Just when Dani starts to believe that her life could be somewhat normal, an agent of darkness literally comes knocking at her door...and he is searching for her mysterious house guest, Jared. The agent could be dispatched easily but once the sun sets, the creatures he works for will be out for blood. After sending the agent away, Dani and Jared are now in a race against the clock to find a safe place to hide where they can re-group and plan. Their lack of options forces Jared to reach out to an ex-friend of questionable character...who just so happens to owe him a life debt. The biggest problem with that is...this ex-friend is not human. ********** Dani is a quiet woman who tries to keep people and emotions at arm's length. While her world unravels, her eyes and soul open to a world where monsters prowl the dark of night and powerful warriors struggle to keep the peace between the ordinary and what she always believed to be simple fantasy.

After her car breaks down on a lonely, forestry road, Amber finds herself stranded nearly one-hundred miles from home in the wake of a suspected coronal mass ejection. With nothing but her hikers pack, antique film camera, and a gift shop journal to record the bizarre goings on, she is going to attempt to make it home on foot. But something ancient and sinister has awoken to stalk the shadows, effectively trapping her in a remote, mountain convenience store, and it is poised to upend civilization forever. Even as Amber struggles to scrape together a life on her own, her family and friends are also fighting to survive the dark plague that is sweeping across the land. Will they survive The Fall? *** This story is a full length (around 150k words), atmospheric novel that is overflowing with slow, creeping dread and high stakes tension. It walks between (and through) several genres but I would call it: Post Apocalyptic Survival Horror with Dark fantasy and Romantic Suspense elements. There is no actual graphic smut on the page but it does walk the edge. Because of the darker themes, please see the content warnings in the Author's Note section before reading. Your mental health matters. ❤️ I hope you enjoy!

10 years ago In post-apocalyptic New Orleans, I found myself amid the decay and death. A year since the outbreak, my family turned into monsters. I lost everything that day, surviving by a blur of instinct. With my son Timbo and our dog Lavender, we hunt for infected brains, seeking a cure. I'm Jeremy Gilmerton, surviving cleanup duty with Timothy, while reminiscing about the trio - Raymond, Tyler-Ray, and Naru - who changed my life. Their survival secrets remain a mystery, leaving me to wonder. Mc - Jeremy Gilmerton (prologue) Mc- Tyler-Ray (permanent after prologue) this is a LGBT+ appocolyptic story with monsters and fantasy to boot! My name is Suraya Richards! And I want to become a writer and a artist when I'm older (I'm 15) and I hope to one day make this story a book in the future!
