, but
the harder I tried, the more my head hurt. Panic churned within me, making me
feel sick. My heart beat heavily, like my blood was too thick, and my lungs
felt constricted.
“Dani,” Gabe
said, and I felt the bed shift behind me. He scooted closer, joining me on the
edge of the bed and draping his arm over my bare shoulders. “I’m sorry. I
didn’t mean to upset you.”
Only when I
looked up at him did I realize tears were streaking down my cheeks. “I don’t
want to think about them…about any of it,” I told him. “If they’re gone…I just
want to forget. I just want to be here, with you.”
“Dani, I
think we should…”
I tilted my
face up, leaning in closer to the safety and comfort of his body. “What?”
“Probably not
be…”
“What?” I
asked, raising my hand to his face. I brushed my thumb over his chin, feeling
the rough stubble covering it, and angled his face lower.
“In here,
doing this.” He breathed in jerkily when my thumb brushed across his full lower
lip. It was soft and dry and begging to be kissed.

AUTHOR Bio and Links:
Lindsey
Fairleigh lives her life with one foot in a book—as long as that book
transports her to a magical world or bends the rules of science. Her novels,
from post-apocalyptic to time travel and historical fantasy, always offer up a
hearty dose of unreality, along with plenty of adventure and romance. When
she's not working on her next novel, Lindsey spends her time reading and trying
out new recipes in the kitchen. She lives in the Napa Valley with her loving
husband and confused cats.
Lindsey Pogue
has always been a little creative. As a child she established a bug hospital on
her elementary school soccer field, compiled books of collages as a teenager,
and as an adult, expresses herself through writing. Her novels are inspired by
her observations of the world around her--whether she's traveling, people
watching, or hiking. When not plotting her next story line or dreaming up new,
brooding characters, Lindsey's wrapped in blankets watching her favorite action
flicks or going on road trips with her own leading man.
