When the pandemic hit, nobody was expecting it to be as bad as it was. The economy barely survived the lockdowns, but it staggered along until civil unrest shattered people’s hope of better times to come. With it being an election year, more and more Americans were waking up to the idea that they truly were behind the curve. The hope was if they did not get sick, run out of money, or could avoid violent mobs, they would be fine.

As a prepper, Grayson Rowan was prepared for almost anything...anything other than being totally alone when the sh*t hits the fan. While he sat back and watched the US rattle swords with Korea, play chicken with Russia, and strong-arm China, he felt sure if the lights went out that he and his family would be ready and safe. What he wasn't prepared for was his family not being home if it ever happened. Olivia Rowan is with her sisters, Gabby and Emma, on a girls-only trip to Myrtle Beach. Graysie Rowan, a freshman at university, just wants to go home.

Great series until book 3
The 3rd book in the series closely followed 299 days in that there were several side stories that bears no relevance to the main character. In book 3 the author injected new characters which encompassed Portland's LBGT community but it had absolutely nothing to do with rescuing the baby. I listen to every chapter about Patrick and the community in Portland, however, after having finished the book I wish I would have fast forwarded through those chapters because they were a complete waste of my time and added no value to the book. Based on the format of book 3 alone I would not recommend this series

Disappointing end to the story!
Very much enjoyed the first two books. They were well developed and left you wanting more. While I was satisfied with the close out of the Julie storyline, the author introduced a new tangents that seemed to only be a filler that was under developed and not well thought out. Also a few main characters were also left unresolved. Again 5 stars to the first two books but this was a disappointing end to a trilogy I had enjoyed.

Almost a waste of a credit
The Patrick and grant matson threads are extraneous and a waste of listening minutes. So much more could have been done fleshing out the rescue. The Barbara Rachel and or Steve storylines could have easily replaced the wasted minutes used for Patrick and Grant and thus added value to the overall story. Nice try Shelby, while you writing style has promise, you underwhelmed in this third instalment.

Excellent read
All 3 books in the series are excellent, I would recommend it to anyone but especially to that special person in your life to nudge them into a prepared mindset. Shelby did an excellent job, in my mind, of portraying a woman’s view. It gave me as a man a better perspective of how my wife views my obsession.

I devoured this story.
Honestly, it was refreshing to hear about this subject from a womans perspective. I love the post collapse subject, but sometimes it tends to be so much about us testosterone fueled shoot'm up guys. This is a real look at so many things we don't think of and an intriguing story too. I really like how it is briefly tied into the 299 Days series; just enough and doesn't rely on it. I really wish there was more to this story. Once you go through this trilogy, you will want more.

Another great book by "Shelby"!!
Love the way this book ties other aspects of people's lives together. There's about 3 or 4 subplots that address how different things go down.
