I loved this novella! It has everything readers of Sci-Fi romance could want: love lost and found again, redemption, apocalyptic upheaval, and even a good dose of horror, with the author's space age idea of flesh-eating zombies! Instead of plodding along as zombies are wont to do, Ms. Dionne's creepy Moonshiners* zip around at breakneck speed, making them doubly scary.As with the first two books in the series, Ms. Dionne's* world-building is incomparable. Her descriptions are so strong and vividly real, you feel as if you're taking every step that James and Skye take. You breathe with them, feel your heart pound in unison with theirs, and you even hurt or smile jubilantly with them. My appreciation for Ms. Dionne's* talents has taken a giant stride with this novella, and I eagerly await book four in this spectacular series. I just hope I don't have to wait too long for it!" -Merrylee, Two Lips Reviews"I have to say 'hats off' to Aubrie Dionne for creating a masterpiece. I cannot find fault to this book. The characterization is deep, the descriptions perfect. Relationships are complex and even secondary plots get enough attention to make the reader stop and listen. I was excited about the fight for survival and moved by the portrayal of the world in ruin. It's brought home the great truth that people do have choices to make and are indeed masters of their own destinies without being overbearingly philosophical about it. 5/5" *-Ella, Read 2 Review *
