Follow a group of survivors on a journey that spans eleven books and twenty years as they search for safety in a world overrun by the dead…When a deadly virus sweeps the country, Vivian sets out for California in hopes of seeing the daughter she gave up for adoption. Then her car breaks down and she’s faced with a choice: give up or accept a ride from redneck brothers, Angus and Axl. Vivian … Angus and Axl. Vivian knows getting in the car with strangers is a risk, but with time running out, she’s willing to do whatever it takes to reach her daughter.
The virus is spreading, and by the time the group makes it to California, most of the population has already been wiped out. When the dead start coming back, Vivian and the others realize that no electricity or running water are the least of their concerns. Now Vivian must learn how to be a mom under the most frightening circumstances, cope with Angus’s aggressive mood swings, and sort out her growing attraction to his brooding younger brother, Axl.
While searching for a safe place to go, the group meets a pompous billionaire who may be the answer to all their problems. Trusting him means going into the middle of the Mojave Desert and possibly risking their lives, but with the streets overrun and nowhere else to turn, he might be their only chance for survival…

The plot was ok, but none of the characters made me feel emotionally invested. I had no personal interest in the survival or death of any of the characters.
Better than the usual free book but too much like any other zombie book, show, or movie.
It was ok
A wonderful action packed read, never booring. Leads well into the sequel. and I’m already several chapters into it.
This was good…I don’t want to spoil anything about the story but I’m reading the second book now so it was obviously good enough to buy book 2. Axel and Vivian are likable and although they came from bad beginnings they are innately intelligent.
You have to read the next book in the series. It didn’t hold up on its own.
Good book. Kept me reading. First in a series, but I am having trouble finding rest of series in electronic version. Zombie topic, but not too gory
Kate L Mary has brought her characters to vivid life in this series. A must read for Z.A.fans, romance fans and fans of a damn good story. I fell in love with Axel and will root for him and Vivian as long as Kate keeps writing about them. I feel like they are my family, certainly people I would be happy to navigate the terrors of a Zombie …
This book has so much class for a zombie apocoliptic book. Characters are so real and easy to relate to. No superpowers or magic, just everday people like us.
