Sheriff's Lover ||| Rick Grimes

"Are you trying to get me drunk, officer?"
"What if I am?"

Thirty-two-year-old office worker, Elaina Heart was all alone on the streets of Atlanta when a man in a sheriff's uniform trots down the road on a horse.

She decides to join him on his mission to find his family because she doesn't want to be left behind.

The two run into a massive hoard that cuts them off. They are forced to hide inside an abandoned tank on the now busy streets.

Just when they think all hope is lost, a man's voice comes over the radio.

He rescued them and the two join a new group on the outskirts of Atlanta.

What happens when Elaina begins to fall for the married man?

What happens when he starts to discover feelings for her too?

And what happens when his wife finds out?

TW!! Mentions of death, suicide, SA, blood, harsh language and gore.

Note #1: 90% of all characters and storylines all are based off of the TV Show and comic series The Walking Dead. I do not take credit for these characters.

Note #2: Some storylines are changed to better fit my ideas for how this story will go. Not everything will be like how you see on tv.

Note #3: There is smut in this book. I wasn't originally planning on it but due to popular demand, there is a handful of smutty chapters that will be appearing. You're welcome.

Note #4: This book was originally named "Sheriff's Lover ||| Rick Grimes x Reader (TWD x Reader)" but after further review, I decided to turn Y/N into an OC. I'm sorry if this comes as a surprise to some of my older readers.

Started: January 17th, 2023.
Changed from x reader to OC on: December 3rd, 2024.
