Teaming up with your neighbor during a zombie outbreak is a no-brainer, but if it turns out he’s a vampire . . . the stakes couldn’t be higher, in this infectious new paranormal romance from the USA Today bestselling author of Spoiler Alert.When Edie Brandstrup attempts to save her sweet, seemingly harmless human neighbor from the first major zombie breach in two decades, she’s stunned to be saved by him—and his ridiculously large sword—instead. As it turns out, he's actually a super-old, super-surly vampire. But for all her neighbor's newly revealed cynicism and lethality, Gaston "Max" Boucher (yes, Gaston) is unexpectedly protective. He wants her to stay in his safety bunker until the breach is resolved. Edie can’t risk more innocent people getting killed, though—and Max won’t let her save them alone.As they unravel a sinister conspiracy to set zombies loose on the world (again), the duo meet a host of lovable allies and discover they're not the only ones willing to fight for the future of humanity. Despite the awful timing, Edie finds herself falling for the vampire who’s helping her save the world . . . but all their dangerous plans could end their future before it even begins. As she and Max battle side by side, Edie must decide whether having a love worth living for also means having a love you'd die for—and, in a world that grows deadlier by the minute, whether that’s a risk she’s willing to take.

0Thank you to Netgalley, Olivia Dade, and Berkley for the E-ARC!
Zomromcom was my first Olivia Dade book and I had so much fun reading it! Even being 400 pages, I binge read it and finished it in one night. This story was filled with romance, zombies, humour and a grumpy vampire.
When there's a breach in the wall that contains the zombies, Edie is forced to hide with her neighbour in his underground basement in hopes of survival. He isn't who she once thought he was though, in fact, he isn't even human! All this time, the neighbour she thought was named Chad, a bro with not a lot going on, is actually called Gaston Max Boucher, and is a vampire. Even with her reluctance, Edie teams up with Max and together they work to figure out how the zombies got out and where to find the appropriate authorities to report the danger.
If you're a fan of grumpy x sunshine, well I have the perfect book for you! Edie, our FMC, never lets go of her kindness, even when faced with the potential end of the world and terrifying zombies. I'm a sucker for a sunshine character so I absolutely adored exploring the world with Edie. Then there's Max, who couldn't care less about anyone else, but intends on following Edie and making sure no harm comes to her. Their banter, Edie's remixes of the Beauty and the Beast Gaston song, and their care for each other was so fun to read.
I can't wait for this book and the eventual sequel to release! I had so much fun diving into this world and it's characters. While reading I kept getting the Gaston song stuck in my head, and now it's back yet again!
