Summary
Lennon Wilde is a vet tech in Atlanta when the world falls apart. Days later, she's in the woods with a dog and a knife, and Daryl Dixon is the one who finds her.
Daryl Dixon doesn't waste words. Doesn't explain himself. Doesn't do people. But survival throws them together, and some walls come down brick by brick, whether you meant to drop them or not.
The dead are walking. The living are dying. And somewhere between the quarry and the highway and every desperate mile after, staying alive starts looking different than either of them expected.

Summary
Margot Shaw has one rule: don't fuck the married gym teacher, no matter how good the idea sounds at two in the morning when her husband's in the guest room and she's wondering where it all went wrong.
Negan makes it hard to keep that rule. He's got the grin, the shoulders, and the kind of confidence that says he's already decided how this story ends. He's married. She's married. Both marriages are dying in different ways. The line holds anyway.
Until cancer changes everything. Until the outbreak separates them. Until months pass with no way of knowing who survived. Until Lucille dies and Negan becomes something his wife never had to witness.
When their paths cross again, the man she wanted and the man who survived aren't the same person. And every rule that kept them apart burned down with the rest of the world.
(Pre-outbreak temptation. Tragic devotion. And something darker when the dead walk and the past catches up.)

Christmas 1986. Fourteen-year-old Grace makes paper chains, cooks dinner nobody eats. Her mother laughs too loud. Wayne makes jokes that aren't jokes.
Grace is learning what it means when telling the truth changes nothing.Christmas 1989. Six-year-old Lennon makes two wish lists—one Gran approves, and one that tells the truth. When Gran finds the real one, Lennon learns that some questions have consequences.
But her Pops knows about secrets too, and sometimes the best gifts are the ones you have to hide.Series

Summary
In August 2010, the CDC contained the outbreak. The world didn't end. Life went back to normal.
But on a rural highway outside Atlanta, a stranded woman and a man on a motorcycle cross paths anyway.
What if they met without the urgency of survival? What if they had time? What if fate worked differently when the world wasn't ending?
Daryl Dixon and Lennon Wilde—different circumstances, same pull.

Summary
Lizzie Scott never intended to get involved. She was supposed to treat the injured, keep her head down, and pretend the past didn’t scrape at her ribs every night she couldn’t sleep.
Negan yielded to Rick after losing everything that ever gave him power. What’s left of him waits behind locked doors, stripped down to time and attention.
One unlocked door becomes a mistake that doesn’t stay small. Care lingers. Recognition settles. Boundaries thin.
Somewhere between restraint and mercy, Lizzie ends up where nobody looks for her.

LOVE THIS.
Interesting character study of Negan and the OFC Lizzie feels like a real person. The Chemistry between them is 💥

Summary
Shane Walsh and Maisie Bright hated each other — until they didn’t anymore.
Giving in to their feelings was easy. Desperately trying to hide the growing relationship between a small-town sheriff’s deputy and his favorite librarian is much harder.

Cute Shane/ofc. Pre outbreak. Short enough to have re-readability and well written. Shane and Rick are in character for PRE outbreak.

Summary
“Catfish?”
“I’m sorry?”
“Did you get catfished?”
Nope, he definitely heard her right. “I don’t know what that means.”
“When your online date pretends to be someone they’re not.”
“Yeah. Wait there’s a name for that?”
“Yeah, it’s a thing. There’s a TV show. And a documentary.”-
Bucky promises Sam he'll try to get out and meet more people. Online dating goes about as well as you'd expect.
