When the sickness came, it was slow and unsuspecting, that is, until it started eating away at everything-literally.
Now, Emery and her brother Finlay are on the run from the infected world, trying not to become the monsters around them.
Along with Finlay's girlfriend, Sophia, and a few other survivors they pick up along the way, they battle the unliving and fight to stay alive. 
As sass and love compete with grief and fear, the group must face a harsh question: How do you survive when the world around you is dead?

(Rated mature for violence and strong language)
I feel like it's obvious, but in case it's not: this book contains people dying. It also contains some bloody and gross scenes.

Becoming Her Dark Side by CHURCHILLCYRIL
29 parts Ongoing Mature
They lied to me. My own family. My so-called friends. All of them hiding the truth, that we're tied to the criminal underworld, a forte where my family, the Storms, are the undisputed kings. Then everything falls apart. My dad gets framed. My cousin ends up dead. And the boy I've had a childhood crush on-Nathaniel-turns out to be the one who could destroy me. At least Luke, the one person I shouldn't want, fights to keep me from breaking... but even he has secrets. But it's gets even worse, because now an organization is rising from the shadows, an organization that opposes everything my family stands for. And in a family of warmongers and sociopaths, I stood out as a glaring weakness. The most normal, the most vulnerable, and the most efficient way to end a dynasty that has ruled for centuries. Because what is a throne without an heir, and a crown without its king. So here I am, stuck in a game of blood and betrayal where the only way to survive is to stop being the fragile girl they thought I was. If I have to burn bridges, spill blood, and embrace the monster inside me, then so be it. Because this time, I'm not running from my darkness. I'm becoming it.

Blood and Ashes: The Road to Lakeside by DrBoof
23 parts Complete Mature
*When storm season tears the Midwest open, a small lake compound becomes a lifeline-and a target. Bailey, Alex, Eryk, Bayleigh, Kyler, and Noah fight to hold their fragile home against the Toll Road raiders and the dead that won't stay down. A crackling radio hint points north to "Lakeside," where salvation-or another trap-might wait. As humor and love keep the group stitched together, the infected begin to move in unsettling ways, the weather turns feral, and every run for supplies feels like a dare. Hope is a map written in blood and ashes-and the only way out is through.* ### Meet the Survivors - **Bailey** - A cook with a quick wit and a hidden darkness. His jokes keep the group sane, but behind the humor, he hides scars that could split him open. - **Alex** - A former dancer turned medic. Fiercely protective and brave in ways she doesn't realize, her determination to find her mother drives her forward. - **Eryk** - The steady leader, disciplined and unyielding. His love for Bayleigh anchors him, but leadership forces him to carry burdens no one else can. - **Bayleigh** - Once shy, now the group's planner and scribe. Her artistic eye and nurse's training help her turn chaos into structure. - **Kyler** - Bailey's hot-headed brother, reckless but bold. Always quick with a grin or a shove, he risks everything to prove himself. - **Noah** - The opposite of Kyler: calm, tactical, and disciplined. He tries to be the voice of reason, but rivalry with his brother pushes him toward the edge.

(Sequel to Don't Talk To Strangers) It's been a couple months since the zombies had vanished. No more zombies. No more killings. And no more bad people. So they thought... Life is good, until something seems- out of place. Maybe it's a change in the weather or thickness of the air. Or it could be the electronic buzzing noise keeping them awake at night. The gang is suspicious, but nothing peaks their interests until one of them comes home infected. It's only a matter of time until the infection spreads around the rest of their body. It's a race against the clock to help them survive. Because the friends can't part with their own. They're family. And losing another person amongst the world is too much to handle. But if adding in revengeful ex-friends, hot summers, babies AND more zombies to the mix is what it takes to finally make these kids give up, congratulations. You got your wish. Not everyone is as strong as they want to be. Will they make it or break it?

"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.
