Sheep Book Review: Rebel Heart by Lizzy Ford

Rebel Heart
by Lizzy Ford
ebook, 254 pages
Published May 1st 2012 by Createspace


After nuclear strikes cripple the East Coast in the year 2135, security expert Lana is alone with a secret she must protect at all costs, even if it means placing her life – and her heart – in the hands of Brady, the compelling, dangerous leader of the rebellion.

As a member of the lower class, Brady serves two masters: the rebellion and the regular army. It will take all his connections and strength to protect Lana and keep from falling in love with her.


Rebel Heart takes place in the future when the country has been split by a civil war and once again war is imminent. As nuclear strikes cripple the East Coast Lana is whisked away to a federal bunker to help coordinate the efforts of defense and preserve the countries resources. 


In the course of her duties she has been given a guardian, Brady, to keeps in contact via radio transmission, who helps keep her grounded and fills the emotional need for contact she can trust. Lana learns a terrible secret and strikes out on her own to reach a safe place constantly hunted. 

There is plenty of adrenalin pumping action, surprises, betrayals, and a little taste of smexy thrown in for good measure. This was a fun read, although I will admit that the beginning of the book seemed a bit abrupt with Lana thrown right into the fire and I would have liked a little more buildup and world building, but I will say that by the end of the tale I was hooked and came away feeling very satisfied. 

I would recommend this book to those who enjoy a lot of action with a dystopian flare of the possibility of what if and a little romance thrown in the mix. I purchased this book from Amazon.
