Summer began writing when she was 13 years old, due to the fact that the long afternoons after school were somewhat boring, and writing stories seemed to make the time pass a little quicker. Since then she has written many books about jungle cats, secret agents, princesses and spaceships. She is also a non-fiction writer, but her debut novels, State of Emergency and State of Chaos, are her favorite books yet.

Praise for State of Emergency (Book 1)

“I sat down to read State of Emergency and found myself unable to stop. The characters were well developed, the story constantly kept me on edge and I found myself quickly compelled to read more. Most novels take me about a week to read. I finished State of Emergency within two nights.”

“It was very compelling, and I enjoyed it all the way! You [Summer Lane] are quite a talented writer with an amazing gift for narration. Congratulations on a book well done!”

“This book is awesomesauce. Literally. Summer effortlessly tells the story of one girl’s need to survive whatever has happened to her country. She paints a realistic picture of the what if.”

“Even though SOE is a full length novel, I read it so fast—because I needed more!—that, when I finished, I felt like I had read a novella. It was fast paced, surprising, romancy, thrilling. A great book from the first word to the last!”

“State of Emergency is written with an assured and strong voice and the narrative moves (like the car Chris and Cassie escape, and LA thrown into chaos) with considerable speed; building tension and momentum with every turn of the kindle page.”

“I felt these two were quite likeable interesting characters, and I was impressed by Summer’s writing style. I can’t wait for the sequel to SOE. I rate this fantastic book five stars.”

“Held my attention firmly from start to finish, a really well written good story… Lovable characters, fun tension between Cassidy and Chris, and fingernail-scraping-on-chalkboard cringing trouble they frequently find and escape from.”

“State of Emergency does its job very well! It thrills you, it scares you, it keeps you reading like crazy because you just have to see what happens next, and, most important of all, it makes you feel. And that is not an easy feat for a book. I’m REALLY looking forward to reading what happens in the next book!”

“I loved pretty much everything about this book. The pacing was great, and I never once got bored. There was always something happening to keep things interesting, whether it was meeting strange people, trying to survive, or action scenes. I loved it.”

“Summer Lane knows how to keep you on the edge of your seat! This book is just one cliff hanger after another… Cassidy is a strong willed and strong minded girl with sharp wit and a mouth full of sassy comebacks. I absolutely loved her. The secondary MC, Chris — the incredibly hot navy seal who saves the sassy Cassidy’s butt on several occasions is swoon worthy and written very well.”

“State of Emergency is an engaging read that is compelling and believable. Some dystopian novels are so far removed from reality that it makes it difficult for the reader to co

“Really enjoyable post apocalyptic story… the struggle for survival keeps the story flowing nicely. Can’t wait for the next installment as this book ends on a cliff hanger.”

“It was so exciting and I never knew what would happen next. At the end it said, ‘To be continued’ and I hope that means there will be a sequel! I want to know what happens to Chris and Cassie, and to the country.”

“This book is truly amazing, the second I picked it up I couldn’t put it down. Just waiting in anticipation for the second one to come out!”
