The world ended quietly for Odessa Blake-one heartbeat at a time.
Now, she walks the line between who she was and who she needs to be to survive.
Armed with her bow, the memories of a life before, and a heart that still dares to care, Odessa navigates a shattered world filled with broken people, buried truths, and the constant threat of what's out there-and what's within.
But survival has its cost. Secrets haunt her, enemies target her, and every day is a battle between who she was and who she must become.
Odessa Blake isn't just surviving the end of the world. She's rewriting who she is in the ashes of it.

Wicked Little Words
They promised it was just fun. No strings. No feelings. So why does it feel like everything? At twenty-two, Sloane doesn't have room in her life for heartbreak. Between nursing school, long CNA shifts, and raising her daughter, she barely has time to breathe-let alone fall for someone. So when Braden, a friends boyfriends cocky, charming best friend, makes it clear he's only in it for fun, Sloane agrees. It's safe. Easy. Exactly what she needs. Until it isn't. Because somewhere between the stolen looks, mind-blowing sex and late-night banter, Sloane starts to want more. And without realizing it, so does Braden. But Braden has ghosts that won't stay buried. And when the girl he once claimed to love whispers a lie that cuts too deep, he doesn't just believe it-he uses it to break Sloane in the cruelest way. By the time the truth comes out, Sloane's heart is in ruins, and Braden's the one left bleeding. He never meant to fall for her. He never meant to lose her, either. Now he's ready to fight for the only woman he's ever really loved. But some promises can't be undone. And Sloane might be the one thing Braden can't win back.Complete

LEAKING HEART: When Love Hurts Too Quietly
LEAKING HEART Some hearts don't break with thunder. They leak - quietly, painfully, one heartbeat at a time. Emma wasn't asking for much - just a little love, a little peace, a little room to breathe. Instead, life handed her wounds wrapped in promises, heartbreak disguised as care, and silence where comfort should have been. Used. Abandoned. Pregnant while still figuring out who she was. Now, she stands - not because she's healed, but because she has no choice. Every day is a tightrope walk between holding it all together and falling apart. She's a mother. She's a fighter. But even warriors get tired. Her story isn't a fairy tale. It's raw. It's messy. It's real. > 🩸 Because sometimes, the strongest people are those still bleeding... and walking anyway. 🌒 And maybe - just maybe - light does find those who no longer look for it. A journey through betrayal, motherhood, healing, and hidden strength - LEAKING HEART will break you, lift you, and remind you why we keep fighting.
Ashes Between Us
In a world where survival is everything, love is the most dangerous risk of all. She was a fighter long before the world ended-but grief changed her. Hardened her. Now, behind the safety of the prison walls, she's barely holding together the pieces of who she used to be. Until Rick Grimes sees through the cracks. He's a leader burdened by loss, desperate to keep everyone alive-especially her. What starts as stolen glances and shared scars soon ignites into something neither of them expected. But in a place where trust is currency and secrets can be deadly, their growing connection becomes a dangerous game. No one can know. Not with threats closing in from every side. Not when the group is already struggling to survive. And especially not when a new enemy is watching from the shadows... waiting to strike. With walkers at their backs and spies beyond the fence, Rick and [Your Name] must decide: is love worth the risk-or will it be the reason everything falls apart? Enemies are coming. The truth is closing in. And the line between love and war has never been thinner. Here is a pinterest board for this story: https://pin.it/5aaZGPObN
