Ethan Grimes, a sharp-shooting force with a devil's charm and a trigger finger that doesn't flinch, carries the weight of a name that demands strength in a world gone to hell. Lila, the Greene family's fierce healer, stitches wounds and souls with hands as steady as her heart is wild, her compassion a blade that cuts both ways. In the brutal sprawl of The Walking Dead, where the dead hunger and the living break, their connection sparks a fire that could warm them or burn everything down. Bound by desire and tested by blood, they navigate a landscape of gnashing teeth and fractured trust, where every choice is a gamble and love is as dangerous as the next step. Blood and Ember is a gut-punch dive into passion, violence, and the raw edges of humanity, where survival demands everything you've got-and more.
