The Second Collapse Series
After a mutated zombie fungus took out most of North America, the world found a cure and rebuilt. In order to never forget the horrors they endured, the Institute of the Undead was formed, steadfast in its mission to uphold living testaments of the Collapse. That was, until a horrible attack released the fungus once again. Follow three different couples thrown into life-threatening situations, who learn to trust one another and find that there is more to life than just survival.Keeper of the Undead
A bad day at work shouldn’t end in a zombie apocalypse… or hooking up with the hot new Security Chief.
But when you work at the Institute of the Undead and there’s an outbreak, well, things happen. Now I’m stuck in lockdown with a museum full of infected patrons trying to sink their teeth into me with only a former Navy SEAL—who thinks I may have caused the outbreak—and my wits for protection. My heart races when he demands I stay by his side, and even though I know better than to trust him, I’ll have to if I want to stay alive. I should be focused on surviving the next forty-eight hours until the military arrives. Instead, all I can think about is how I’d like to sink my teeth into him.
Survivor of the Undead
This big, scary-looking dude can’t be here for me… can he?
When I found out my sister was trapped in the Institute, I jumped on a plane and rushed home, determined to be the one to take care of her for once. Of course, that didn’t happen. Now I’m trying to escape from a zombie infested city that’s about to be razed, waiting for my sister to bail me out… again. So when my savior arrives in the form of a giant, grumpy former Navy SEAL, I can’t help but needle him, regardless of how gorgeous he is. His long-suffering sighs when I insist on eating gummy bears as we dodge zombie attacks make survival fun. I’m only teasing him to entertain myself, not because his smiles make my breath catch. Right?
Slayer of the Undead
Who could love the woman who ended the world?
I watched the city burn, knowing it was my fault. Now, I’m trying to take down the people responsible for the zombie scourge spreading across the Northwest — my family. But the gorgeous new bodyguard that my father insists watch me 24/7 is unknowingly stopping my plans at every turn. When I kiss him in a ploy to distract him from his duties, I’m the one left panting and wanting more. Though I know it would never work between us. How can anyone love me after what I’ve done?
Content Note: The Second Collapse Series is a dark and steamy read recommended for readers 18+ due to violence, language, and sexual situations.
