Description
When the world's fate hinges on a woman's heart, the battle lines between heaven and hell are drawn.
In the crux of a war-ravaged frontier, Maddie's fate intertwines with that of a mysterious soldier, and she is thrown into a labyrinth of desire and deceit. Forced from her solitary cabin, she plunges into the lawless expanse of the wild, wild West—where her mettle will be tested in this untamed crucible.
Maddie, a harbinger of defiance sculpted by the whimsical hands of destiny, embarks on a treacherous odyssey as she evades insatiable hordes of undead that trail her. Each reticent stride brings her nearer to a crossroads shrouded in secrecy, where horrifying revelations poised to either fortify or fracture her fragile grasp on existence skulk in the shadows.
As the relentless waves of the undead surge forward, Maddie's plight becomes a battle, one not of the flesh but of the spirit against encroaching evil; a righteous campaign, echoing across the blighted frontier, has found its heart in Maddie’s valorous voyage. Will she find the strength to confront these terrors and unravel the mysteries that threaten her existence, or will she succumb to the insidious forces that conspire against her? As she stands on the precipice of existence, will she find the courage to confront her terrors, or will she be consumed by the darkness that threatens to swallow her whole?

"When I saw the description being western, horror, romance... zombies?! I was skeptically excited! I wasn't sure how it was going to all come together, but within a few short episodes, I was hooked!! The story started slow for maybe half an episode, and then bam! I whirlwind of emotions, excitement, and explosive (literally) energy, and I couldn't put it down until it told me I had to wait! I'm very excited to see where this story leads our two main characters! I have no doubts this story will not leave us disappointed!! Hope you enjoy it as much as myself!!
Bonus... Female lead is strong & sassy and they fully made sure to include her adorable Midwestern accent!! Male lead is already giving that protective, gentleman vibe I'm swooning!"

Did I know I needed a zombie horror romance in my life? No.
Can I imagine my life without it now? Absolutely not, I need this like I need air.
Bell writes descriptive scenes that paint a picture of grotesque horror, and others that truly make you think of the circle of life. There are scenes that have you going "damn, that FMC be sassy, I like her" - and scenes with a gentlemanly MMC who you just want to get to know. A touch of gore, a touch of FMC self discovery and romance, add in a dash of loss and you've got the mixture for an absolutely killer story that I devoured episode by episode.
The way Bell uses words is beautiful, lyrical, and easy to obsess over. Can't wait to see what she does next.
5 stars, if I could give more, I would.
Wendy J, Reviewer
I could have easily read a 100 pages more. I wish the story was a bit longer because I found it really difficult to connect with the characters.
I still give it 4 stars, because the way this story was written, so beautiful and lyrical, I did feel like I was in that world myself.
The way the author uses words is so otherworldly and I can’t wait to see what comes next.
Emma G, Bookseller
The prose are lyrical and the story grips you from the off. I loved this short story although I found myself getting really invested and then feeling a bit let down when the end of the chapter would come up.
I cannot wait to see what this author does next and I really hope it is a full length novel as this was brilliant I just desperately wanted the characters to be more fleshed out and the story to continue after that final sentence.
