My Zombie Valentine

In January I'm going to be part of a fun anthology with Katie MacAlister, Angie Fox, and Lisa Cach called "My Zombie Valentine." As you can probably guess from the title it'll be four romantic comedies having to do with zombies!

I just got the cover today and thought I'd share.

FOUR WOMEN ARE ABOUT TO DIG UP THE TRUTH

Tired of boyfriends who drain you dry? Sick of guys who stay out all night howling at the moon? You can do better. Some men want you not only for your body, but your brains. Especially your brains.

It’s true! There are men out there who care—early-rising, down-to-earth, indefatigable men who’ll follow you for miles. They’ll take the time to surprise you, over and over. One sniff of that perfume, and you’ll have to use a shotgun to fight them off. And then, once you get together, all they want is to share a nice meal. And another. And another.

Romeo and Juliet, eat your hearts out.

My story is actually a little different, I think, than the others, in which I believe the zombies might be the heroes. Mine is a campy homage to the zombie horror genre - taking place on the set of a low-budget zombie film. (Probably not surprising to those who know my love of cheesy horror movies!) The zombies in my story are definitely the bad guys!

It was definitely a fun story to write!! Can't wait to see what people think! :)
