There are rules to the apocalypse, and not falling in love is one of them.
Bailey hasn’t had the best life. When the zombie outbreak happened, she was ten years old and became responsible for her infant brother. To protect her brother, she endured eight years of abuse before being able to strike out on her own, with Matty by her side.
When five men stumble into her life ten years later, Bailey isn’t sure what to do with them. They evoke desires inside her that she didn’t know she was capable of. Will they be able to break through her walls and rules? And what happens when the monster from her past finds her?
Bailey is a dark reverse harem featured in an apocalyptic setting. Our FMC won’t have to choose between her men. Please be mindful of your triggers. Bailey contains past child sexual assault, trauma, death, murder, rape, references to necrophilia, and spicy content meant for an adult audience. While it deals with dark themes, it is also a story about healing and overcoming your past.

Welp, this was a serious disappointment.
Post-apocalypse RH
Zombies
Insta-lust/sex
Simplistic writing
Telling not showing
One-dimensional characters
The men all blended together
Bonus points for creative use of a zombie
HEA
In less than three hours of meeting them, she’s seen all but one of them naked. Really wish there had been some character development before the flirting/sex started.
TW for the SA of a child. Her entire personality revolved around what happened to her as a child. Despite how tired I was of hearing about it, I do think the author handled the characters journey to healing quite well.
This will be graphic with spoilers so don’t read if you want to go in blind…what really bothered me the most was

October 8, 2024Don’t ignore those trigger warnings. It’s not a brief mention, it’s repeatedly talked about in varying levels of detail and is on page, so be forewarned.
I was enjoying this until about 60% through. It wasn’t anything mind blowing, but it was everything you expect from an apocalyptic zombie reverse harem. It was very insta-love, and that was about the point they started acting on things and some of that was just super awkward. Then it started changing tense all over the place, and okay, it’s annoying but I can deal with that. But at 70% we get a new POV to read from: the paedophile who abused her as a child as he’s thinking about all the things he’s going to do to his new ‘play toy.’ Hard freaking pass. So slight spoiler, that sick freak is still alive, and he learns Bailey is too.
WhY dO wE kEeP gEtTiNg ChApTeRs FrOm HiS vIeWpOiNt?
There were six other main characters I could have dealt with, and we get him. It’s a damn zombie apocalypse, the undead should be the source of conflict for this story. Or a rival farm, or hungry group of travellers jealous of your setup. This was just…. No.
Points for creative use of a zombie, but this story died a hard freaking death for me.

Bailey: Love In The Apocalypse is a contemporary post-apocalyptic romance written by N.A. Jameson.
💜 strong, independent FMC
💜 found family
💜 why choose
💜 zombies
💜 🌶🌶🌶🌶 spice
Bailey’s last memory of her parents was when she was ten. Her dad had given her brother to her to hold while he lifted them in a truck and turned away to stay with their mother. She had to raise her brother ever since. Now seventeen years later, they are living together on a farm. But, what happens when five strangers are brought into the house by her brother because one of the strangers was injured? Would she help them? Would she let them stay or send them to a neighboring farm?
This is a good post apocalyptic romance that stayed true to the era. And of course there are zombies. But, this is also a story about healing old wounds and learning to trust not only yourself but others as well. I really enjoyed this book.

Bailey is a post apocalyptic why choose romance.
Bailey is strong, a survivor. Not only of the cruel zombie filled world she lives, but also because of the hellish trauma she has experienced. She’s smart, defensive and inventive, taking care, not only of herself, but her brother Matty too.
Bailey had rules and structure she lived by. But all went out the window when Matty brought home 5 strangers. Soon, all the walls she built to keep love out came crumbling down.
This was a great, fast paced story with lots of action and lots of “action”. It also had me all in my feels. Terror for what Bailey endures, excitement over her future, and satisfaction at the HEA for all of them!
Bailey is a great read with spicy smut, loving moments, and a bada$$ lead who finds love after the apocalypse!

I have loved Nebby’s other books and while I wasn’t sure what to expect from this post-apocalyptic romance story it was such a good surprise and I loved it.
This is a quick burn and jumps in two feet first. There is no slow build-up where we meet the characters separately and then they meet. Nope they meet in a heated moment where someone’s injured, guns are drawn, and threats made.
Why choose between 5 strangers when they all want you and the apocalypse doesn’t offer up a lot of choices. Maybe she’s greedy but Bailey certainly deserves some happiness.
Bailey hasn’t had it easy since the apocalypse. She lost her parents and was responsible for her infant brother and to keep him safe she was subject to a living nightmare. But she was tougher than anyone saw, and she was smart. Making a plan to get her and her brother Matty to safety and a new life.
This might not be the deepest of stories but it was a great escape and kept me interested the whole way through.
The guys helping Bailey heel and getting past her walls is a classic story but Nebby gives it something a little different with the quick burn.
My one thing that had my asking questions was that Bailey believes the apocalypse brought out the worst in people and has her defences up all the time even with people she’s know a while. Somehow these five men, who could easily overpower her and take everything she has come into her life and she lets her walls down rather quickly. Even her brother Matty, knowing everything she’s been through leaves her to these men.
It seems a little strange when taking in Bailey’s back story and believes about the world now, but if you can look past that and just let the story take you away you’ll enjoy it as much as I did.
.
.
.
Bailey’s nightmare wakes her up again and what she thinks is her brother sneaking in again turns out out be something that could be very dangerous for her and Matty.
Five men are in her kitchen one badly injured and hoping for her help. Matty knows she’s the best person to help them and he’s hoping that they’ll be good for her.
Bailey warns the men not to step out of line and Matty tells them what she’s been through and the five of them set out to win Bailey and show her that there are things worth wanting still in the apocalypse and that all her rules might not be the ones to live by.
‘1. Love is a weakness, and it makes you do some really dumb shit. 2. Nothing is freely given. Every kindness comes with a price, and you better make sure you can pay it. 3. Children don’t belong here. 4. Promises have no meaning.’
Boone, Caleb, Ethan, Pike, and Gray have been together from the beginning of the apocalypse too and before in fact. They aren’t real brothers but that’s how they see themselves. They are a family, and they are there for each other through the good and the bad. They weren’t looking for Bailey and she is everything they could want and more.
“You are the most spectacular and amazing person we have ever met,” Caleb said. “Every time I think I see you, think I’ve got you figured out, the curtain gets pulled back a little further, and I find out again just how fucking strong you are.”
For Bailey they pull the covers from her eyes and let her see the world anew and there is more to life than just surviving.
‘These men made my day brighter just by being a part of it.’
Despite surviving some of the worst life has to throw at you Bailey’s not going to get her happily ever after easily. With five men who adore her and her brother grown and happy himself she should be on the way there, instead she’s going to face evil again and the five men who love her might not be enough to save her.
‘Our family might be a little broken now, but we would be ok. I was going to make sure of it.’
Happy Reading.

I was very excited to read this book and not only did the blurb interest me but that cover just draws you in. This book did not disappoint at all, and had you gripped from the very first page.
The story starts with Bailey at 10 years old and how she and her baby brother are separated from her parents and then fast forward to her current time and Bailey is older and wiser and a force to be reckoned with. This is a no-nonsense female character who knows how to handle herself and sets herself up with four simple rules for dealing with the current times:
Love is a weakness, and makes you do some really dumb sh@t;
Nothing is freely given. Every kindness comes with a price, and you better make sure you can pay
Children don’t belong here;
Promises have no meaning
These rules are her religion that she stands by, they have got her to where she is now and that is being self-efficient and trading with those close by. She has Matty by her side, but she knows that won’t be forever as he is older now and his own life starting.
Then one day everything changes with Matty arriving with five men at their place and one is in need of her medical assistance. These men stir things in her that have been dormant for years, stirrings that she always believed to be wrong due to the extended abuse she suffered when she was younger. With the introduction of Boon, Pike, Caleb, Ethan and Gary we now see a different side to Bailey – we see the vulnerable side of her, that she keeps hidden. We see the internal scars and struggles she has kept hidden in her depths to survive. Each man brings something different that Bailey needs and they give her the inner strength to become something more, something fuller. These gruff men show compassion and a softness for Bailey and they do everything that they can to pull her out of the depths of despair that her mind and thought process is in and to get her to re-evaluate her rules. Can these five men bring Bailey out the other side and give them all the chance of a HEA. Let’s be honest how long can they keep going without the effects of the Zombies turning up on their doorstep.
This is not just a why choose book, but is a book about overcoming your fears and the issues of what people have caused to show that with the right people by your side you can get over everything. I loved how the relationship developed over time and wasn’t rushed and once they got past the insecurities and constraints their times together with Bailey individually and in a group setting are hot hot hot. We also have the backdrop of this story with survival and getting supplies and the dealings with Zombies. What a read!!!

Bailey by N.A. Jameson had me feeling all the feels.
Taking place in a post apocalyptic world, Bailey is a story of survival and learning to trust again after so much tragedy.
Bailey goes through life having to protect her young brother and herself and learned at a very young age learned that love makes you weak, and you can only trust and rely on yourself to survive.
After surviving years of sexual assault, Bailey finally gets her brother and herself away from her abuser and learns all she can to thrive in a world of chaos.
When she meets 5 men that will change her life and her way of thinking, she learns to trust and love someone other than her brother.
But old evils are still around and Bailey may not survive to love again.
I highly recommend Bailey to anyone who enjoys a RH romance with a bada$$ FMC and the mens who make her life complete.
I do want to warn you, if you have any triggers, you definitely want to pay attention to the TW at the beginning, and be sure to grab your box of tissues.

I'm a sucker for a zombie or post apocalyptic book, especially when its RH style. I knew I had to read this and I'm so glad I did. It didn't disappoint!
The story noves pretty quickly, so it will keep your attention all the way through.
There was some action and suspense, as well as a few edge of your seat moments.
Also, found family, humor and steam.
I loved Bailey. She was smart, resilient and brave. I especially loved how much she protected and loved her brother.
Caleb, Boone, Ethan, Pike, and Gray were the guys. They were so good to Bailey and understanding of her past trauma.
I loved how the guys encouraged her and helped to open her up and show her love.
The spice was perfect. I think the author did a great job when adding the spicy scenes. Handled her trauma.
I must admit, when we got a certain characters POV i was really hoping they were going to be eaten alive by zombies. I was quite pleased with the outcome!
The ending was satisfying and I loved the epilogue. It was perfect!

I throughly enjoyed this book. Bailey is so strong, smart, and cares deeply about the people dear to her. This is an RH. The MMCs are Boone, Caleb, Ethan, Pike, and Gray. The guys are so caring and patient with Bailey, especially with effects of her past trauma still lingering. Bailey healing through out the story and the action in the book was so good. The thought that went into creating the world within the book was amazing from the logistics of trading to the protection of the Bailey's homestead. This is a quick burn book and Bailey is a strong FMC. It is set in a post apocalyptic world, but that not the main focus of the story. Each guy was was different, Pike being my favorite, This book is ultimately about Bailey and focuses on her.

Really enjoyed this one it made me realize how much I like reading zombie Apocalypse romance.
The biggest point of the book was definitely healing. Bailey is such a strong character. She was caring, strong, a bad@$$, she is someone that went through a lot in Order to keep herself and her baby brother somewhat safe. Bc of that the only person she showed any love to was Matty (brother) not even to herself.
Boone, Pike, Ethan, Caleb and Gray basically fell in love with Bailey the minute they saw her. They were very patient with her and respected her boundaries. They showed her how much she deserves to love and be loved. I liked how she had time with all of them. The author made sure she had a connection to all five of them.
I honestly can't complain about how fast their relationship/feelings moved. Bc at the end of the day if 5 hot guys come live with me in an Apocalypse I'm definitely moving fast. Don't get me wrong it felt fast bc the book itself wasn't long but once ur into the story it moves at the pace it should considering all the trauma she has.
The end of the book added 10 years to my life. Loved LOVED how they got their very happy ending. The mix between zombie action, love and healing created an amazing book!!
.... the part were her past comes back to haunt her did feel a bit rushed to me. It just happened and ended so fast 😭

If you love a good post apocalypse world you may want to give this one a try. Bailey was 10 when the apocalypse started and from then on she cared for her baby brother and created rules to survive. Her trauma stems more from just being left behind by her father. What she had to endure for years is horrific and it was hard to read, but it was also healing in a way. When one night her brother brings home 5 strange men, Bailey finds her rules being turned on their head. Boone, gray, pike, Caleb and Ethan all made a huge impact on bailey's life. They helped her through her traumas and made her realize that not only is love possible, its necessary.

Do you want a book set during the zombie apocalypse with hot men and steamy scenes? This book is your read. I couldn't put it down and read it in less than 24 hours. The FMC is relatable. Now I will say to watch your triggers as there is SA in the book. The whole book was a complete masterpiece and honestly I can see myself reading this again and again. NA Jameson brought these characters and the story to life and made me laugh, cry and throw things!
October 31, 2023
Holy cheese on a cracker.
Wow. Just WOW. I got completely sucked into the story and finished it in one sitting, the range of emotions, I laughed out loud, and I cried at one point, I gagged, lmao. The plot sucks that you in. Bailey is something else. Her men are amazing! This has to be NA best book yet!

Absolutely brilliant. Bailey is a strong woman who has been through awful stuff in her life to protect her brother. After everything, a few men decided to quite literally fall into Baileys house because one of the men has been injured. Her walls are up but, can these men break them down?
Will Bailey get love in the Apocalypse?

I loved how Bailey was written, and she had her rules to protect herself and her brother Matty from ever being hurt again. They were based on what she had learned early on in the Apocalypse. Although I need to say if you have triggers, heed the TW.
Coming from the perspective of someone who experienced SA in their life I can appreciate how the author portrayed Bailey's reactions to certain things. Especially her overprotectiveness of Matty and not wanting to be touched unexpectedly. These things were very well done.
I loved how much of a bada$$ she was. Her introduction to the five men showing up at her home was a shotgun in their faces. But Ethan, Boone, Gray, Caleb, and Pike were able to show her that love was not a bad thing. They taught her to accept help from them and open her heart.
She still goes through some tough times with them there, but they prove they're not going anywhere.
This is a book I'll be able to read again because I loved the characters and the ending the author gave us.

This was a fantastic story. I loved how original it is. Bailey is such a sweet and caring person but yet is extremely strong. You can feel her pain throughout the story as she has endured so many trials and tribulations. The guys add that beautiful element that shows Bailey that there is more to life than just living day to day. There is action, drama, and suspense that pulls you end and doesn’t let go. Her past seems to trying to catch up with her and the her and the guys really are put to the test. I loved the descriptions and how vivid they are as they allow me to easily picture what is happening throughout the story. This story is absolutely amazing and I loved how it ended. It was the perfect way to end it. This is absolutely a must read and it will not disappoint.

Omgggg I am absolutely in LOVE with this book! Bailey is such a kick@ss character and as someone who has experienced SA previously, she is exactly how I am as far as it takes a lot for me to open up to people and truly experience love. We can all hope to one day find ourselves smexy hot 🥵 guys that melt the ice around our hearts like Pike, Ethan, Gray, Caleb, and Boone! The ending was absolutely perfect and I am actually a little sad that I’m done with it already but I am definitely keeping it as a re-read book!!!!

I was very excited to read this book based off the excerpt alone, add in the gorgeous cover and I was immediately drawn to it.
This book did not disappoint, I was hooked from the very first page.
You begin the story when Bailey was 10, and it tells how she and her little brother were seperated from their parents, then it fast forwards to now where Bailey is older, wiser, and takes no nonsense. She knows how to handle herself and has set four simple rules for dealing with the apocalypse.
-Love is a weakness
-Nothing is free, even kindness comes with a price
-Children don't belong here
-Promises have no meaning
She stands by these rules, as they have gotten her and her little brother to where they are now.
Then one day, everything changes. Matty, her little brother comes home with 5 men, one whom is in need of medical assistance. With Boon, Gary, Pike, Ethan, and Gray, we now see a side to Bailey that she has kept hidden due to her past trauma. We see the internal struggles and scars that Bailey has kept under wraps in an effort to survive. Each man brings something different to the table to give Bailey what she needs and gives her inner strength to heal, to become something more.
Can these 5 men help Bailey overcome her past and give her a Happy Ever After in the midst of a Zombie Apocalypse? How long can they keep going without the effects of the Zombies showing up on their doorstep?
This is so much more than just a why choose romance novel, its everything in between. Add in a post apocalyptic backdrop complete with survival and zombies and its a well rounded read. You won't be disappointed!!

This is incredible zombie apocalypse romance. Bailey is our amazing FMC. She has done everything to protect her brother Matthew. She has suffered for years but she is strong for it. But when her brother brings five men back with him, she is immediately attracted to them. Caleb, Boone, Pike, Ethan, and Gray feels the same pull to her. The more learn they about her past, the more they fall for her and want to show her true pleasure and love. But her past will come crashing at them and will all of them survive? You will definitely have to read to find out.

I loved this book so much! There was a lot of trauma for the main character Bailey but we got to see her work through that and eventually recover. I love that she had her men to help her through everything. I love her brother and how protective he was of her when Scott came back into the picture. I absolutely love what Bailey did to Scott in the end and he absolutely deserved that. One of my favorite types of books take place in an apocalypse of some type and this was no exception. Absolutely amazing and will definitely be reading this one again!

What a journey, I usually hesitate to read anything regarding zombie’s because it’s usually all the same. This story was unlike any other I’ve read. I truly enjoyed getting to know Bailey and her rules. I fell in love with her and there were times that I wanted to smack her but all that aside her story is one of the best.

Bailey is Awesome
This book is a masterpiece. I loved Bailey from page one and her harem as soon as they appeared. It is a story of survival, trauma, healing and revenge. It is an emotional experience that runs the gamut. I the spice is ::chef’s kiss:: N.A. really knows how to write good RH spice and this does not disappoint. I can’t wait till next year for another story from this world.

A really good ZA romance
I don't think I've read this author before, but I love ZA romance, especially RH and the cover and blurb for this was appealing. This was a really good read. I finished it in one setting and would have happily gobbled up a series with these characters.

Bailey: Love in the apocalypse is a standalone in the Love in the apocalypse series. This DOES have triggering content and please be advised!
Bailey is a fast paced, insta-lust/love, Whychoose, post apocalyptic story. It’s been a long time since I've read anything in an apocalypse setting. Overall, It was pretty good. Bailey, as a character, was a strong, resilent, caring FMC. The guys, they were alright, but I was hoping for more of character development. Bailey has had it hard. She's had to grow up and be a parental figure at such a young age. I get why she is so closed off. But seriously, the healing from such traumatic experiences were my favorite part of this story. It was really well done.

This is only the second post apocalyptic story that I read but it was everything. I loved reading about Bailey and her men. This story was about more than the apocalypse it was about healing and having a found family.

They found love and I'm here for it
Please check any cw/tw before reading this, there are parts that could be heavily triggering for some. I loved it. Reading through Bailey's growth after her horrific childhood was an emotional roller coaster. There were definitely ups and some pretty hard downs but she gets her HEA.

I love this book! The story gripped me in from the first page. I felt like I was in that world! N.A. Jameson writes the best books! I can't wait and I'm excited for whatever book she writes next!

If you love zombies, a badass take no crap from no one FMC, some steamy scenes, and oh lots of men worshipping our FMC then you have got yourself the right book. Bailey was exactly what I was hoping for and wish I had so much more of her. She’s been on her own used to caring for her brother but when she needs to learn it’s okay to let other people take care of her that’s hard to do. I must say she’s definitely a lucky lady to have FIVE men who want to do just that. I loved this story and wish she had a whole series.
