Book Review: Gridlock

 


In a dystopian world where the rich get richer and the poor struggle to survive, Tessa is a mad scientist. Or, more accurately, she’s a pissed off one. Her father was killed for sport by the wealthy and ever since, Tessa’s had one goal and one goal only -- revenge.

Wanting to watch the world burn, she creates a virus no one has ever seen before. One that will turn the evil rich into mindless zombies. There’s only one problem. The virus doesn’t work on the one man Tessa wishes she didn’t know all too well: Rory.

When her plans go awry, Rory and Tessa are forced to work together to survive. But can survival ever turn into something more?


My Review

Tessa is a mad scientist. One that has revenge on her mind. I sure do not want to get on her bad side. Rory may be one of the rich, but he is not stuck up like the rest. Thus, the reason that I warmed up to Rory right away. I felt a charisma about him that made him very attractive. For this reason, I don't blame Tessa for getting with Rory. 

Don't be fooled by the cover. This book is still a spicy, quick read. Which I would not expect anything less from Torri. Despite Tessa and Rory starting out as enemies, I felt the physical attraction to one another. Undead or human...love is love and when the chemistry is there, you go for it! So come get your zombie fix with Gridlock by Torri Heat!

  Edna and Leo, a perpetually warring, tyrannical pair in their 80s, begin wintering In Mexico, where they abandon their usual prudence to embrace adventure and a bevy of sketchy new friends. Soon, Edna adopts a pair of shyster builders whom she trusts over her own architect-daughter Elizabeth, and a farcical house results. Blithely indifferent to the calamities that result, the pair refuse all help from their too-compliant only child. Later, following her mother’s sudden death, Elizabeth’s wise, principled father attempts to fill his late wife’s shoes with a string of loopy, live-in housekeepers―with privileges, he hopes. Before it is over the Mexican escapade will bring down the kind of disasters commonly found in pulp fiction. Why can’t Elizabeth stop any of this from happening?
