{"title":"What Remains Series | Post-Apocalyptic Romance | Paper Moon Bay","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe What Remains Series follows Bailey and Benji through a post-apocalyptic new adult romance about survival, connection, and what's left when the world disappears. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAbout the What Remains Series\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n\nIt begins the night the world stops making sense: the wind cuts out mid-storm, the power dies, and Bailey wakes to find his sister — and everyone else in his village — gone. Alone in a world gone silent, he doesn't expect Benji, guarded and infuriatingly unbothered by the end of everything, to become the one person he can't stop depending on.\n\nFrom there, the What Remains Series continues to follow Bailey and Benji as they navigate a world stripped down to almost nothing, and the fragile, stubborn connection growing between them in spite of it. Each book carries the story forward, following the same characters as they face what's left of their world, and what's left of themselves.\n\nIf you love survival stories with real emotional stakes and a slow-burn romance at the centre, this is a series worth starting from book one.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"post-apocalyptic-gay-romance-what-remains-book-one","title":"What Remains: Book One | Post Apocalyptic Gay Romance | Paper Moon Bay","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePre-order now.
