For the past two years, Jules has floated through life.
When the virus was released it changed everything about the world. Jules lost her mom and her home, forcing her to live with the father she barely knows. Now, even as society works to rebuild, Jules still feels like she doesn’t quite fit in.
Then she meets Roman.
Even before the zombies, he only had himself to depend on. Brooding and rebellious, Roman isn’t anyone Jules would have pictured herself with before the zombies came. But now she finds herself willing to give up everything to be with him.
The attraction is too strong for either one of them to ignore, but Roman and Jules soon discover that the uncertainty of their new world extends much farther than just the zombies. When disaster strikes, Roman must race against the most terrifying clock imaginable to save Jules, or once again end up alone.
What is your favorite thing about BOOK?
This is definitely more YA romance, and while I know some people didn’t care for it because of that, I really did. Very little can push a person to risk everything the way a first love can, and it was fun to imagine Roman’s determination to save Jules. I also loved Mac, Roman’s best friend. He was a fun, quirky character and a great contrast to Roman’s cool, quiet personality.
Honestly, the more I think about it, the more I realize that I love almost everything about this book! The love story, the minor characters, the silly conversations teens have, the post-apocalyptic settlement, and the race to New Atlanta. That, though, has to be my favorite part of all, because it really helped shape what the city ends up being like in the Twisted Series, and because of the small part I wrote in Alone (adding the entertainment district and the black market) I was able to easily create the kind of dark and disturbing world that exists in that series.
