Fight or Flight by Jamie CanosaDate Released: March 12th 2013
Pages: 231 pages
Format: Kindle Edition
Summary:
Be smart.
Keep your head down.
And look out for number one.
These are the rules Jay has lived by for the past two years. The rules of surviving life on the streets. But when Em comes bursting into his life, in all of her disastrous glory, the rules go right out the window.
Survive.
Flee what’s been left behind
And never look back.
Em’s plan was simple. Though, it was easier said than done. The city streets are dangerous and unforgiving to a new arrival. Especially, a seventeen year old girl who’s never known anything but life in the suburbs. Sometimes, however, what’s lurking behind those white picket fences can be more frightening than any dark alley.
Both of them made the same decision when life got overwhelming—to run from their demons. Brought together by fate or circumstance, Em and Jay find the kind of love neither of them ever expected. But when those demons come back to haunt them and their love is on the line, which instincts will they choose to follow this time . . . Fight or Flight?

Hey Guys, today I'm really happy to have Jamie Canosa, author of Fight or Flight with a guest post about ZOMBIES!!!! (Which are zombies... as well as unicorns...) I'll shut up and let Jamie Canosa take it from here ;)
Guest Post
Here’s something you may not know about me. I love YA literature. In fact, I’m a little obsessed with it. Okay, maybe that wasn’t such a big surprise, but I bet you don’t know what else I love . . . Zombies! Uh huh, the flesh eating, mindless, walking corpses. Love em! I even wrote a novella, Our Own Worst Enemies, about the zombie apocalypse.
Like any good zombie fan, I’ve thought
extensively about who I would want on my zombie apocalypse team. I have some
very specific criteria and if you don’t fit it, sorry but you’re as good as
un-dead chow.
For today’s post, I thought I’d combine my
two loves and share with you my zombie apocalypse team made up entire of
characters from YA fiction. Here, in no particular order, are my head severing,
brain bashing, arrow slinging, bullet seeking team (with one witch thrown in
because, seriously, who doesn’t want a witch on their zombie team?).
1-Jace from Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare—With those runes that give
him strength, speed, agility, stamina, and coordination, plus all that hardware
(swords, daggers, not to mention seraph blades), I’m pretty sure the zombies
are going down.
2- Four from Divergent by Veronica Roth – The guys can shoot like a pro, and
when the bullets run out, he’s always got the knife throwing skill.
3- Aiden from the Covenant series by Jennifer Armentrout – I’d just like to see a
shuffling zombie try to take on Aiden and all of his crazy ninja moves.
4- Valek from the Study series by Maria V. Snyder – I’m pretty sure he could kill an
entire zombie herd before they even realize he’s there.
5- Kayla from Darkness Falls by Jessica Sorensen – The girl kicks some serious
vampire butt. Why not zombies?
6- Katniss from The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins – Bow and Arrow. Enough said.
(She’ll be my Daryl.)
7- Kale from Touch By Jus Accardo—Even if his touch doesn’t turn zombies into
dust in the wind, he’s still got all of those killer moves. Those things make
it past the bullets, arrows, and knives… I want Kale as my next line of
defense.
8- Deuce from Enclave by Ann Aguirre – Zombie slaying is kind of her thing. How
many people can say they were actually trained to kill zombies. I’ll take her
expertise thank you.
9- Hermione from Harry Potter by JK Rowling – Seriously, who wouldn’t want a witch
on their zombie team?
10- Lucas from Temptation by Jamie Canosa (Cue shameless plug here.)— But there’s
no one I’d rather be healed by.
Yeah, if these guys/girls were on my zombie
apocalypse team, I could just kick back and relax. Sorry zombies, this girl is
off the menu.
