    Summary

    Daryl and Beth are still dating in secret after her parents made it clear they would never accept their relationship. Now, with Beth starting college hours away from Daryl, the distance only adds to the weight of what they’re already carrying. Their worlds—so different to begin with—feel even further apart.

    Can they hold on to each other through the pressure of being apart, the judgment of others, and the ghosts of their pasts? Or will Hershel end up being right—that Daryl will only end up hurting Beth in the end?

    Through traumatic memories, jealousy, insecurity, and fear, their love prevails. But will that be enough? And what happens when the Dixons' criminal past catches up with them in the middle of it all?

    ------
    This is a sequel to my other fanfic: Dixon's girl. If you haven't read it, you might not know what's going on. 😉

    Summary

    Beth Anne Greene was fifteen years old when the Dixons showed up in the city in which she went to school. Thankfully she lived at the outskirts, her farm being in the driving distance from the city center. It meant that although the Dixons were a huge problem for the families of almost all of her friends, Beth stayed out of the biker’s way. For over two years.
    Then something happened.
    Sophia Peletier went missing. Beth, as everyone else, joined the search, and as she was walking through the woods, her foot got caught in a snare. That's when she met Daryl Dixon for the first time and from that moment on... everything changed.

    Or Beth falls in love with a much older biker and one of the most feared men in town.
    A coming of age kind of fic that's been sitting on my disk for too long.

    Summary

    Despite all of Marshall’s efforts and the blood, sweat, and tears he shed alongside Rick and his group, the harsh reality of the new world can’t be ignored forever. Everything, no matter how reinforced, can come crumbling down when enough pressure is applied. The worst part of it? He thought he’d finally found a home. He was building something here, something safe, with a new found family. With Daryl. Now it’s back to square one. It’d be easier if he stopped getting his hopes up. It’d hurt less, but… that’s not who Marshall is. That’s not who he’ll ever be.

    Summary

    After Merle is arrested and sent to prison, Daryl is forced to find a new life for himself. Taking direction on instinct alone he ends up in Gulf Shores, Alabama where he learns to find happiness, friends, and a home he never thought he could have.

    Being divorced doesn't mean you get the deposit back on your condo. After separating from his wife, Rick Grimes drives down to the gulf alone and falls for the easy, laid back vacation he'd meant to take with his family. So much in fact, he decides to make it a new tradition for himself.

    Unfortunately, Gulf Shores isn't that big of a town and crossing paths with a person who wronged you in the past could look like a simple coincidence. But when it keeps happening, is it less like a coincidence and more like fate?
