Description
Kyra knows she’s screwed. Trapped in a school while zombies stumble past just waiting for the survivors cowering inside to come out to play, she has no hope of getting out alive. She’s not the only one either, and sexy fellow survivor Riley seems hellbent on making their last few hours alive memorable ones.
But in a twist of fate neither one could have seen coming, Kyra and Riley realize that they might not be facing the end after all. Even more, they’re hit with the realization that what had started as a distraction might just turn out to be the best thing to ever happen to them. Assuming they can find somewhere safe.

Narrator did a nice job; she fit the lead character well. Decent quality recording. Overall, a good listen.
This is a quick story about some survivors at pretty much the beginning of the zombie apocalypse. It’s a little snap shot into these people’s lives while they are dealing with the danger from the zombies and what they need to do to survive. This one starts out being set in a high school, which was a fun setting. The group could’ve done a lot better job of finding weapons and supplies though. 21 year old Kyra is the lead for this story; she is tough to like most times, but she’s not a damsel. She’s rude, vulgar, likes one night stands and getting drunk, and thinks because she’s honest it’s okay to be a brat. It’s good to be honest and confident, but you don’t have to do that in a jerky way. I still had some moments of liking her though; she’s not all around horrible. She’s just young and needs more life experience. Riley is her romantic connection; he’s the type of guy that can charm anyone. He’s mostly a nice guy, and seems to appreciate Kyra’s attitude. They have some steamy times that start out as scratching an itch, but becomes more as they help each other survive. I enjoyed their romance and felt they worked well as a couple. There’s some fun zombie action going on, so that’s always great. Plus, it’s fun to see Kyra and company figuring out what they need to do to survive and how they deal with other survivors. An entertaining read.

This book was so good. It had my heart rate up and on the edge of my seat as they maneuvered through their new lives with Zombies and daily survival on the forefront. A romance developing all the while. The narrator did a good job and I really liked the MC’s.

Kate does it again! This time with a series of shorter novellas about the zombie apocalypse with a bit of steamy romance included. As always, a strong female lead. Kyra is tough and outspoken, yet honest and self-confident; you just have to look beyond the vulgarity. Riley is compassionate, a charmer with the same self-confidence. The two hit it off and give each other the strength and motivation to survive. A great story! I’m looking forward to the rest of the series.
