Tara West
Genre: PNR
Release Date: July 17, 2017
Book Description:
Two zombies and one skeleton on a road trip to Vegas to kill a witch, stop an apocalypse, and rescue their friends from the belly of a shadow dragon.
Nothing weird about that.
Five things I learned while being a fallen angel zombie:
1. Duct tape works better than embalming.
2. Alopecia is not my favorite hairstyle.
3. Fried demons smell like bacon.
4. This brain breath is affecting my love life.
5. Nothing ruins a honeymoon like an apocalypse.
Excerpt 1:
Our
elevator had dropped us off smack in the middle of what could have only been
described as an undead battlefield. We were in an old cemetery shrouded in a
thin mist and faintly illuminated by moonlight. Gravesites had been unearthed
and tombstones turned to rubble while grims and ghosters decapitated demonic
creatures that came at them from all sides. And was it just me, or was it
uncommonly hot for early spring in Seattle?
Margo Styles, a ghoster on the elite
Alpha Squad, who looked like a Barbie and screamed like a banshee, shoved a
big-ass machete into my arms. “Arm yourself.” She drew in a deep breath before
driving a hatchet into some pale creature’s skull.
My stomach roiled when his brain
exploded in a fountain of green ooze, splattering Margo’s face. I wasn’t crazy
about Margo, and I’d wanted to dump a plate of caviar over her snooty head a
time or two, but I wouldn’t wish a mouthful of demon sludge on my worst enemy.
Aedan pushed me behind him, slicing
off a demon’s head before I had a chance to blink. The rest of the ghosters on my
squad somehow found weapons and were joining in the action. I spun in a slow
circle, nearly dropping the heavy machete on my foot. I could barely lift it.
How the hell was I supposed to cut off heads with it? All while wearing a
wedding gown and heels.
I ducked under Aedan’s arm as he
decapitated a demon with spikes coming out of his skull. “Margo, what is
happening?” I hollered, unable to keep the shrill rattle out of my voice.

I have to say I absolutely loved going to this place the other night. The people that work at Chicago event space here were trying to create an optimal dinner experience while making your choices their priority. I would definitely recommend this venue for any kind of fancy event.
