I received this novella by Ms. Monroe herself when I won a
contest. I’d never read any of her books
and while many of her titles caught my attention, this one looked too good to
pass up. And I’m so glad I didn’t because this story rocked!
As with any novella, they are short and to the point so
everything that has to be conveyed is done very fast. We start out in the middle of a Zombie attack
and Vet Dr. Coralee Bradley is trying to determine how she’s going to
survive. The military had already come
through and they got their asses whipped.
In comes sexy Sergeant Jordan Parks, looking for some
bandages when he’s hurt fighting. (He’s
not bitten, thank goodness!) But the
horde has overrun his who unit and now it’s just Cora and him. Sparks
fly, of course, and when the Zombies turn to the vet building, they have to run
to a large storage closet to hide.
Thinking they’re going to die, Cora and Jordan let lust run its course.
I won’t tell you how it ends but it’s a great set up for
another book…thank goodness! I loved
this short little story but I would have been disappointed if Ms. Monroe would
have stopped there. Luckily, she’s
informed me that another book is coming out later this year.
A lot of times in novellas, the characters aren’t fully
fleshed out and the writing is choppy.
Not so here. Even though it was
short, and even though I wished it had gone further, this story sets up nicely
as a prequel (as I’m thinking of it now).
I’m a fan of The Walking Dead and it brought to mind that story line,
except with very hot sex scenes. If you’re
a fan of Zombies, or just a fan of something different, then this is the one
for you!
