I am such a huge fan of
the Scorpius Syndrome series by Rebecca Zanetti that as soon as I finish one
book, I’m looking for the next. I couldn’t wait to read the third book, JUSTICE ASCENDING and
it did not disappoint.***purchased for my own personal reading but sharing an honest and unscripted review
Blurb for JUSTICE
ASCENDING:
Before surviving the
Scorpius bacterium, Tace Justice was a good ole Texas cowboy who served his
country and loved his mama. After Scorpius, the world became dark, dangerous,
and deadly—and so did he. The Vanguard medic is stronger, faster, and smarter
than before, but he’s lost the line between right and wrong. His passion is
absolute, and when he focuses it on one woman, there’s no turning back for
either of them…
Sami Steel has been
fighting to survive right alongside Tace, convincing the Vanguard soldiers
she’s one of them. In truth, Sami is a former hacker turned government agent
who worked at The Bunker, where scientists stored both contaminants and cures.
Only she knows the location, and she’s not telling. Yet when sexual fire
explodes between her and Tace, she’ll face even that hell again to save him.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Tace
Justice is trying to survive. True everyone else at Vanguard is trying to
survive as well, but Tace is facing something no one else has knowledge of among
the survivors of Scorpius…unusual and dangerous symptoms. He fears telling his
commander and friend, Jax Mercury, for fear Jax will order him killed. The same
goes with talking to Lynne or Victoria, both doctors with the possibilities of
answers, because he knows they’d tell their men and he’d be dead for sure. But
there is one person he can’t hide from…Sami Steel. When scouting, they have to
have each other’s backs and if his symptoms flair while doing his job and he
fails to have her back, Sami could die. If that happened, Tace wouldn’t care if
his fellow soldiers wanted him dead, he’d deserve it. If something happened to
Sami, he wouldn’t want to live.
Sami
has a very big secret…a secret that now has to be told in order to save Tace.
The idea of losing Tace threatens to rip out her heart but not nearly as much
as having to reveal what she knows, what she has lied about, and returning to the Bunker terrifies her, if she survives Jax Mercury's anger.
Now
the Vanguard soldiers have to figure out a way to gain access to the Bunker,
find the formula—if it exists—that might save Tace’s life. No choice but to
team up with the Mercs, Sami risks everything to find a cure for Tace. It’s
amazing what falling in love with a crazy cowboy will make a girl do.
Rebecca
Zanetti has created such an amazing cast of characters in the Scorpius Syndrome
series that we can’t help but want more, and more. I’m happy to say that she
does plan at least three more books. I’m very excited to hear that because
JUSTICE ASCENDING, filled with even more action and exciting discoveries, still manages to leave us with more unanswered questions, while moving just a tad closer to learning what other secrets and horrors still lay
undiscovered in this post-apocalyptic society. Tace and Sami played
important roles in the first two novels but this time, it’s their turn and
their banter, battles with each other, and surrender to their desires makes
this one so worth reading. We see sides of these two characters that endear
them to us even more and keep us on the edge of our seats with worry that things
will go south real fast, if things don’t go right.
I
highly recommend JUSTICE ASCENDING, book three in the Scorpius Syndrome series
by Rebecca Zanetti as well as the entire series starting with the novella, SCORPIUS
RISING. Even if you’re not a fan of dystopian romance, the characters alone
are worth reading this series and who knows, you might become a huge fan just
like me.
Happy
Reading Everyone!
JUSTICE
ASCENDING, a Scorpius Syndrome novel by Rebecca Zanetti, Zebra-Kensington,

Barnes
& Noble, and Kobobooks.
