In a ravaged post apocalyptic America overrun by the undead, two survivors embark on a journey to find refuge. Lena is alone, exhausted, and near her breaking point after losing her family to the zombie horde. She has only one goal - to reach the fabeled New Hope settlement, rumored to be a safe haven located deep in the uncharted forests of the Pacific Northwest. Along the way, Lena crosses paths with Cole, a lone boy survivalist who keeps to himself. Though wary of each other at first, they soon realize they stand a better chance together. Under Cole's guidance, Lena hones her survival skills and begins to heal from her traumatic past. As they travel north through the decaying cities and rough terrain, Lena and Cole face relentless attacks from the infected. They also encounter human threats like hostile scavengers who will do anything to take their dwindling supplies. With the impending arrival of winter and little information about New Hope's existence, their resolve is tested at every turn. Just when all seems lost, they make a discovery that could be their salvation - or lead them into deeper peril. Through dynamic action scenes, twists, and moments of quiet introspection, Lena and Cole's bond transforms from uneasy partnership to deep trust. By the climactic finale, they have pushed past their limitations and will determine whether their fight for solace and perseverance is finally at an end.

When you are infected with the virus, there are four stages. 1) Your fever will shoot up and everything will become intensified on a maximum level. You'll lose grip on what's reality and what's illusion. 2) You'll start to slowly fall down the rabbit hole, forgetting the past and everything and everyone that you knew. 3) You face your imminent death. 4) You wake up with a pressing hunger for the living. It's been seven months since the pandemic hit with this virus and the world has been ravaged and left to ruins. Society has crumbled to nothing and more than three fourths of the population have been infected with the mysterious virus that took the world by storm. The virus has turned anyone infected into crazed flesh-eating freaks, with decrepit skin and red puffy eyes. The only way to kill them is by obliterating the brain. Elise Alice Gordon, Lease for short, led a simple life until the virus hit. Seven months later she is just barely scraping by. She's done what she's had to do to survive, and in that process she has created demons that haunt her every time she closes her eyes. See, it hasn't been easy trying to live in a dead world. She's lost friends, family, and everything she's ever known. The only thing she hasn't lost is her humanity and her hope. But she's afraid she's starting to. Because in this new world, there's only her, the dead, and the restless. © 2012 by Ashtyn Mane. All rights reserved.

[New Adult Apocalyptic Romance] Summary: Most of the population is dead, some have turned into vicious, crazed creatures who want nothing more than to eat you, and a small percentage are left to try to survive. Nothing is the way it was. With not much more than a pistol and a vague idea of what she's doing, Claire Harrington ventures out into this new, unforgiving world with only one real goal: to keep her younger sister safe. The odds are against her, until she runs into Parker and finds herself reluctantly accepting his offer to help. Trust is a fragile thing. Humanity is a construct. Love is 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.
