The hospital hasn't fallen at the greedy hands of the dead, but to the afflictions of the living. Elise Alice Gordon is gone, leaving Lease, a girl who has fought tooth and nail to find her inner strength. Now, as the group travels down the road to find a so-called sanctuary, they will face new horrors, challenges, and devastating losses that will bring some to the brink of not only their sanity, but their humanity. Lease has dealt with her demons, but with the new dawn rising and the snappers continually mutating, she'll realize that the monsters might not only be the dead, and there might be a new monster forming inside her. She's fought for her inner-strength, and now she'll have to strive to hold onto her humanity and sanity, or risk losing it all, especially now more than ever.
Because they aren't on the road of the living, but going down the way of the dead.

The Road Between Us
In a world fractured by chaos and loss, Percy Jackson has always been a loner. After the death of his mother and the collapse of the only family he knew, he sets out for Jackson, a place whispered about as a sanctuary-a community he's never had. On the road, he encounters Dina, a fiercely independent woman running from the horrors of a broken New Mexico QZ and the civil war tearing it apart. Forced into an uneasy alliance, they trek through the wasteland, surviving by instinct and slowly discovering that the road to Jackson might be the least of the dangers they'll face. Trust is hard to earn in a world full of monsters, but as the days pass, something begins to stir between them-something neither of them expected. Will they find refuge in Jackson, or will the world's cruelty tear them apart before they ever get there?Complete
THE RISKS
"You can't tell me there isn't something here worth risking everything for." [New Adult Apocalyptic Romance] Summary: There are some things that you can't outrun. That becomes all the more obvious when the world is ending, when there's nothing left but the feral creatures that were once people, consumed now by a virus that's made them cannibalistic and ravenous. It might just be easier to end it all, but Claire still has one last thing to fight for. Her younger sister. And she intends to keep her safe, no matter the cost. So, with no other options and her sister in tow, Claire ventures out into the dangers of this new, unforgiving world in search of safety, security, and answers to some long burning questions. The first two things -along with some new, unexpected questions- she finds in an unlikely place: a stranger who she's become indebted to. She has a feeling he can help her answer all her questions, if she can allow herself to fully trust him. Trust, she thinks, is a fragile thing. Humanity, a construct. Love, a weakness. But these are the thoughts of a survivor, and she's beginning to wonder if surviving is all she wants. Maybe she wants to live.
