Good news! I’ve advanced to that stage in the manuscript-becomes-a-book metamorphosis in which my life becomes remarkably less complicated: Line Edits! (To be fair, I think the lives of the other hardworking people on the A5 team become increasingly complicated, but not me! Ha!) After some fairly harrowing revisions to book 2 (which you may recall is now titled BREAKING POINT!) we have come out... read more »

“Ember, you're the only piece of me I have left. Everything else-my family, my home, my soul- they're all gone. I don't know who the hell I am anymore. If it weren't for you... I don't know.”
Kristen Simmons, Article 5

“It was you," I say softly. "It's always you I think about."

The intensity in his gaze took my breath away. I could feel him. Every part of him. His soul was sewn to mine. His heated blood flowed through my veins. I'd thought that I had been close to my mother, and I was, but not like this. Chase and I barely touched- our hands, mouths, knees- but there was no part of me that was not his.”
Kristen Simmons, Article 5

“Losing your family….it puts fear in a different perspective,” he said. “Besides, I got by all right. I stayed on the fringe around Chicago, hoped around tent cities and Red Cross camps. Worked for some people who didn’t ask questions. Avoided case-workers and foster care. And thought about you.”
“Me?” I huffed, completely unsettled. In awe at how vanilla my life seemed. In awe of what he’d endured, He turned then, meeting my eyes for the first time. When he spoke, his voice was gentle, and unashamed.
“You. The only thing in my life that doesn’t change. When everything went to hell, you were all I had.”
Kristen Simmons, Article 5
