Welcome to the war.
The Tesla Institute is a premier academy that trains young time travelers called Rifters. Created by Nicola Tesla, the Institute seeks special individuals who can help preserve the time stream against those who try to alter it.
The Hollows is a rogue band of Rifters who tear through time with little care for the consequences. Armed with their own group of lost teens--their only desire to find Tesla and put an end to his corruption of the time stream.
Torn between them are Lex and Ember, two Rifters with no memories of their life before joining the time war.
When Lex’s girlfriend dies during a mission, the only way he can save her is to retrieve the Dox, a piece of tech which allows Rifters to re-enter their own timeline without collapsing the time stream. But the Dox is hidden deep within the Telsa Institute, which means Lex must go into the enemy camp. It’s there he meets Ember, and the past that was stolen from them both comes flooding back.
Now armed with the truth of who they are, Lex and Ember must work together to save the future before the battle for time destroys them both…again.
So what do you think? Does this cover scream steampunk or what?!? Lisa Amowitz has designed awesome covers for SHP, and Extracted's cover is just as great!

ABOUT THE AUTHORS
Sherry is a full time writer from Colorado where she lives with her
husband, four kids, two dogs, and a fluctuating number of chickens and
house guests. A former military brat, she loves to travel, eat exotic
food, and meet new people. She can often be found browsing her local
bookstore with a large white hot chocolate in one hand and a towering
stack of books in the other. That is, unless she's on deadline at which
time she, like the Loch Ness monster, is often only seen in blurry
photographs.
Extracted is the seventh novel by Sherry D. Ficklin and the first with co-author Tyler H. Jolley.
