Quick question: What happens when a woman who's spent 400+ days talking to her telescope meets a guy who falls off her fire escape? (Spoiler: it's not boring.)
This isn't your typical "we met cute at the coffee shop" romance. It's more like "we met when you fell off my building and I had to stitch your head back together." The stakes are life and death, the banter is A+, and yes, there are definitely some very steamy moments.
Heads up: This book has stranger-to-lovers, morally complicated family members, some genuinely intense scenes, and a heroine who will absolutely gut someone if they threaten her man. Also, there may be tears. Happy ones, but still.
Bottom line? It's a fast-paced love story set in the zombie apocalypse, with extra glitter.
Ready to fall off some fire escapes?

Paris
Great. My first visitor in 406 days and it's a bleeding, bossy soldier who calls me 'princess' like it's an insult. Telly says I should throw him out. The telescope's usually right, but... those gray eyes. Ugh. Even half-dead, he's unfairly hot.

Knox
Everything about her is wrong. The pristine penthouse, the blue nail polish, the way she saved my life like it was nothing. In a world where soft means dead, Paris shouldn't exist. So why do I want to protect her more than I want to breathe?

Dive into Glitter Rose by GIGI VALE – A Spicy Zombie Apocalypse Romance
Paris talks to kitchen appliances, wears glitter, and hasn't spoken with another living person in over a year. Her invisibility to the walking dead makes her the perfect lone survivor.
Until Knox crashes into her world, bleeding and suspicious and everything Paris isn't: tactical, grounded, dangerous.
What starts as reluctant first aid becomes something neither expected in a world where trust is a luxury few can afford.
But being invisible to the dead makes her visible to the living. The wrong kind of living. When her past catches up, everything Paris and Knox have built crumbles under the weight of old sins.
