The world ended, but she refused to die.
Anna Brooks has survived the apocalypse on her own terms-five months pregnant and armed with nothing but a crowbar and a stubborn will to live. She's outlasted the undead, outrun raiders, and carved out a fragile existence in a world gone to hell. But when a brutal warlord sets his sights on her, determined to claim her as his own, Anna knows she can't fight this battle alone.
Enter Cole Walker-a gruff, battle-hardened soldier with a past as dark as the ruins they navigate. He doesn't give a damn who the baby's father is. He only knows one thing: Anna and her child are his to protect.
As they build a sanctuary for survivors, fighting off the horrors lurking in the shadows, the line between necessity and desire blurs. Cole is possessive, deadly, and willing to kill anyone who threatens her. Anna isn't sure if she's more terrified of the monsters outside their barricades or the way her heart pounds every time Cole looks at her like she belongs to him.
When the warlord delivers an ultimatum-surrender the girl, or we burn it all down-Anna and Cole have no choice but to strike first. Blood will be spilled. Cities will fall. And when the dust settles, one truth remains:
She was never his to take.
She was always Cole's.
A gripping post-apocalyptic romance packed with brutal survival, fierce love, and the kind of devotion that can only be forged in fire. Perfect for fans of The Last of Us, enemies-to-lovers tension, and protective, touch-her-and-die heroes.
