What Lasts in Us
**COMPLETED** Several years after the world succumbed to a deadly strain of measles that turned those infected into crazed, mindless cannibals, Charlotte wanders the backroads alone, content with surviving day-to-day. That is until she crosses paths with Nate and his daughter, Emmi. Emmi is not and cannot be vaccinated against the disease, so the only way to protect her and give her some kind of life is to reunite her with her estranged mother in a quarantine zone on the other side of the country. Charlotte wants nothing to do with Nate or the girl who looks like her dead sister. She does not want to go through the grief of losing people again if something bad was to happen. And something bad does happen when Emmi is kidnapped, and it is no one's fault but Charlotte's. Through this obligation alone, Charlotte feels like it is her responsibility to get Emmi back, to right her wrong. In helping Nate pursue his kidnapped daughter, Charlotte inadvertently allows herself to feel again, to care for those other than herself. But with the clock ticking, Charlotte's new found family may just end up like her own, dead and destroyed, if Emmi is exposed to the disease that her father tried so hard to protect her from.Complete
Dead Earth (old version)
The dead have invaded Earth, the social grid has been destroyed. Anarchy runs hand in hand with chaos and destruction. Thorne's town has been overrun, and she has been forced to go on a road trip that may never end. Along with her best friend, and other accumulated survivors their path has crossed with, they take a journey across the country to get away from the terror of the dead -- and the living. Warning: this is the old version (which you hopefully realized by the title). The new version is very much different, much more thought out and outlined. It hasn't been posted yet (still needs to be written and then lots of revising). I'd say enjoy this version while it's still posted... but honestly, it's rather rocky as I sort of jumped into the book without a plan, clear plot, or anything. If you'd like to know what's going to be new skip to the last part in the book labeled New Version Sneak peek.Complete

THE WAY WE SURVIVE
In an apocalyptic world of the near future, a virus intended to be used as biological warfare in the Middle East has escaped into the general population and has destroyed 75% of the Earth's citizens. Those left are of three veins: struggling to survive in hiding, attempting to restore world order, or lowered to their very base instincts of rage and violence. Keller and Shelby, the only survivors of their small New York town, have created a solitary life together in the Catskill Mountains. They live in worry of discovery as mobs of raiders move through the state. Two years after the virus release, they have found comfort in one another, and even love. When marauders invade their property and kidnap Shelby, leaving Keller for dead, she discovers there's more to the left behind than those that have devolved into their inner animal. At a camp run by the mysterious Isaac, she is met with the challenge of accepting that things aren't exactly as she'd assumed. That evil is counterbalanced with good. That survival of the human species is worth fighting for. And so is love.Complete
