Before the day... before M-day... people used to read books and watch movies about zombies. They used to dress up as zombies; pretend to kill zombies... Basically, zombies had become a part of popular culture in a very unexpected way. The highly anticipated zombie apocalypse never came. What did come was much worse than any city over run with shambling corpses after brains and flesh. A virus... a virus that only affected men. Nobody knew what caused it, or where it had come from, not that it really mattered. It's here and there's no going back. Maxine was one of the lucky ones--she got out alive. She and her friends banded together to survive the new desolate conditions left behind by the virus. When a supply gathering mission goes awry, Max and company are left with no better choice than to trust a group of uninfected military men. No longer on the run from her infected husband, Max discovers there could be worse dangers for her on the horizon... Like losing her heart to her mysterious savior everyone calls Zee.
