    Summary

    There were times when the world seemed to be a ghastly place with horrors lurking around every corner and yet, within the very same breath it could also be a beautiful phenomenon. Set nine years after the events that took place in Seattle, Joel found himself resonating more with the latter in recent times… More than content with what he had built for himself in the later part of his life; a home that was safe, a wife that he loved, a kid he adored and Ellie of course…

    Still, life was but a delicate concept. Something so fragile and easy to lose as a mortal sentient being. He’d learned to navigate and survive what he once deemed to be the end of the world with precision and expertise but what should happen when fate has him losing all control over the situation? When the powers above decide to try and rip the centre of his universe away from him? Can he save her or will he be forced to watch her fade away?

    Or

    Joel survives Abby’s brutal assault and continues living a life in Jackson with the family he’s created. His world is tipped upside down when his wife is diagnosed with a fatal illness that Jackson is not equipped to deal with. Can he save her?

    Summary

    We loved each other with fragments of ourselves that were dead - Nikita Gill

    Love. Such a poignant emotion. Such a terrifying feeling to give into. One that is stored right in the precious cavity of the heart. A sentiment that can turn the toughest of people plush but can forge such an aggressive desire to protect. A dangerous intensity, even more so when you’re left to find it in the obsolete remains of what was once planet Earth.

    Or

    Joel finds himself catching feelings for an existing resident of Jackson. Ones he just can’t seem to ignore but it’s not all plain sailing as they navigate through one another’s trauma.
