Book Description

***The paperback version contains Sundered, Bound, and Dauntless.***

Praise for Sundered

"I was completely blindsided by events in this story. Even now, I can't stop thinking about it."
Author of "Until Dawn: Last Light", Jennifer Simas


"Full of juicy zombie action meshed with romance to make your heart break.
The pace is thrilling and the action doesn't stop!"                                               
Author of "The Guardian", CJ Gosling

Overview of Sundered

A single, miracle drug that will save the world from disease
and obesity. If the side effects are ignored.


A young married couple desperate to reach their dreams of
having a family. If they can pay the price.


Welcome to a new world that will test those who are still
human, pitting them against monsters who were once family, friends, and lovers.

5 Star Reviews

". . .an apocalyptic world that immediately feels plausible in these days of pharmaceutical "miracles" and quick cures gone wrong. . . .a fearless and unflinching launch into darker issues and terrible choices. There is great depth in this authors work."                                                  
Author of Brilliant Prey, Brenda Wallace

"The author has deftly woven all of these strands together into an intriguing and sometimes poignant tale of love, loss, and survival."        
Merry Simmons (Reviewer)

If you couldn't get enough of "The Walking Dead",  or Amanda Hocking's "Hollowland" Sundered is the perfect fix for your Zombie-ish cravings!

5.0 out of 5 stars A must read! Can't wait to read them all! October 9, 2011
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I've always been into paranormal romance novels, but never really the zombie types. Shannon Mayer has changed this for me. Sundered was absolutely phenomenal. I couldn't get enough of it. When I finished the last page I was left slack jawed and desperately craving more of this well-written story. The anticipation was pure torture, I just had to know what happened next. The teaser for book two, Bound, only increased that torture.

The main character, Mara, was very believable. Her compassion for her husband, especially toward the end, was so touching. In all honesty, I'm usually the type that figures out what the author is up to before anything actually happens in the story. I'm happy to say that that wasn't the case this time! I was completely blindsided by events in this story. Even now, I can't stop thinking about it.

I'm looking forward to starting book two in the trilogy. I know it will be just as good. I'd expect nothing less from this author! HIGHLY recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great romance novel September 3, 2011
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I loved this book! I'm a big fan of Romance novels so after a while, the books are a little repetitive. Sundered is very different from what I usually read. The book really centered around the heroine, a strong protagonist who doesn't wait around to be saved by the male character. It has the element of surprise, and cliff hanger that leaves you craving for more! Book is excellently written!

3.0 out of 5 stars Left wanting but addicted! April 6, 2012
Format:Kindle Edition
I purchased this book not knowing it was a novella, nor a self-published work. I definitely reads as a professionally edited novel, yet way too short for my taste.

Having said all that...I was hooked. I finished reading the novella in four hours and immediately bought the second one. It would have received four stars had the protag been a little more likable (she gets better in the next two, so definitely give the series a chance), and hadn't ended so abruptly!

I agree. I came here based on a friend's recommendation, but I hesitate to buy this book without knowing what it's about.
