Teaming up with your neighbor during a zombie outbreak is a no-brainer, but if it turns out he’s a vampire . . . the stakes couldn’t be higher, in this infectious new paranormal romance from the USA Today bestselling author of Spoiler Alert.

When Edie Brandstrup attempts to save her sweet, seemingly harmless human neighbor from the first major zombie breach in two decades, she’s stunned to be saved by him—and his ridiculously large sword—instead. As it turns out, he's actually a super-old, super-surly vampire. But for all her neighbor's newly revealed cynicism and lethality, Gaston "Max" Boucher (yes, Gaston) is unexpectedly protective. He wants her to stay in his safety bunker until the breach is resolved. Edie can’t risk more innocent people getting killed, though—and Max won’t let her save them alone.

As they unravel a sinister conspiracy to set zombies loose on the world (again), the duo meet a host of lovable allies and discover they're not the only ones willing to fight for the future of humanity. Despite the awful timing, Edie finds herself falling for the vampire who’s helping her save the world . . . but all their dangerous plans could end their future before it even begins. As she and Max battle side by side, Edie must decide whether having a love worth living for also means having a love you'd die for—and, in a world that grows deadlier by the minute, whether that’s a risk she’s willing to take.

I'm still planning to get to this! It's high on my list soon...

I'm almost done, I just haven't been recording my thoughts so am working on that now.

Chapters 1-7
(view spoiler)[ Okay, this is so silly, but I’m enjoying it. I was worried after reading some reviews, but I’ve laughed aloud. Edie’s terrible canned food is very entertaining to me as is the singing. Max’s house is super interesting and I am curious why he decided to go with his Chad personality.

Chapters 8-16
(view spoiler)[ Okay damn, there’s a lot going on. This is still so silly but fun. The actual plot is very dumb but I enjoy these two a lot. It makes sense that it was sabotage given everything that's happened, but what is the Fae's aim here.

Chapters 17-24
(view spoiler)[ Gwen's not so helpful prophecies were hilarious. It's fun getting to see some other paranormals. I like Max and Edie together but this insta love is a bit much for me.

Finished
(view spoiler)[ Well that was cute, obviously worked out way too easily but that's to be expected. I was a bit thrown by the random Gwen POV until I realized it was building toward the next book which I will definitely pick up. Reading this I felt the joy Olivia Dade had writing it. The premise was not my thing but that joy was so lovely to read. I'll definitely pick up the next one. (hide spoiler)]
