A Publishers Weekly Starred Review
“Best Sci-Fi Love Story of the Year”
Remember How It Feels to Fall in Love?

Race against the clock through a dystopian nightmare. Climb naked into an untested time machine (carrying only a seashell and a promise). Wake up twenty years younger on a tropical beach, buck naked and mortally wounded, with your heart in your throat.

This is a journey of love, loss, and redemption that will make your pulse gallop and your palms sweat, have you laughing out loud through your tears, and leave you flush with the sublime pleasure of falling in love.

 Dead Time (Excerpt #1)
D. L. Orton
Between Two Evils #3

I stand with the rain hitting my helmet and watch the Cessna ascend into the stormy sky. I feel like an abandoned astronaut on a failed Mars mission, my last chance to go home disappearing before my eyes.
Somehow, I don’t think potatoes are going to save me.
When the airplane vanishes into the dark clouds, I close my eyes and let the tears fall. I imagine myself sitting next to Bearheart in the backseat, wondering if the boys at C-Bay will be nice to me, or if the girls will think I’m dank. I can see Mr. C gripping the armrests and looking nervous as Madders files us up and over the rough air. I smile and tell him not to worry, we’ve got the best pilot in the whole wide world, and he’ll get us out of this nasty weather, no problemo.
A flash of lightning brings me back to the present. The wind is ripping at the loose tabs on my biosuit, hurling huge raindrops against me like projectiles. I have thirty minutes of O2 left on my tank and one emergency air canister. My sketchpad is tucked inside a pocket of my suit, along with the lucky seashell Mr. C gave me, but that’s it. I take a sip of the dwindling water supply in my suit and turn toward the dilapidated biodome, feeling anxious and scared.
Mom always says that bravery is being the only one who knows you’re afraid.
I’m trying to be brave, Mom, but it’s harder than I thought.
All the jeeps and other equipment are gone now, and I count four dingy biosuits slogging toward me through the downpour. I gaze up at the sloped wall of the massive biodome, wishing it didn’t look so… alien.
What would Madders do?
He’d be collecting data, not blubbering like a D-2 who fell off a swing and scraped her knee. Identify the problem, engineer a solution, and Bob’s your uncle.

I force down a sob and get to work.

If someone took everything you live for, how far would you go to get it back?

When a faulty time machine deposits Diego at the top of a pine tree, he knows he's in the wrong place--but has no idea he's in the wrong time. Naked and shivering in the chilly mountain air, he attempts to climb down, but slips, whacks his head, and falls into oblivion.

He wakes up inside a darkened room, crippled and disheartened, and must come to grips with the realization that he is marooned in a bleak alternate future. In this universe, what remains of the human race is trapped inside a handful of aging biodomes. With his mission failed, his world destroyed, and the one woman he loves, dead, he can find no reason to go on living.

But Lani, the emotionally scarred doctor who finds him, refuses to let him die, and as Diego heals, their relationship becomes... complicated. He struggles to let go of the past but is unable to get Isabel out of his head--or his heart. Just when it seems he may be able to find some measure of happiness in a world teetering on the edge of extinction...

Another note arrives from the future: Isabel is alive--but not for long...

If someone took everything you live for, how far would you go to get it back?

From award-winning author D. L. ORTON comes book three in the Between Two Evils series...

Shannon fights to stay alive inside a rogue biodome and discovers something totally unexpected... Peter. Lani is forced into the role of the reluctant heroine but rediscovers her street-kid mojo and sets out to find everything she's lost. Diego receives another dirty sock (and a note) from the poorly aimed fireball express: "The window between universes is closing." If Diego has any hope of getting back to Iz, he must get to the Magic Kingdom and power up the time machine before it's too late.

What could possibly go wrong?
