After the End: A Dystopian Romance Collection Volumes 5-8

Summary:

BROOD by Claire Kent

For years, I’ve been waiting to turn twenty-one so I can marry, start breeding, and contribute to life in our bunker, but just before my spousal ceremony, the council makes a change. Instead of marrying the boy who’s always been my best friend, I’m expected to marry Will instead. Will is a stranger—gruff, intimidating, and fifteen years older than me. I’ll do my duty no matter what, but I really don’t want to marry and breed with him.

TAKEN by Elizabeth Stephens

There’s been a malfunction in my pod. Only my pod. Fanfreakingtastic. Instead of waking up thousands of years after the fall of civilization, I’ve woken up early – to a world filled with monsters. When one of them – the biggest one – decides to take me to his tent for the night, I have no choice but to go with him. The big guy and I can’t communicate. I can’t tell him that I need to return to fix the bunker, so I’m gonna have to try to escape. My odds look bleak, because he watches me with the possessiveness of a male who wants me for more than a night…maybe to keep.

TRADE by Cate C. Wells

When my husband replaces me with a younger model, I’m entered into the lottery and traded to an Outsider for fuel.

I expect a wasteland, but when the bunker doors open, I see green trees, blue skies, and him—a man half my age with a stone-cold face and a machete strapped to his thigh.

I’ll be lucky to escape him alive. That’s what we’ve been told all our lives.

And the people in charge wouldn’t lie to our faces about everything.

Would they?

PRIMA by Sherry Thomas
