Gilded Rose: A Forced Proximity Zombie Apocalypse Romance (Where Roses Rot Book 3)

Jilted at the altar. Saved by the apocalypse. Kind of.

Relief shouldn't be the first thing you feel when your fiancé jilts you at the altar. But for Dakota Levine, the end of her engagement based on blackmail is the start of her freedom.

Even if it comes with wedding guests starting to eat each other.

Now, both families are trapped together, and Dakota is at the mercy of her ex-fiancé’s devastating older brother.

Julien Mora.

He is cold, ex-military, and holding a decade-old grudge against her father. To a former soldier who lives by a hierarchy of survival, Dakota and her family are a liability he never wanted.

But as the dead begin to evolve and the masks of the old world slip, Dakota must learn that there's more to life than just being the "perfect daughter", and Julien discovers that there is one dangerous, undeniable exception to his rules.

Perfect for readers who crave grumpy protectors, forced proximity, intense cabin training montages, a praise-kink, and a heroine who trades her wedding dress for a weapon.

A fast-paced standalone with an HFN, dual POV, and a love story that proves the best vows are the ones you make to yourself. Please make sure to check the content warnings on the author's page, this one is heavier than the last.
