The end of the world didn't take Georgia Walsh by surprise.
She'd already been fighting to keep her brother's temper in check, raising his daughter as her own, and carrying secrets too heavy for someone her age. She thought she had time, time to figure out who she was outside of being Shane's sister, Rick's friend, Maddie's aunt.
But time ran out.
Now survival is measured in stolen breaths, bloodied hands, and the people you choose to fight for. And as the dead rise and the living turn on each other, Georgia learns that sometimes family is born in fire, and love is the most dangerous risk of all.

TIL THE DEAD DO US PART || A SHANE WALSH DARK ROMANCE
"Her story didn't end with the dead. It began with them." Before the dead began to rise, Mara Holt was already living her own kind of hell. Trapped in a loveless, abusive marriage and haunted by the memory of her first love. But when the world collapses, Shane finds her again; bruised, broken, and still the only woman who's ever made him lose control. Saving her becomes his obsession. Loving her becomes his downfall. As the lines between right and wrong blur, Mara's loyalty to her brother is tested by the pull of a man who refuses to let her go, even when the world is burning. Their connection is raw, reckless, and impossible to hide, especially when survival means making choices that no longer feel human. But in a world where love can get you killed, Mara and Shane discover something far more dangerous than the dead: what happens when you find something worth killing for.

A 10 year old girl, sharing the world with the dead. Everybody becomes family at some point. "Blood isn't what makes us family. It's because you'd risk yours to save me if I needed it, and I'd do the same for you. We didn't know each other before this, heck you didn't even like me at first. But now... you'd kill to protect me, and when I'm scared, you're the one I run to. You're my family because you stayed and my parents, my actual blood... they just gave me up." "Ya sound like ya Pop." "I know." TW: death. gore. murder. deep trauma. drug use. alcohol use. sexual assault. mentions of needles. abandonment.

Daughter of the Dead
Callie Walsh was never meant to be part of the end of the world. The daughter of Shane Walsh and the result of a one-night stand, she lived her life split between two homes-caught between her father's chaotic presence and the stability of the Grimes family. Born just three months apart from Carl Grimes, Callie grew up alongside him like a sibling. But when the world fell apart, she was with her mother... and Shane didn't look back long enough to find her. Locked inside her home with her mother Stephanie, Callie waited as the dead took over the streets. When their food ran out, Stephanie left to search for supplies-and never came back. Alone, starving, and terrified, nine-year-old Callie made the only choice she could: find her way to the Grimes' house two streets over. But Lori and Carl were already gone. Broken and alone, Callie thought all hope was lost-until Rick Grimes stumbled through the door, barely alive but determined to protect her. Together, they set out to survive the impossible. Yet in a world where nothing is simple and no one is safe, Callie must learn that family isn't always who you're born to... and survival comes at a price.Complete
