I'm a huge fan of the zombie genre but if I mention that to a fellow romance reader or author, mostly I'm told they aren't. Why? Most think if you're talking zombies that means either your hero or heroine is a zombie. Well, I've seen that storyline work actually. But for me, the zombie apocalypse provides a world where new types of bonds and relationships between surviving humans can grow.
And what if you had a family man who'd been in the military, who had access to certain classified files, who sort of knew it all was coming? His nephews all came to visit each year and he showed them survival skills, tried to get them ready for what he seemed to know would come eventually. This man is Uncle Larry. He lives on Dusty Mile and this series focuses on his nephews as they try to survive on their way to Uncle Larry -- and the lovers they meet on the way.
The first story came out earlier this year from Changeling Press.
DUSTY MILE: CHARMER
Changeling Press
In a world where humans are prey, new rules for sex and love are still evolving...
Caroline McGrath is thrilled to find another survivor of the zombie apocalypse -- until she realizes he's Robbie Huston, the only guy she ever had a one-night stand with.
Now they're depending on each other for their very survival, and the sparks fly. Still, she has to wonder if Robbie would want her if she wasn't just about the only woman left on Earth? After all, he walked away once.
When they find Tyler, another survivor, everything gets more complicated. Caroline discovers she likes being watched, but while Tyler has no problem indulging her voyeuristic fantasies, and even joining their sensual play, Caroline's now got twice as much to lose? Will she be able to hold on to both her men once they reach Robbie's uncle at Dusty Mile?

Coming in October! Dusty Mile Survival Guide: Fun in the Garden
The survival guide is a supplemental series to accompany my Dusty Mile series at Changeling Press. It's not necessary to read the Survival Guide series to get the main story. It's meant to be some extra fun with the characters. The Survival Guide series will all be "Hot Flashes" at Changeling (if they want them LOL). Cheap reads, lots of fun.
Now that they’ve safely made it to Dusty Mile Camp, their first priority in a world where they are prey is survival. Uncle Larry wants them to start a garden to re-establish a food supply. Caroline can kill a plant looking at it. Robbie decides that some plowing of a different kind might be just the thing to get this project started.
Coming soon! Dusty Mile 2: Soldier!
The sequel to Dusty Mile: Charmer. This is the story of Robbie's cousin Owen.
Owen finished his time in the Army and put aside the soldier to have an ordinary life. He had an ordinary job that he lost to the economy, an ordinary wife who left him for his best friend. And just before he could lose him home, the zombie apocalypse happened. Putting the soldier back on, he plans to blaze a trail to Uncle Larry's. Until one amazing woman crosses his path.
Dana has had anything but an ordinary life. Forced into prostitution as a teen, her heart aches for the baby she had to give up during those dark days. With the rejects of hell roaming the earth, and law and order no longer existent, no court can now stop her from finding her lost daughter -- or finding out what happened to her.
The resurrected soldier in Owen requires a woman who can match his skill and bravery. Dana needs a man who can let her shine -- and snap a bone when she needs him to. Will they find her daughter? Will they find Uncle Larry? Will they survive and find love in a world gone crazy?
Anyway, I hope you'll give Dusty Mile a read. It's a human tale of surviving in a harsh new reality - and remembering that love is the most precious thing of all.
