ZOMROMCOM
A paranormal romantic comedy in which a human and her handsome vampire neighbor team up to defend their city from a zombie outbreak.
ZOMROMCOM is exactly what you'd expect from its title and more, a Zombie RomCom that delivers on the promise of laugh-out-loud comedy, teary-eyed sentiment, mildly terrifying situations, and heart-stopping feels - sometimes all at once. ZOMROMCOM is The Last of Us meets Jenna Levine's My Roommate is a Vampire, complete with Olivia Dade's signature writing style, and is ultimately a monster-filled adventure that's also hilariously and heartwarmingly human.
Eden "Edie" Brandstrup is dumbfounded when, while attempting to save her seemingly harmless human neighbor from the first major zombie breach in two decades, she is saved by him instead. As it turns out, he's actually a super-old, super-surly vampire. And for all her neighbor's newly revealed cynicism and lethality, Gaston "Max" Boucher is unexpectedly insistent that she stay in his safety bunker until the breach is resolved.
But Edie can't risk more innocent people getting killed - 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 helping her save the world - but all their dangerous plans could end their future before it even begins. Does having a love worth living for mean having a love you'd die for? And in a world that grows deadlier by the minute, will Edie let herself love Max anyway?
Olivia Dade grew up an undeniable nerd, prone to ignoring the world around her as she read any book she could find. Her favorites, though, were always, always romances. As an adult, she earned an M.A. in American history and worked in a variety of jobs that required the donning of actual pants: Colonial Williamsburg interpreter, high school teacher, academic tutor, and (of course) librarian. Now, however, she has finally achieved her lifelong goal of wearing pajamas all day as a hermit-like writer and enthusiastic hag. She currently lives outside Stockholm with her delightful family and their ever-burgeoning collection of books.
