Alex Blake was built for the spotlight. Loud, reckless, TikTok-famous-he lived through filters, captions, and half-truths. Then the world collapsed. And now the only person who still knows how to make him laugh is Rocky-his best friend, his ride-or-die, the one who's always been just like him... except a little older, a little wiser, and a lot more honest about who he is.
As they navigate the ruins of a dead world-dodging zombies, looters, and the weight of everything they've lost-Alex clings to humor and distraction. But Rocky sees through it. He always has. Because underneath the chaos, Rocky's been carrying something heavier than survival: a love he's never spoken, and a truth he's terrified will destroy what little they have left.
But the apocalypse has a way of tearing away what you hide. And as the silence grows louder, and the nights stretch colder, Alex is forced to face a question more terrifying than death:
What if he's been afraid of the wrong thing all along?
Set in the same universe as the upcoming zombie series Epochalypse, Live with Alex Blake is a slow-burn psychological thriller about identity, denial, and love at the end of the world. Raw, real, and achingly intimate, it explores what happens when the person you've always loved is the one thing you've always run from-even when they've never stopped standing beside you.
