Danger lurks around every corner but if the three of them stick together things will be alright. Ali is forced to navigate the world full of zombies, bad people and figuring out how to love two men at the same time.

 I really enjoyed this book it was a lot of fun. I like that romance can bloom among the dead. Ali is a scared woman and she doesn't know who to trust and along comes Dan. He's pushy and forward and knows what he wants: Ali. But he not a creep like some of the male survivors left. He doesn't force Ali to do anything she doesn't want to do he's really patient and willing to let her figure out things on her own. They fight like cats and dogs but that's because Dan has the irrational need to protect her even from herself. Then Finn comes in and the sexual tension skyrockets. I loved when the three of them eventually get together it's really hot! The three of them have to figure out how to work as a triad. They all have to learn how to give and take. I liked and hated that the guys tended to take control of Ali a lot. It was hot because alpha men are super attractive but it also sucks because it made Ali seem weak. Though near the end of the book she seems to be able to stand up for herself with her men. The end of the book was unexpected and interesting kind of reminded me of a certain season of the walking dead. A really great book I find the concept original and haven't read any other books like it.
