Description

‘Laugh-out-loud moments with plenty of zombie chaos…the banter was brilliant, the pacing never let up… I flew through it.’ Reader Review ★★★★★

‘Brilliant. It had me chuckling many, many times.’ Reader Review ★★★★★

When life takes an apocalyptic turn, Zoey and Nick find out if their love story can survive a little bite…

Smoothie shop owner Zoey has always had a thing for men with brains. So, when she meets the brilliant and stunningly handsome local mushroom farmer, Nick, she’s instantly drawn to him.

Wanting a reason to call her new crush, Zoey enlists Nick's help (and his mushrooms) with her latest brain-boosting smoothie recipe. Before long, they have a viral sensation on their hands.

Sparks fly as Zoey and Nick grow closer, but when the locals start behaving weirdly—with strange mumblings and a fondness for biting—they wonder just how viral the side effects might be for their brand-new drink.

Can they find an antidote to the zombie apocalypse they may have unwittingly started before everything falls apart… literally?

PRAISE FOR 10 Things I Hate About Zombies:

‘Need more asap!.’ Reader Review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
