Edward
Grey is a medical student by day, necromancer by night. He lives alone with the
first zombie he ever raised, his childhood cat, Boo. Edward’s life is simple:
studying medicine, training his necromantic powers with his mentor, Mariel, and
having weekly dinners with his parents. When he finds a very attractive corpse
in a park and brings it home to reanimate, he accidentally creates a sassy,
free-willed zombie who believes Edward is the one who murdered him.
With
no memory of his former life, Edward names the zombie Kit and tries to win his
trust. Kit slowly adjusts to his new un-life with Edward’s help, though he’s
still suspicious of Edward’s role in his death and is convinced that Edward is
hiding his former identity. Edward is very attracted to Kit, but understands
why Kit doesn’t trust him. As they become closer to one another, Kit turns to
Edward for comfort and love. The fragile trust they’ve built together will be
tested when Kit unexpectedly regains his memory and seeks revenge on his murderers.

Excerpt:
Kit took one
look at the concoction and raised his eyebrows in disbelief and disgust. “What
is that supposed to be?”
“It’s your food.
Mmm! Delicious, brains! Zombies love brains!” I could see right away that I had
gone too far.
“I am not a dog or
a child, Edward. And I don’t appreciate your stereotyping.”
Oh, great. I had
offended a zombie. What a schmuck. “I’m sorry, Kit. Won’t you at least try it?”
“Is that a slice
of brain?”
“…yes.
Technically. It’s not human!”
“Oh, it’s a brain,
but it’s not human. That makes it all better. What’s in the rest of it?”
“The rest of the
cow?” No, this was not going at all well. I pleaded. I cajoled. I begged.
