Five years into the apocalypse, humanity has lost all sense of compassion. Lara didn't die at the jaws of the zombies-yet she fell victim to the greed of those she once called comrades. When she opens her eyes again, she's six years in the past-before the world collapsed, before the people she loved perished because of her mistakes. This time, she swears: she will rise from the ashes, no longer the pawn, never the prey. She will do whatever it takes to protect herself... and the ones she truly cares about. But just when she starts reclaiming her life, a persistent senior-charming, irritating, and utterly shameless-shows up, begging to join her side, begging for protection, begging to be kept close. How will Lara handle him... without losing herself again?

His lips trail down my neck, sending shivers all over. "I love looking at you," he breathes, brushing the hair off my shoulders. "Will you let me?" My wild heart seeks his. "Yes." For a long moment, I just feel his gaze. Then, his hands. They skim down my spine as his lips find my throat. I lean back into his palms, my eyes closing. He kisses between my breasts, then across them, swirling his tongue and kissing, always kissing. He pulls my arms out to kiss them, all the way to my wrists...all the way back. He presses affection into my skin, injects trust into my veins. Then he eases me to my back and does it all over again. ******* An obscure tutoring opportunity brings Camila closer to three friends: Noah, Jed, and Fox.
