Life doesn't always hand you things that you understand right away. Often times we have difficulty adjusting not knowing that we aren't meant to do fit in but born to stand out as a different breed.. that's where Zero comes into place. You'll breeze through the pages of this cohesively written book of one of the coldest females you will ever meet. Don't sleep on this book, you definitely won't be disappointed. Be advised,things aren't always what they seem.

Didn't realize this was a short story until I reached the end. I enjoyed the story, it started off very good, then about halfway through I felt it kind of dragged. I was ready to get back to the good stuff how the beginning had me all in. The author gave enough hints to let you know who the dirty bird was. It ends with you "knowing" who was foul but before the others learn the truth. I will probably read the next installment, especially if its as short as this one was. The main characters go from juvenile age to young adult to give an idea of what maturity level the story will capture. It is still a decent read for the 18 and up crowd.

Zero Degrees captured my attention from the first page. I immediately developed feelings of sympathy for Zeaira and I liked her even more when she became 'Zero'. The story flowed from scene to scene and the non stop drama, twist ad turns and OMG moments kept me on the edge of my seat. It was a quick read and I didn't want it to end. I'm looking forward to reading part 2 and I definitely recommend 'Zero Degrees'.

“Zero Degrees” by Nika Michelle and Leo Sullivan was a good read. It tells the story of Zeaira Rowe, a young girl forced to grow up quickly due to the circumstances surrounding her childhood.
The storyline moved at a good pace. The characters were developed. Zeaira was definitely naïve at times. I don’t know how she didn’t see the snake that was right in front of her! I’m looking forward to reading part 2 soon.

Zero Degrees
The cover of this book attracted my attention. I read the synopsis to see what it was about, and I was hooked. I 1-clicked and immediately started reading. I didn't stop until I was done. The women in this book all went through some things. You have to read it to understand what I am talking about. This is definitely a must read. I am going to read parts 2 & 3 as well.

I loved Zero Degrees from the beginning to the very end. I liked the characters in this book; I think Buff may have been one of my favorites. Zero Degrees brought out all kinds of emotions in me; it made me sad, angry and at times happy. I didn't like how short the book was or the ending, I was craving for more but I look forward to reading part 2.

Leo Sullivan family has done it again. This was a page turner from the very first page. It has so many twists and turns that you try to keep up and something else happens. So everyone who hasn't read this book needs to stop what you are doing and get your 1-click on you will not be disappointed.
