hi everyone! thank you so much for giving my book a chance, it means a lot.
i just wanted to start by saying that this book is hefty. if any of the warnings listed above make you uncomfortable, i'd advise you not to read! it would save me from an influx of comments and messages telling me i didn't give any trigger warnings lol... however, some chapters will have a trigger warning in the beginning!
just an FYI, elliot is 18 years old when she meets ashton, who is 23. not too bad of an age gap, but i still understand it makes people uncomfortable!
this book was inspired by the walking dead. i've been obsessed with that show for forever now and i just couldn't imagine a better plot than two people falling in love during a zombie apocalypse;)
i appreciate you giving my book a chance, as this is the first book i'm publishing and it's making me nervous lmao... but i hope you enjoy it!
