In a world gripped by a second Great Depression, where poverty and conflict have torn society apart, Ariella struggles to survive in the midst of a devastating pandemic that has unleashed the undead-crawlers-upon the earth. Haunted by betrayal and heartbreak, Ariella flees her shattered past and stumbles upon a group of survivors hiding in the wreckage of civilization. But trust is a scarce commodity, and the group's wary leader, Jonah finds that Ariella's presence stirs something in him-an unease, a flicker of vulnerability he'd rather keep buried. Desperate to prove her worth and carve out a place in their fragile community, Ariella must navigate a labyrinth of suspicion and old wounds. As she battles the monsters beyond the cave walls-and the ones within her own heart-she finds herself at a crossroads: will she surrender to the darkness of her past, or fight to forge a new identity in the ruins of the world? In this tale of survival, love, and overcoming fears, Ariella's journey will test the boundaries of loyalty, trust, and the true meaning of family in a world where hope is as scarce as a beating heart.

"Eternity means nothing to me if it means that I have to carry the guilt of destroying you." ----------------- Wylie Moore, a Reaper who clings to morality in the absence of life, has made a fatal choice. She's abandoned her oath, and neglected to collect a soul when its fated time came. When an unlikely ally joins her side-Finn Halstead, her silent sworn rival-a timeline is severed, and a soul spared. But the afterlife isn't what it seems, and their act of generosity is deemed a crime, pitting them against the commanding powers themselves for judgement. With a guilty verdict on their hands, it is decided that the two of them will be punished in the worst way possible for a Reaper: Resurrection. Thrust into the rural hometown Wylie grew up in, with her murderer still running free and her memory of her death severed, the two Reapers must navigate a twisting world of lies, ominous shadows with pointed teeth, a forced friendship, and their own growing feelings for one another. But Wylie's murderer remembers. They want her dead again-for good this time-and will stop at nothing to see it come to fruition, even if it costs the lives of others. A Reaper's greatest temptation is revenge. To succumb is to be destroyed. To Refuse is to suffer. Wylie will do anything to get back at her killer. Finn will do anything to atone for past mistakes. Even if it means destroying what he was sent to protect.

For someone who fought her way to leave the house that had never felt like home, Raiya Villarmente is back in her hometown. The very same place that reminds her what kind of family she belonged to, the one that its own name speaks power and influence in more ways than one. To other people, she appeared to have it all, beauty, riches, and the constant spotlight of attention. But beneath the surface, things were far more complicated. Claudia Quillano was kind-hearted, effortlessly talented, and carried herself with the ease of someone who saw the world as full of possibility. With one act of betrayal, the future she was meant to have vanished into thin air. That girl is gone now. In her place stood a woman who built her walls-tall, heavy, and impossible to climb. Not because she wants to shut the world out, but because it's the only way she knows how to feel safe. They were never meant to trust each other-let alone care. One is clawing her way out of a life that's kept her small and silent. The other hides behind walls she swore would never come down again. When their worlds collide, it's anything but smooth. But somewhere between the arguments and the uneasy silences, something unexpected begins to grow-an alliance, a bond, maybe even something more. Just as they start to believe they might be safe with each other, the past returns-louder, darker, and more dangerous than before. And it's not coming back quietly.
