Amid the Embers by Lucid_Dreams29

Amid the Embers may look like your typical post-apocalyptic story. It's not. Yes, it starts with the Noxborne Virus. Yes, the world falls apart, fast. But this isn't about scavenging for canned beans or dodging zombies in alleyways. This is about what comes after, the slow, intimate rot of systems, memories, and mercy. It begins with Lily, a CNA in a Chicago hospital, witnessing the final moments of Patient Zero. From there, the story fractures into multiple points of view: survivors, manipulators, believers, and the broken children caught in between. A rising cult twists faith into control. Trauma rewrites love, loyalty, and identity. Each chapter ends with a bonus scene, hidden thoughts and memories, alternate angles, haunted echoes that refuse to stay buried. This trilogy blends psychological horror with emotional realism. Every laugh hides a wound. Every wound starts a story. Amid the Embers is not about saving the world. It's about surviving the memory of it and what it turns you into. ─────────────── **⚠️ Trigger Warning: ⚠️ ** This book contains graphic depictions of: -Child abuse (emotional, physical, and implied sexual exploitation) -Physical torture -Sexual assault -Mentions of child brides - Domestic violence and coercive control -Religious extremism and cult-like behavior -Graphic psychological horror -Substance abuse -Miscarriages -Homophobia and internalized shame -Death and grief -Mentions of suicidal ideation (non-graphic) -Gaslighting and manipulation Reader discretion is strongly advised. ─────────────────

ARC10 by LLMontez

[Book 1 of the ARC10 Trilogy] **Winner of the 2017 Watty Storysmith award** The President created an underground safe-haven for the survivors of the alien invasion. He built it to save them all from total annihilation. He protects them, feeds them, keeps them under his ever-watchful gaze so they can live. All he asks is that they obey. Captain Janika Lorn doesn't want to obey. Not if it means spreading her legs and contributing to the President's precious eugenics program. As a perfect candidate for the Human Hope Project, she is obligated by law to make more citizens for the dying society. But all she wants is her freedom to fight the Invaders and protect the people who already exist. If the mandated program wasn't bad enough, the worst part is trying to fulfill it with Captain Dean Freyer, her scientifically matched partner and best friend of sixteen years. Just as Captain Lorn is about to succumb to her fate, another opportunity arises. A mysterious commanding officer asks her to lead a human refugee ship--to save humanity by evacuating the destroyed Earth and shuttling the remaining population to a new habitable exoplanet 400 light years away. The mission is perilous. Especially because now, standing between her and her freedom is the hostile alien hosts of her ship, the ARC10, a sister returned from the dead, an array of impossibly confusing alien tech, a rekindled heat between her and Dean, and a sexy militia chief she can't seem to keep her hands off of. ARC10 is a romance-heavy sci-fi with the speculative horror of Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale and the military action of Battle: Los Angeles. Cover art by @FayLane Copyright © 2016 by LL Montez

The Journey The Only Survivors by MamaSunflower3

The worldwide disappearance of all living creatures, after the catastrophic storm, brings Kyara to the brink of despair as she and her siblings go on a miraculous journey through time. Everything changes the day of the storm. Time is lost. People are taken. And an unnatural silence settles over the land. Kyara and her three siblings seem to wake up to a normal life, but what is normal can never be normal again after that night's storm. Not when everyone in the world disappears, except Kyara and her three siblings, the only ones left in the sacred world. As they try to find out why everyone disappeared, they come across a time machine disguised in a cell phone. They travel first to the time when Jesus is born, in hope that they can find help from Him. But in each time after, they not only become vulnerable, but they also almost give up hope; for they lose the phone in every era they visit. While they journey through time, they learn about history, and how they can change it; they learn about faith, and how they can strengthen it; and they especially learn about love, and how they can protect it. The Journey The Only Survivors, by A.M. Parrish, is a captivating story that everyone, not only Christians, can learn what it is to live by faith and live with love. This is a published book out in several different stores. It is in Barnes N Noble, Amazon.com, and Apple books, etc. This is the first to a trilogy. The second one is also published and is called The Journey The Malevolent Curse. NOTE: Though this may seem like a Christian and faith book, it is actually not. This is a trilogy and the third, when it is published, will explain the entire story! So get excited!

A Different Virus - Laura's Story by CrystalScherer

This is a second view point from my original story - A Different Virus - Heartfire. I highly advise reading the original book first. Intro: Laura was a happy child without a care in the world. She loved her parents and life was perfect. Nothing seemed like it could go wrong. People started talking about a bad flu that was spreading and sending some into a coma. Her parents grew worried and stocked the house in case of a pandemic. Months later another virus appeared. Her family was shocked when the news people started reporting that zombies were actually real and not just part of a horror movie. They were appearing in every country. Her parents reassured her that none of the zombie sightings had been anywhere close to them. Her life is turned upside down when her father ends up in hospital with the bad flu and mother exiles her upstairs for her safety. She was never allowed downstairs again. Weeks pass and the streets become deserted with the exception of the red eyed zombies that wandered around. One night she notices a swiftly moving figure with glowing blue eyes in the street below. Should she call out or remain silent? Is this fleeting shadow something that can help her or could this mysterious figure be even more dangerous than the zombies themselves? ---------------------- Ranked #1 Apr 10, 2018 (A huge thank you to all who read and voted!)

Sentilia by ChristineParentBooks

Maxine is an 18-year-old girl who is bored and lonely, living in California in the year 2351. She's always been fascinated with how humans used to live in houses, drive cars, and the fact that there used to be forests and parks everywhere. Now, after a war that nearly erased humanity, people are forced to live a strict, dull, communist lifestyle. Everyone seems okay with this way of life. Everyone except Maxine. Maxine had always been special; she was often able to predict events. How? She didn't exactly know...yet. When she starts having dreams about a tropical island where people live as they did in the 21st century, she meets the man of her dreams: literally. Her new boiling emotions bring her to wonder...what if it's a real place? When she starts her search for the island and bumps into Elis-the man in her dreams-she suddenly knows it wasn't all just a making of her imagination. Finding that island could mean finding the answers to her burning questions, and maybe even answers to questions she didn't know she had. However, not everything is what she thought it would be when she finally finds the island, and her dreams become a harsh reality. Elis turns out to be someone else, and when another man swoops in every time Maxine is in danger, she becomes confused about what love really is. The Advisors, the ten women governing the world, want to assimilate the people of the island, not knowing that those people have an extreme advantage over them. Maxine also learns that her family has been lying to her about who she really is. Ultimately, when the Advisors come to destroy the island, she must face the fact that she is the key to the island's salvation, and embracing her rapidly developing abilities is the only way to do so.

He believes in the small town they have populated and its mission to save humanity from extinction. He and his small team of men find scattered people and bring them in.

Her time of solitude is up. Leah sparks something in James he's never felt before. He's not letting this one get away, certainly not twice.
