"For a place called Paradise City, this island sucks. I don't think a single day has gone by that I haven't thought about stabbing the shit out of myself," he said. "Especially since I'm forced to live with you every second of every day." "Sh. I'm trying to science," I said, not looking up from my binoculars. "See anything interesting?" "Not really. My vision's a little clouded from the fog and rain clouds you constantly emit." He laughed. "You never fail to amuse me, Rea." "But you just said-" "I just said you make me want to stab myself.

[Teen and New Adult Zombie Apocalypse Romance] "If you would've told me the last day of our peaceful existence would be a boring Tuesday in November, I would've called you an idiot." High school senior, Casey Whitmore, is about to discover her life isn't all about graduating with honors, taking her team to the championship, or being the perfect daughter. When Casey's mother comes down with the scariest illness imaginable, she is forced to take action, but no matter which way she turns the normal solutions are unavailable. As she searches for medical treatment, Casey crosses paths with two friends who agree to help. Derek is the broody, mysterious type while Thomas is the smooth wild card. The guys couldn't be more different, but are attractive and seductive in their own way. It's not until all communication is cut off that they realize the spreading illness is no accident, and the world becomes lost in a horrific whirlwind when the dead start attacking the living. Life must go on, but with no survival skills, Casey has a lot to learn. Even though Thomas and Derek prove to be invaluable during the fallout, love is still very much alive, and emotions run wild even during the zombie apocalypse.
