[Teen and New Adult Zombie Apocalypse Romance] "If you would've told me the last day of our peaceful existence would be a boring Tuesday in November, I would've called you an idiot." High school senior, Casey Whitmore, is about to discover her life isn't all about graduating with honors, taking her team to the championship, or being the perfect daughter. When Casey's mother comes down with the scariest illness imaginable, she is forced to take action, but no matter which way she turns the normal solutions are unavailable. As she searches for medical treatment, Casey crosses paths with two friends who agree to help. Derek is the broody, mysterious type while Thomas is the smooth wild card. The guys couldn't be more different, but are attractive and seductive in their own way. It's not until all communication is cut off that they realize the spreading illness is no accident, and the world becomes lost in a horrific whirlwind when the dead start attacking the living.

Even though Thomas and Derek prove to be invaluable during the fallout, love is still very much alive, and emotions run wild even during the zombie apocalypse.

[UNEDITED AND TO BE REMOVED DECEMBER 31st, 2025] *** After moving to Connecticut to room with her best friend for the summer, Chastity Blake doesn't know what to think of the charm bracelet she finds, caught under the floorboards in her new bedroom; with the initials D.K. engraved into it. But ignoring the bracelet's origins isn't an option when she begins to live out strange scenarios as a young woman named Delilah. And when these scenarios start cutting too close to reality, she can't help but suspect they're memories. She quickly realizes though they're not her memories. They're Delilah Kim's memories -- a girl who was believed to have committed her family's murder, then suicide. But her memories tell a different story other than what everyone else in town seems to know. And it's up to Chastity to place the missing pieces of the puzzle together.

A perfect town is hiding ugly secrets. One dead body. One missing person. And a killer who is only just getting started... Blaire Olsen is the girl everybody wants to be. With her long and shiny beach-blonde hair, mesmerising blue eyes, and a to-die-for figure, she is the natural star of Berewood High. She was untouchable, a golden bullet soaring through our school and striking down anyone who stood in her way. Everybody either wanted to be her, know her, or kill her. But then someone actually did. And now, nobody wants to be her. I don't know why she went into the woods that night - all I know is that one second, she was there, alive and breathing, and the next she was not. The coroner's office say it was an accident, that she was drunk and fell over on some branch, knocking her head too hard on the way down. It was an accident. It was an accident. It was an accident. But, I've found her diary. It wasn't an accident. ******* Cover by Ellie Sita

"Do you like him?" It was the question I'd been expecting, but at the same time it wasn't. Hearing it directly from his lips almost made me doubt my hearing. Up until this moment, neither of us had really done or said anything to confirm that something was up between us. This question, however, left little to doubt. He wanted to know if I had someone else on my mind. He was jealous. That realization makes all the blood in my body rush to my cheeks. "I don't," I manage to respond with only a slight stutter, as I pretend I wasn't completely freaking out on the inside. "He's like family to me." I watch as his face relaxes and he releases a long, steady breath. As if he'd been holding it this entire time. Then the faintest hint of a smile finds its way to his lips. "Good." *** After losing her best friend to an overdose, Anna Bray vows to never get involved in the world of substances again. But then she meets Noah. Dark and handsome but struggling with an addiction of his own, Anna finds herself pushing her own boundaries for the sake of love. What started as any other relationship soon turns into a complex turmoil of broken trust and endless questions, leaving her with a devastating choice: to protect herself, or to fight for the person she loves.
