Some fates are worse than death--survival is one of them. In the two hundred years since humanity left the Earth's surface to live in the sky, life on the ground faded to a myth, a tragic memory from which they severed themselves to survive. They floated above continents turned to sand and lands swallowed by the seas, watched storm after storm rage against their cities and their monuments until they broke apart the last vestiges of civilization in penance for generations of human greed. As a lightning harvester charged with flying her ship into these storms for energy, Raina has seen more of the planet than most. She has spent her entire life soaring above its craters and scars, studying the gaping wounds of human devastation, as she honed her skills and became the youngest captain in storm-chaser history. Her ship has flown for generations. Her skills are unparalleled. But none of that matters the day they go down. ~ Praise for Earth, After: "I'm so not ready for this ending.

**WATTYS LONGLISTED** Elaina Dobson's life has always been pretty simple: stay out of trouble, get into an Ivy League, and never let Asher figure out how she feels about him. Now that she's made it to her final semester of senior year, it should be smooth sailing, right? Wrong. When James Flemming appears in her life it seems like the perfect opportunity for Elaina to forget about Asher completely and have some fun while doing it. But plans are always a little more complicated when feelings get involved, and Elaina Dobson never would of thought that James Flemming could threaten her three simple plans so effortlessly.
