Synopsis
I was in college when the asteroid hit, and all my dreams and ambitions went up in smoke along with more than half the planet. Now I'm left eking out a treacherous existence in the lonely, violent world that remains. Everyone who loved me is gone, and I'm stuck depending on Zed, my former stepdad's younger brother. I never liked him, but he and his four-year-old daughter are the only people I have left.
The small world we've built for ourselves in the past five years is crumbling at the edges. Our food is running out. So soon we'll have to leave our home and travel a dangerous road in search of safety that might not exist anymore. To make it worse, I'm hit with new feelings for Zed and start wanting things from him that I can never have.
I know better than to put my hope in romantic daydreams. This has become a world without heroes, and the happiest ending is just to survive.
Note: Hero is a short, steamy post-apocalyptic romance. This title was originally intended to be Mack and Anna's book, but their story has been postponed until later in the series. Hero features a different couple.

My Review
'🅷🅴🆁🅾'
Is a short. post-apocalyptic romance novel by author 'Claire Kent' In this you meet Zed, Esther and Rina (Zed's wee daughter).
“𝗜𝗳 𝘀𝗵𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱𝘀 𝘀𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴, 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗹𝗲𝘁 𝗺𝗲 𝗱𝗶𝗲.
𝗜 𝘁𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮 𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗮𝗴𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻'𝘁 𝗯𝗲 𝗺𝘆 𝖍𝖊𝖗𝖔. 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗯𝗿𝘂𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗻𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗼𝘄 𝗶𝘁.
𝗦𝗼 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂'𝗹𝗹 𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗵𝗲𝗿. 𝗜𝗳 𝗶𝘁'𝘀 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗺𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗵𝗲𝗿, 𝘆𝗼𝘂'𝗹𝗹 𝗮𝗹𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗵𝗲𝗿.”
Zed, is Esther's step-dads younger brother, and she'd really not liked him from the get go, being cramped in a tiny one bedroom run down hunting cabin which housed pretty much the whole family (ten to be exact) didn't help matters any.
Then little by little the others perished and it became only the three of them..
Before all Esther really dreamed about was becoming an astronaut, now it's a daily struggle to survive in a world she doesn't recognize any more. Where food is becoming scarce, petrol is near extinct, and people you avoid like the plague.
To say I'm addicted to this series is an understatement!! And when I found out that another book was being released game over, I was all in feet and all. The perfect book to bring in the 'New Year'
They have to do the unthinkable to survive in a wasteland that's unforgiving, kill, scavenge, and even move from the only place they ever felt safe, and that's not an even feat when there's a small child involved that relies on them both. With the river close to their cabin supplying their main supplement slowly dwindles they decide they have to relocate where they had heard others like themselves had slowly started to settle in small communities in the West.
I enjoyed this one, I love the scavenging side of things, the worry of encountering strangers, are they friend or foe? How each series may be a new couple but we never say goodbye permanently to the ones already introduced because they mostly reappear.
Even though I loved this one, and it wrung out all those feels, I didn't completely feel that connection with these two even though it was a solid read, that just felt lacking compared to all the previous characters connections within this series, the development between these two just felt a wee bit off, lacking.
I can not wait for other books in this series to be released!!
