Synopsis: Amber Tate believes the worst thing she’ll suffer in life is dealing with the unrequited love she feels for her brother’s best friend, Rylen Fite. She also believes war is something unfortunate that happens places far, far away from her rural Nevada town. She’s wrong on both counts.
When an unknown organization meticulously bombs major cities in the United States and across the globe, a trickle-down effect spreads to remaining towns at an alarming speed—everything from food and water sources to technology and communications are compromised. Without leadership, the nation is split between paralysis and panic, but Amber isn’t one to hide or watch helplessly. She’s determined to put her nursing skills to use, despite the danger, even if it means working alongside the man she can never have.
In this first installment of NY Times bestselling author, Wendy Higgins’s debut New Adult series, a frighteningly realistic apocalyptic America is brought to life, entwined with searing romantic tension that will leave you eager for more.

Synopsis: USA Today and New York Times bestselling author, Wendy Higgins, brings you the gripping, sensual conclusion to her apocalyptic trilogy.
Amber Tate never dreamed their heart-wrenching escape from the enemy’s attack would lead them to the most beautiful place she’s ever seen, marred by one ugly fact; it’s under enemy control. Like everywhere else in the world, Elmendorf military base in Alaska has been captured, and it’s time to take it back—all of it—one base, one city at a time. After losing so much, Amber clings to the only precious person she has left and vows to sacrifice everything to help save the Earth.
Remy Haines is a lover, not a fighter, so when she finds herself in enemy territory, expected to feign allegiance while gathering intel for the rebel cause, she’s never been more out of her element. Tensions only increase when her feelings for Jacob “Tater” Tate won’t go away, and the enemy’s leader takes an interest in her. She’s torn between what her heart wants, and what she knows she should do. As for what her body needs…well, it’s always had a mind of its own.
Anything Wendy Higgins makes me fall in love with books again. Which is why when I got offered the opportunity to read her newest series, Unknown, I took it.
I am so glad I took the chance because Amber Tate (Pepper) and Rylen Fite are my new favorite book couple... Granted my favorite book couples is probably a hundred by now. I feel as though I grew up right next to Amber, Remy, Rylen, and Tater. They have wormed their way into my hearts just as the aliens did.
Conspiracy theories should not be theories. I believe in them and so that means they shouldn't be considered theories. I loved the series because they brought to life the Paranormal world I wished existed. Minus the creepy characters and the aliens. But I kind of fell in love with one of the aliens as what they did was just pure sexy.
That should feel so wrong but it doesn't.
Thank the heavens for Wendy Higgins for bringing to life some of the sexiest books yet making it seem so wrong to think that. I love her books and if you are a paranormal fan as I am with a few hints of romance, this is the series for you to try.
Trust me on this and you won't regret it.
Blog you later, awesome book nerds.
