Live - Book Review

By Gillian Zane

Synopsis

Alexis, Blake and Zach survived the zombie apocalypse but found a new enemy to fight.

Alexis has been taken and Zach and Blake are desperate to find her. The men are pretty certain they know who took Alexis, but finding them will be a daunting task. There are millions of places to hide in the swamps of Southern Louisiana but Zach and Blake will not stop until they’ve searched every one of them. Alexis will be returned to them if it’s the last thing they do. Falling back on their military training, the men have no choice but to succeed, or risk losing Alexis forever.

It’s a race against the clock…

The problem is that the group that took Alexis didn’t keep her. They sold her. She’s now the property of the Southern Clan, a fate worse than death. The undead still roam the streets of New Orleans. S-Island mourns the loss of one of its own and the NOLA Zombie series comes to a stunning conclusion. You don’t want to miss a second of this action-packed series ender…

Be warned, there will be monsters, living and dead, there will be very intense sex scenes, between two men and one woman, and there will be violence galore.

Review

LIVE is the final book of the NOLA Zombie series and is a much larger book than the previous two. But when I say it’s the final book, that might not be the case because at the end we got a snippet of JUSTICE which is called book four in the series. So perhaps what they mean when they say it’s the final book is that it’s the final book in Alexis’s, Blake’s and Zach’s story. That would make sense because while those three get their HEA, the story is definitely not over and has been set up for what will either be book four in the series, or the first in a spin-off series. Either way, I’m looking forward to the next phase of this story.

LIVE is told in Alexis’s, Blake’s and Zach’s POV, which was a little tricky at times, especially with the two guys. Most of the book is about Alexis’s time in captivity and the boys mounting their rescue mission. We got a look inside the camp and learnt the true horrors of what goes on while it’s run by the lowest forms of humanity. There’s action, revenge, love and sex with two very hot men. What more could a girl ask for? While the men are hot, Alexis is my favourite character because she’s tough, smart and cool under pressure. And she can kick some serious arse.

They should know better, I was never one to wait around for a knight in shining armor. Fuck the saving, just show up after the fact and give me the happily-ever-after kiss. I’ll take that.
