When Lainey Cruft set off to Montana from England to live on a ranch for eight weeks to complete a photo project, she did not expect what was to come. Neither did he.

Part two of The Only One Life moves in mysterious ways. Love does too. Many, many crossroads, each one leading to a different outcome. The great "what if?" "And if there was one thing that I gathered from the post-apocalyptic life, it was that you had to fight for what made you happy. Love, family, a roof over your head. There weren't many things left to boost that serotonin and give you joy. So what else was left to do? Fight for what really matters. Don't let it slip away. It wasn't only survival that was important. What do you survive for if you are miserable?" Lightning meets thunder. Thunder loves lightning. A storm is coming on the horizon, prickling at your skin, rumbling in the very marrow of your bones. This is the second book following The Only One, in which the story continues, with lots of twists and turns, lots of love, lots of heartbreak, and lots of obstacles in between. Warning: Contains mature themes such as sex, violence, and inappropriate language.

"If love manages to sprout from the soil that hatred has irrigated, then that means it must be true love." What are you capable of doing to protect the ones you love? What about the ones you hate? What makes you fall for someone who you just know you shouldn't be falling for? Is it their smile? Is it their heart? Their voice? Maybe the small mannerisms like how their brows furrow in concentration? And how long does it take for that said someone to sneak into your heart when you know you shouldn't have left the door open? Maybe you should just let yourself find out. What's the worst that can happen? -- Hello, my lovely cherries! This story starts a while after our favorite antagonist Negan crosses paths with Rick Grimes and his group. There have been some alterations in terms of storyline, timeline and events, so I wanted to give you a heads up before you dive in, because there may be some confusion. It's an angsty and rough slow burn and there is some smutty stuff (gotta give the people what they want, right?). Negan x OC. It's my first ever published story and there will definitely be a second part, but it's still in the making and I wanted to see how this one does. So, enjoy! Warning: Contains mature themes such as sex, violence and inappropriate language. There are some spoilers, so if you haven't seen the show until the very end, go watch it and come back here.
