Publisher's summary

This is a romance novella set in a post-apocalyptic world. It switches perspectives, bouncing back and forth between a female and a male POV.

Lucy was just nine years old when a deadly virus swept the country, killing most of the population and turning them into zombies. For the past 11 years, she’s lived in seclusion with her Uncle Seamus, a prepper who was more than ready for the end of the world. But all of Lucy's skills are put to the test when Seamus disappears, leaving her to face the harsh winter on her own.

Sawyer went into the mountains to escape his past, and when he stumbles upon Lucy in the middle of a blizzard, he doesn't think he's ready for the responsibility having another person in his life will bring.

Only, Lucy isn't as helpless as she first appeared, and as they brave the long winter together, Sawyer will soon come to learn that even at the end of the world, there's more to life than just survival.

strangers to lovers short story

This is a sweet little romance during the zombie apocalypse although we're just yold about the zombies and only really see society fall in proprietary. Women are a commodity and so a young girl is taken by her Uncle to a cabin in the woods to be raised out of harms way until she's an adult and her uncle goes missing. She soldiers on in survivalist mode when she has an accident and a mysterious stranger finds her and nurses her back to health. Tensions rises and heat bubbles in this slow burn HFN romance.
I did like it and like I said, its a "sweet" romance, so very clean but I did walk away with a few questions that weren't answered in the first book and there's no epilogue - so maybe they'll pop up later in the series?

Sweet story

This book is a lovely romance about first love. The zombies don't really feature in the story.

The story is heartbreaking!

I loved this story! It’s a heartbreaking and it all so a little sweet also. I fell in love listening to this audiobook. I think this story shows that there are still good people in the new world. Kate L Mary has a scary imagination and a fantastic way of telling a story. Her stories always kept me on my toes. Her stories have me scared sometimes and laughing out loud other times. She is definitely a very elaborate writer that has you so involved with the story that you can see the characters and story in your head.
The narrator does a fantastic job with the characters and voices of each character making it easy to distinguish between the characters. She also does a great job with both male and female voices! I think she is fabulous!

Loved it!

This is the 3rd in this series that I have listened to. Each book is different stories during this time of a zombie apocalypse. This a sad and sweet story in one. I love how the author makes each story unique and showing a different situation across the country of how people survived or didn't. Great job and so happy I found a new author. The narrator did a great job!

Troubled waters!

We are treated to a delightful, sweet love story. Kate L. Mary once again performs a linguistic spa treatment to our troubled hearts and minds. I’ve been a solid fan of Ms. Mary since my first introduction to her endless talent. Every book hits home for me. As I listen, I recall past friendships and relationships. Half the time I sit with a silly grin on my face, my mind picturing the scene, and more often than not, feeling the emotion of the moment. That’s an extraordinary talent for a writer to possess, no doubt enhanced by Amber Morton’s stunning narration. Contrary to the gushing, Ms. Mary may have stumbled slightly this time around. Cliff hangers, abrupt endings, and loose ends have left a little sour taste in fan’s mouths. Although this does seem a bit unusual for this author. The stories in this series did seem to be stand-alone novellas, so I’m unsure if there will be a sequel to this tale. It certainly deserves one.

Great Read

More Than Survival: A Zombie Apocalypse Love Story, Book One was another great read by Kate L. Mary. When the deadly zombie virus swept the country, Lucy was only nine years old. The virus killed most of the population and turned them into zombies. Her parents both died during the outbreak and she has lived in seclusion with her Uncle Seamus. Seamus is a prepare who was ready for the end of the world. Eleven years after moving with Seamus, he goes missing and Lucy must put her skills to test. Sawyer stumbles upon Lucy while she gets stuck in a blizzard. Sawyer and Lucy end up braving the cold winter together and grow closer because of it. I really enjoyed reading Lucy and Sawyer’s story and I can’t wait to read more by Kate L. Mary.

Nice story..

I loved the tale. Love story in a zombie apocalypse. Which is nice, instead of the munching, death that are usually the normal. Narrator was good. I highly recommend this book.
