In a world gone mad, what do you do? Why kill a bunch of zombies, then shack up with two hotties, of course!!

We meet Helen in Base, the first book based in this post-apocalyptic world created by Cathleen Ross. In Base, Helen is tired, starved and fighting off braindeads to stay alive as well as protect her baby elephant. There's a fantastic scene in Base where Helen is given the lay of the land, what's what in this new world order and whaddya know, she's totally on board with it. In fact, she's so on board, she's doubled her fun with two guys we find out in this short to be Peter and Adam. There's also an absolutely hilarious scene in Base where something happens to Peter during some sexy times shenanigans. Heat is Helen's story.

I have liked Helen right from the start. I liked her when I met her in Base and I continue to like her now. She is brave, independent and pragmatic in a no nonsense kind of way. She's managed to maintain her sense of humour in this crazy world she finds herself living in. She knows the world has gone to hell and she needs protection. She's okay with that, in fact, she's so okay with it, she's picked herself two hot alpha males to keep her safe. Way to go, Helen!!

Both Peter and Adam are great. Hot, hunky and sexy, oh, and also sex starved, which is exactly what Helen needed to help her get over her ordeal before they rescued her.

This is a quick, short, sexy read. It's great fun and full of laughs. You don't need to read Base, in order to read this story. Ms Ross does a great job setting up the back story for Helen with brevity and succinctness. That said, read Base anyway. You get a very, very sexy Navy Captain in Base and he's worth the read to get to know.
