This Would Be Paradise (Book 1)-A Zombie Novel

Waking up to a pounding hangover is bad enough, but when the world outside has devolved into a horrifying, flesh-eating nightmare, it’s a whole new level of hell. Trapped in New Orleans during Mardi Gras, college student Bailey is thrust into a fight for survival against a rapidly spreading viral outbreak turning people into mindless, violent predators. Can she and her friends navigate the chaos, outsmart the infected, and escape a city consumed by an apocalyptic terror?

I groaned and rolled over on the well-used, sagging hotel bed. Thoughts about all the people who slept right where I was laying made my skin crawl like imaginary bed-bugs running amok. The sun had managed to peek through the ratty curtains of my once-clean hotel room, disturbing my alcohol induced stupor. I tried to swallow, but my mouth seemed drier than the Nevada desert.

Cracking a tired eye open, I found the other twin bed empty. Zoe, my dumbass friend must have stumbled home with a guy we met last night, while I managed to drag myself back to the room. What was his name again? Mark? Matt? I should probably learn to get that straight just in case I had to testify in court when she eventually disappeared after a nightly escapade gone wrong, and then turned up in a dumpster behind Denny's.

The clock read 12:35 PM and I knew Zoe would be staggering back soon, with yet another story to tell. Then in response I would give her the spiel again; the one that started with, "This is how you end up dead in a ditch, spread out in various plastic bags."
