The third wave is looming, mere weeks away, but in the aftermath of a zombie apocalypse, problems never come just one at a time. Season 2 of The Virus Within * * * * * Life isn't easy, and that's doubly true when you're a zombie surrounded by humans, a crazy redhead, and a far-too-curious scientist. Once you add in a long-lost sister and a Terror who doesn't know how to zombie, peace and quiet are the last things you'll find. Reports of a Nightstalker attack come mere weeks before the third wave is due, and Trinity is one of the few who have the necessary skills to take on such a zombie. Leaving her sister in the safety of the Stronghold, Trinity joins the rest of the group as they embark on a road trip to locate the feral creature before it can kill anyone else. Trouble looms on the horizon like a thunderstorm, and where there's thunder, there's lightning. You better pack your dish soap because the third wave isn't waiting for anyone.

He was the worst thing that could've happened to her, and yet she was the best thing that could've happened to him. Olivia Rhodes has never been one to care much about someone's past, on who they were or what has made them become the person they are now. Her world is seemingly perfect: a humorous best friend, two loving parents, her baby sister-who cries a bit too much-and a bright future waiting for her once senior year is over. But her life would unwind into a world of secrecy when her neighbor suddenly moves out and someone else moves in. Hunter Black is the new guy in town, and everyone is talking about him. Handsome, charming, and mysterious, it almost seems like he acts as a beacon for attention-good and bad. Olivia wouldn't have cared about him in a normal situation, but it seems like the closer she gets to him, the more she finds herself lost in a world she didn't even think existed. There's something about Hunter that she wants to understand, uncover the complex web of lies that is building around him. And she's going to have a good reason for doing so when she finds out she's the only one who can see him in his true self. ---------------------- 𝐀𝐖𝐀𝐑𝐃𝐒: -Runner-up on the Spring Book Awards 2019 with a score of 98/100 -First place in the Paranormal Category on the April Blue Rose Awards ---------------------- 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐄𝐃: 07/23/2016 π…πˆππˆπ’π‡π„πƒ: 07/08/2019 CURRENTLY EDITING (LIKE, HEAVILY EDITING) ⚠️ πƒπˆπ’π‚π‹π€πˆπŒπ„π‘: Chapters ARE long since they all carry a good amount of content and have the actual length of a physical book chapter, so I do apologize if that's not what you like.

Four unmarked survivors. One totalitarian government. A fight to keep their humanity intact. 100 years into the future, the E-91 virus has thrust the world into chaos. For Rachel Wilson, survival hasn't come easy. For the last fifteen years, she's lived in the wilderness, just out of reach of the Council of Nations. Until one day, poachers--the section of law enforcement tasked with hunting the Unmarked--raid her home and she is forced to go on the run. Weary from the attack, but certainly not broken, she ventures into a dangerous world with only her fiery determination to survive. In what appears to be a stroke of good luck, she is rescued by an underground movement working towards bringing down the capital or die trying. Death over mark, that had always been the mantra. Because the alternative-becoming a mind-controlled soldier to fight the capital's war-was a fate worse than death. ***What other readers are saying about Marked*** "You've done a wonderful job of creating and molding this couple into real people.

(Book 1 in The Other Worlds Series) ***2016 FCRA's Wondrous Worlds Winner and a Wattpad Featured Story!*** ***A science fiction retelling of Beauty and the Beast*** As Paragon of her planet Terra, Odette understood what her duties included - intergalactic diplomacy, flight and defense training, and the knowledge and understanding of each alien race in the universe, friendly or otherwise. With the rogue tyrant leader of the planet Anur, Comae, threatening a path of destruction, she found herself on assignment to Earth, a planet she had a connection to in the past. Passing as a human girl, her mission was to get close the President of the United States...and she found a way when she met his son. Duke Mitchell was used to the cameras on him at all times, being the son of one of the most powerful men on Earth. With a new girl shaking up his world, he found himself falling head-first, especially with her fascination of random things, like sunsets through the autumn leaves and libraries filled with books. It wasn't until he learned her true identity that he, along with the rest of the world, realized they really weren't alone in the universe. When Earth fell into chaos, Odette and Duke were separated by both space and time - years passing for Duke, changing him into a scarred, beastly man, but only moments for Odette. When her ship was taken down by his forces in the ruins of New York City, Odette was captured and held captive, though friends from her time spent on Earth before made it more bearable. But with a final threat from Comae, promising complete annihilation, she must stand up and defend the planet and the human boy she grew to love...and somehow make Duke Mitchell stop thinking of her as the enemy.
