Veliciah
I want to lick every inch of his skin, from head to toe, and that round ass, holy cheese—I could serve an entire family dinner on that peach. Hayden Archer. My older CEO mate, and my new boss.

The man is married, he is a monster, a merman, and I should focus on my mission—earn enough money to buy a crew tough enough to kill the mermaid who murdered my entire family. I hate monsters, fear them more than anything, yet I can't stop thinking about Hayden the merman. I should stay away from him. But what if he kisses me first?

Apocalypse Fortress - Romance novels & stories
Tosinwrites
Executed on her mate's merciless orders in the freezing apocalypse, Aurora Bennett was shot in the snow so her Alpha mate could take another Luna. Instead of dying, she wakes up — ninety days BEFORE the Great Shadow Frost splits the sky. In her past life, she was a puppet. In this life, she breaks the sacred bond at her own mating ceremony, publicly rejects her killer Dominic Kingsley, and claims her forgotten birthright: the worthless northern badlands. The packs think she's crazy. They don't know the badlands hide a sealed Royal Vault — filled with gold, weapons, and an ancient power that answers only to her blood. While the Silverclaw Pack celebrates, Aurora builds the Iron Haven — an impenetrable fortress carved into black granite. Beside her stands Cassian Wolfe — a lethal rogue commander framed for treason, the only man who sees the woman behind the crown. When the acid rain falls, the void monsters rise, and the Frost finally hits, Dominic comes crawling back with an army to steal what is hers. This time, Aurora isn't running. She is hunting. And her ex-mate will beg for mercy in the same snow where he left her to die.

Crimson Love - Romance novels & stories
Lockhart
Thirty years after the apocalypse, the world belongs to darkness. When a failed climate weapon shattered Earth’s atmosphere, sunlight became lethal. Entire cities burned beneath toxic ultraviolet storms while humanity fled underground into fortress-cities powered by artificial UV towers. Above the surface, civilization rotted beneath snow, ash, and endless night. And the vampires emerged. Seraphine Ward (Sera) grew up hating them. A hunter from the human city of Zelios, Sera is sharp-tongued, reckless, and fueled almost entirely by anger after vampires destroyed her childhood settlement years ago. He isentirely too amused by the hunter who immediately tries to stab him through the throat. Unfortunately, it barely slows him down. Their first meeting should have ended in bloodshed. Instead, it begins an uneasy alliance neither of them wants. When Zelios’ UV towers begin failing, Sera is forced to travel through the deadly wastelands beyond civilization in search of an abandoned underground laboratory rumored to contain pre-apocalypse atmospheric research capable of restoring sunlight. Husen claims he knows where it is. And Husen, a monster feared even among immortals, becomes increasingly unstable around Sera. Because her blood is different. Not sweeter. Not rare. Before the apocalypse, Zelios scientists secretly experimented on unborn children using altered vampire blood in desperate attempts to engineer immunity against blood sickness and ultraviolet radiation. Sera was one of the few surviving subjects. Her blood isn’t natural. She was created. And Zelios knew. Once Zelios discovers what her blood can do, its leaders betray her immediately, planning to drain and replicate her blood to create biological weapons and controlled vampire armies. Husen responds exactly as expected. Violently. As war erupts between humans and vampires, Sera and Husen journey through ruined cities while their hatred slowly turns into obsession, intimacy, and dangerous love.

Phoenix_M_Raven
After a contaminated drug supply triggers a pandemic that collapses civilization, a young woman named Mercy finds herself stranded in the ruins of Doomcaster. Rescued by the Godless Brothers-a brutal, male-dominated survivor faction-she trades her freedom for survival. The Brothers' leader, Ash, agrees to protect her, but the price is steep: she becomes property, collared and branded. But after Ash is gravely injured and dies, the camp plunges into chaos. A new leader rises through bloodshed, announcing a return to the Brotherhood's roots: women exist to bear the next generation, and every brother has the right to claim one. Mercy endures relentless humiliation and violence as she struggles to find her place in the camp, organizing the sick tent and learning hard lessons from a scarred elder named Cinder. When she defies the new leader, Caleb, she is beaten and claimed as his personal possession. Mercy is forced to submit to the new king. Shaved, punished, and publicly used, she slowly adapts to her cage-learning to perform compliance so perfectly that she earns privileges and trust. But when men assault her in the sick tent and the new leader responds with brutal vengeance, Mercy realizes the camp's weaknesses. Pretending to be broken, she secretly plots her escape. One night, she drugs the guards, sets the tents ablaze, and flees with the captive women. The Brotherhood pursues them through the wasteland, and when they are caught, the council demands Mercy's death.

Dead Weight - Romance novels & stories
Dakota Quinn
She trusted him with the end of the world. He left her for dead in it. When the zombie apocalypse hits, Maya Rodriguez already knows who she's going to survive with — and who she's going to survive for. What she doesn't know is that her boyfriend has other plans. Ones that don't include her. Abandoned, alone, and furious in a world that has just ended, Maya finds herself with an unlikely companion: LUS, a rogue AI life coach who is equal parts infuriating and inexplicably useful, and who may know more about how the outbreak started than he's letting on. Surviving the apocalypse turns out to be the easy part. Because the world Maya's navigating isn't just full of the undead. It's full of engineered soldiers — wolves in human skin, built by the same government programme that unleashed the virus. It's full of men who want to protect her, want to use her, want to earn her, and want to be forgiven by her. And it's full of one specific slow burn she has categorically refused to name. She's not the woman she was before the world ended. She's considerably more dangerous. ***A post-apocalyptic romance about survival, betrayal, rogue AI, and the specific problem of falling in love when everything is already on fire.
