It's called SHATTERED WORLD by Kate L. Mary and it's her second book in the BROKEN WORLD series.
Stranded
in the middle of the Mojave Desert, surrounded by zombies, Vivian and Axl are
sure they’re facing the end. The dead are closing in and the shelter they were
promised is sealed tight. Just when they think they’ve run out of time, the
doors are thrown open. Five years underground with all the provisions there for
the taking. It’s almost too good to be true. With the promise of security,
Vivian hopes she’ll finally able to deal with the loss of Emily, her growing
feelings for Axl, and the terrifying new world they’re facing.
But their sense of security is soon shattered when they discover the shelter
isn’t the utopia they thought it would be. It seems the company that built the
shelter decided to solve their financial problems by selling off provisions,
which means the group has to find a way to get supplies. Or face starvation.
And Vegas is the closest city.
With her feelings for Axl stronger than ever, Vivian volunteers to accompany
him and a few others on a trip into one of the biggest tourist cities in the
world. Vegas is overrun with the dead, but there are other survivors as well.
Only not everyone they meet is a welcome sight. As the emotional baggage piles
up, Vivian and Axl’s bond grows stronger, but it doesn’t take long to realize
that zombies aren’t the only thing they have to fear.

Mary is a stay-at-home mother of four and an Air Force wife. She spent most of
her life in a small town just north of Dayton, Ohio where she and her husband
met at the age of twelve. Since their marriage in 2002, they have lived in
Georgia, Mississippi, South Carolina, and California.
Kate
enjoys any post-apocalyptic story – especially if zombies are involved – as
long as there is a romantic twist to give the story hope. Kate prefers
nerdy, non-traditional heroes that can make you laugh to hunky pieces of
man-meat, and her love of wine and chocolate is legendary among her friends and
family. She currently resides in Oklahoma with her husband and children.
