Review: A Zombie Romance
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 10 10, 2013
Halloween is not complete without a story involving zombies. This was a good story, and if you like your romance to include zombies you will enjoy it. I think this could have been a really great story if it was longer. Even though it does contain some important details that bring them to the point in this story, I feel a lot of details were still missing which left me with quite a few unanswered questions at the end. Hopefully, this will continue with another book or become a series because I'd love to read more of this story line.Sheri will do anything to protect her younger sister Dani, including being chained to a wall every night. She chases zombies to protect the people who live in the compound that took them both in when there was nowhere else to go. No one in the compound trusts Sheri because she was bitten by a zombie before Aleksy brought them there. It's been five years since she was bitten and she has not turned, but everyone in the compound knows it will happen eventually. Aleksy could not bring himself to have her killed, so now he's become her captor. At night he chains her to the wall and she tells him stories so that they can forget that they are fighting zombies to survive and waiting for Sheri to become one of the things they kill every day.Aleksy knows he should have killed Sheri the night he saw the bite mark on her after taking her and Dani back to his compound, but there was something that told him not to do it. Day after day he waits for the moment when he will have no choice but to end her life, but each day gets harder as his feelings for her grow. He hates that he needs to chain her for the safety of the others, but secretly her stories calm him, so he'll keep her alive as long as he can. Will he be able to kill her when that time arrives or will his growing needs put the people at the compound in jeopardy?I received a copy of this book for free from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
