Love and Decay by Rachel Higginson
Zombies- as if that wasn’t enough to ruin any girl’s dream of a happily ever after.
Reagan said goodbye to love when she was forced to run her high school boyfriend over with her mom’s car just to keep him from eating her for dinner. Now, two years later, and in need of a serious shower, she’s just over the entire concept of a soul mate- or really, any kind of mate.
Well, mostly anyway. When she runs- literally- into a group of boys holed up in a relative utopia of peanut butter and bottled water, maybe all hope in the love department is not lost.
But at the end of the world, nothing can be simple. And with a horde of Zombies after her, Reagan is going to have to schedule falling in love between hunting and surviving. Hopefully she can last long enough find out if true love can still exist when everything else has started to fall apart.
Love and Decay, Episode One, the first in a novella series in a Dystopian Romance about Zombies, the end of the world and finding someone to share it with.

Love words from Miller to Page
Page,
I tried not to love you for so long. I tried to save you from me. Protect you from what I know will only end in disaster. But I couldn’t do it. This love, our love, is stronger than me. Stronger than anything else in this godforsaken world. You’re everything to me, Page. The reason I get up in the morning, the reason I fight so damn hard, the reason I will never give up. Not as long as you’re here with me, not as long as your mine. Not as long as you let me be yours.
I love you, Page Parker. I always have. I always will.
Miller.

About the author
I was born and raised in Nebraska, but spent my college years traveling the world. I fell in love with Eastern Europe, Paris, Indian Food and the beautiful beaches of Sri Lanka. But I came back home to marry my high school sweetheart and now I spend my days raising our growing family. In those few spare moments I have, I am either reading or writing Young Adult Fiction, because I am obsessed with it.
