Blurb:
Andi was doing just fine on her own. Sure the world had been hit with an outbreak that turned anyone infected into flesh eating zombies. Not to mention that everyone she ever loved was now dead. She was alive though, taking care of herself. She had little desire to indulge in building relationships with anyone. People just couldn't be trusted. Whether they screwed you over intentionally, or just managed to get themselves killed, no one stuck around for very long. She didn't need anyone else either. That was until Will showed up to save her.
Will, with his sparkling green eyes, lips you just wanted to taste, and insanely adorable crooked smile, wasn't letting Andi get rid of him so easily. Yet still, Andi did everything she could to push her feelings, and Will, away. The more time they spent together though, the more difficult that became. In a world where another day was not something you could count on, wasting even a single moment, could mean missing out on your only chance for happiness.
Book Teaser:
"Andi," He took my chin
into his hand, gently lifting it to meet his sparkling gaze. "The last
thing I want to do is leave you." A tear escaped down my face and he wiped
it away with his thumb, pulling me against him. I could hear his heart thump
loudly in his chest and smell that familiar scent so unique to him. I wanted to
stay there like that forever, forget the rest of the world. Will took a long
deep breath into my hair and nudged me back to look in my eyes. "You don't
want me to leave, do you?"
"No." was all I could
manage. I wanted to tell him I couldn't bear the thought of him leaving, that I
didn't even want to leave the middle of this street for fear of the distance
that had been between us this week would return. He leaned down closer, his
breath warm against my face, his lips almost touching mine.
"Good."
Will gave me one of his signature crooked smiles.
Angie's Review:
I received this book for an honest review.
I love Zombies. I have read a couple great zombie novels by another author so I was excited to find another author writing about the same genera.
I really gave this a 3.75 rating but I rounded up :)
OK I must first say I am not a HUGE YA reader but I did enjoy this story. When a fellow blogger mentioned needing some reviews of a zombie book with a love story, I said YES PLEASE!! I love zombies love stories and the Walking Dead.
When I started reading this story it was a little slow to get going. Andi and Will were kinda living in the same space and dealing with their reality. Then Andi is kidnapped by not very nice cousins who want her for "companionship" to put it nicely. Will saves the day and then he and Andi have a "moment". I was waiting for that first kiss but it didn't happen. Then Will gets a bit douche and is pulling away. When I get really angry at him is when JANET shows up....growl JANET!!!! So they have a "history" and she is defo giving off the Will is Mine vibe to Andi. Andi is sooo confused, as was I. She thinks Will likes her but he is sleeping in bed with Janet at night?????? So I begin to notice I can't put this book down. I am totally and completely invested in the book. I will say I was shocked at how fast I got completely wound up and stressed!!!! Which is the marking of a great book right????? So anyway, the angst is ramping up and my emotions area alllll over the place. When I am totally confused and stressed out over Andi/Will/Janet comes Dan....*rolls tongue back in to my mouth* Dan puts the moves on Andi and Will gets jealous!! WHUT!!! I am like Andi and confused totally. Well Dan and Andi talk and straighten things out. When the Dan/Andi and Andi/Will and Will/Janet mess is finally revealed I was happy. So I think Wow that was great but wait...there is still more to the story!!!! So the 4 decided to make their way to a medical/military base to get support and maybe have a real life??? OMG then the story gets intense again......they get trapped by a horde.....OMG this was a great book but I am left kinda hanging as to the end....is there more to this story? i hope so because I want to know what happens with everyone.....

L J lives on the Jersey Shore with her husband, four kids, two cats, and an inherited dog from hell (a.k.a. the sewer gremlin). Though writing has always been her first passion, she got a degree in psychological counseling and worked in the mental health field for awhile, which she finds very helpful in dealing with her crazy family. She is a lover of all different types of music and books, switching between genres so wildly it sometimes makes people wonder if she has multiple personalities. She is most likely to be found writing romance stories of all kinds (contemporary, erotic, new adult, young adult, fantasy, etc.) and has just finished writing her first book, Save Me. When she's not writing, she prefers to spend her time reading, taking photos, or spending time with her family.
