Resumen del Editor

Two boys fall in love in a deadly world, but it's the secrets they keep that might kill them.

Seventeen-year-old Zach was visiting his uncle in a small Montana town when a mysterious illness ripped through the world. Most died, but those who survived the Infection became mindless killers, spreading the disease with a single scratch. Now, a year later, civilization lies in ruins, and Zach is the town's sole survivor. Desperately lonely, he longs to return to his family in Seattle, but his fears hold him captive.

Eighteen-year-old Aiden is on a critical mission for the covert Scientific Collective, delivering vials whose contents could cure the Infection. Tortured by his boyfriend's death, he welcomes the risks of the perilous journey. When a militia attacks Aiden, he flees to Zach's town.

The boys escape together and soon form a bond as they comfort each other in this desolate and broken world. The farther they travel, the more their affection grows, as do the forces pulling them apart. But their greatest threats are the secrets they keep. Zach hides details of his uncles death, and Aiden conceals the vials sinister origins. In order to survive, they'll have to confront the truths that could tear their love apart.

minimal internal angst.

an enjoyable few hour with a likely post apocalypse world. descriptions of the landscape are particularly fine

I'm glad I took a chance with this!

Both author and narrator are new to me and this was my first post apocalyptic/zombie m/m romance so I feel like I hit the jack pot in that both the story and the performance kept me engaged - so much I can't believe how much I enjoyed this. I hope Paul Michael Winters hasn't spoiled me as I most definitely will seek out more books like this.

5 starz - worthy of a repeat listen

good story great narrating

overall I loved the story and the writing. Characters were only minimally annoying. I was definitely left wanting more.

I loved this book!!!!!

I loved this book listened to it in one sitting I just couldn’t stop listening made my little gay heart happy would recommend I wish it didn’t have to end Zach and Aiden were perfect characters the type of love I want

It’s so beautiful I hope we get a sequel

That ending was amazing same with the narrator bravo this left me wanting more and more for every chapter.

This was great

Character development

I really like how they explain how it felt to be alone and what they had to go through, but I feel like that could be less inappropriate stuff and more focusing on the real mission

A fun, emotional and awesome story

This book is the perfect blend of a sweet gay love story with a post-apocalypse adventure. It had me binge consuming it by the end of the second chapter. If you like the show Heartstopper, you will love the two protagonists in this story.

Post-apocalyptic Romance

Definitely one of my favorites so far. Well written and makes you fall in love with the characters.

This book had incredible depth and detail

I loved how it portrayed what it’s like to push emotions down and bottle them up. It had incredible character development and didn’t have too much unnecessary miscommunication added in. Overall I think that this would be one of my favorite post apocalyptic books I’ve read.

My new favorite book

I love the dynamic these two people have! I think the story makes a lot of sense, the writing is excellent, it doesn't feel rushed, and the story is just gorgeous. I totally recommend this and would definitely give it a read!
