3.0

Dr. Indiana Jones (really) has discovered the cure to the plague that's spreading, wiping out the whole city. Her only hope to get the cure somewhere it can be mass-produced is in the last four surviving members of the military team sent to enforce the quarantine.

This is a great idea, a doomsday themed reverse harem romance, but it was executed very poorly. This doesn't spend any real time in the characters' heads and they all seem rather flat, doing and being what the plot needs them to do or be at any time. The romance is non-existent, replaced with lewd comments and thoughts instead of building anything substantial. There are gaping plot holes (how did they get an entire city quarantined before anybody infected got out?) and annoyances--I find it hard to believe that in an end of the world situation absolutely everybody would get hung up on Indiana Jones's name, it's just not...and all of her siblings are named after other places, her parents just goofed--the why her mom named her this mystery is just annoying.

This wasn't terrible, I liked it enough to skim to the end, but not enough to care about continuing the series. I got this book free, so I'm not disappointed, but I wouldn't suggest paying for it.
