Book Description:
It's been four weeks since Ember Brycin witnessed what her powers are capable of. The Electrical Current Storm has turned Seattle, Washington into a natural disaster zone. The death toll is in the thousands with countless others homeless and hungry.
And Ember is the one who caused it. Something she will have to live with every day.
Those people who were unable to escape either turned quickly into gangs or live in shelters. Ember, on the other hand, can’t do either. With a price on her head and a Dark Dweller on her ass, she is constantly on the move. Both Light and Dark are hunting her for their own purpose to use her as a weapon or a pawn in the war between the Unseelie King of the Dark and the Seelie Queen of the Light.
Em needs help but doesn’t know who to trust: Lars, the mystery man Torin told her to find? Torin, the Seelie Queen’s personal knight, who has sworn to keep Em safe? Or Eli, who wants to turn her over to the Unseelie King, but whom she has an undeniable, intense connection with?
No matter what she chooses she will probably lose—her life or everything and everyone she loves.

My Review:
I loved Darkness of Light, and I just couldn't wait to read Fire in the Darkness. This book did not disappoint me. But how am I going to survive waiting for the next book? Seriously this is going to be the longest wait ever. I need to know what will happen! How could you do this to us Mrs. Stacey Brown? There was no big cliffhanger, it's just that the whole story itself makes you want to know more and more of the characters secrets and relationships.
The story takes place a month after the first book ended.Ember is on a run and everyone in Otherworld and this world is after her. She is consumed with guilt of what she did, she only keeps on going for a chance to save her family. She doesn't know who to trust or what to do, any wrong decision can easily get her killed. On one hand there is a sexy, hard to resist Eli who she has a strong connection with, but she knows she has to keep away from, but can she? There is also Torin who is opposite of Eli, who seems to care and really try to help her, but can she trust him? So many answers she has to figure out, with so little time left to save people she cares about.
Ember is a strong developed character, she has a traits that you can easily love, like her internal dialogue and her true emotions, but some that can easily annoy you, like rushing to make decisions without thinking things through. But we all do that, just not as much as Ember.Of course my favorite parts of the books, her smart interactions with Eli....not only him, she has a bitch moods with other people too, which makes me like her even more. Eli...well I think looking at my review for Darkness of Light, its clear that he is my future lover because man that boy can effect you, with his hotness, and his smart, delicious mouth *dreamy drooling*....So yeah, don't you guys dare think about him *scary face* There is a few new characters that we will meet, but I can't say anything about them because I don't want to spoil it for you, because I know you would want to read it and find out for yourself. *caugh... There is a lot of sweaty moments...caugh...and a new hotness*

Stacey Marie Brown by day is an Interior/Set Designer, by night a writer of Paranormal Fantasy, Adventure, and Literary Fiction. She grew up in Northern California, where she ran around on her family’s farm, raising animals, riding horses, playing flashlight tag, and turning hay bales into cool forts. Even before she could write, she was creating stories and making up intricate fantasies. Writing came as easy as breathing. She later turned that passion into acting, living and traveling abroad, and designing. Though she had never stopped writing, moving back to San Francisco seemed to have brought it back to the forefront and this time it would not be ignored.
When she’s not writing she’s out hiking, spending time with friends, traveling, listening to music, or designing.
