The Hell Virus #1
Catching Hell
The HLV virus, dubbed Hell Virus by the survivors, wiped out ninety percent of the population. Running low on supplies, Alyssa has to leave the safety of her sanctuary to find food. She’s ill-equipped to deal with a SHTF situation, and she’s nearly raped on her first run. A small squad of military men save her and take her in, with the stipulation she becomes a fully functioning member of their team. She wants to learn how to take care of herself, but she also finds herself wanting to take care of the soldiers in creative and unexpected ways. Life without pleasure is pointless, but when she’s already lost everything else, can she risk losing her heart to the group?
This is the bundled collection of the completed serial. Alyssa is learning about survival and how to love more than one person. If the idea of a polyamorous relationship with multiple men bothers you, this probably isn’t the series for you. If you enjoy sex with your survival, and you’d like to indulge in the fantasy of having a group of hot military men at your command, you’ll probably enjoy this story. Guaranteed happily ever after with no cliffhangers.
Be aware this is definitely on the steamy side and appropriate for 18+ only. It’s a new adult title and not intended for young’uns.
**Includes an excerpt of another Aurelia Skye title**

The story follows Alyssa as she navigates a post apocalyptic world on her own, after her entire family is wiped out by the deadly Hell Virus, as she calls it. There were several waves of the hell virus and a mutated vaccine, and only 10% of the population around the world has survived.
Alyssa has lived in the basement of her family home, but must venture out into the streets to scavenge for food and necessary items. She comes across a big box store, and whilst loading up on her items, she gets herself into a situation. Enter our five male characters. The men swoop in and save Alyssa. She goes with them back to their base.
Lyss has an immediate attraction to some of the men, but initially struggles with this, because of the polygamous nature of it all. One of the men is fatally injured when they go on a run for supplies, and as Lyss holds on to him in his last moments, she makes the decision to not let the old world’s rules dictate her life in this new world.
The relationships all proceed at their own pace. Once everything seems to be running smoothly, a protagonist is introduced. Loyalty and trust are tested, with Lyss eventually being betrayed by her men. In her attempt to deal with the situation, her life is put in jeopardy and she has to find a way to save herself.
I honestly enjoyed this book. The authors did an excellent job of explaining all of the subtle details, like the motivations behind certain choices, and gave enough detail for each man that I felt that they all had clear character boundaries and didn’t blur into each other. The handling of the embarrassing and awkward menage conversations was done so well. I remember at one point thinking, how exactly are they going to handle this conversation without it sounding amateurish, and then being very happy with the result.
I definitely recommend this book for anyone who likes a good Reverse Harem and/or Post Apocalyptic world.

Better than expected
OverAll this was much better than I expected it to be. There were a couple issues, but not enough to disappoint. I think for a virgin, her language and actions in the shower her first time were pretty unbelievable. Heck, not many experienced women would have said and done that. The book did good about tackling what would be a core issue for most harems. Jealousy. I'm not sure how they pulled it off in the way that they did. Instead, I would have expected the guys to have a conversation first and agree to share because of the scarcity of women. If any guy would have made the demands she did, we would be screaming sexist pig. Most reverse harems approach it with the guys being on board with sharing from the beginning and convincing the woman. That makes more sense. I personally think the sharing demands should be made by the ones doing the sharing. Otherwise it just seems trashy. They manage to put it off and by the end it works. Of course, I'm not sure I could have ever forgiven guys that broke the trust repeatedly like those two did. It's almost impossible to get trust back. The fact that they repeatedly didn't believe her when she has never lied to them would have ensured they never shared my bed again. But to each their own. I also thought it ended kind of abruptly. It would have been nice to know where they went or settled. Despite these issues, it was enjoyable.

A post apocalyptic story that focuses on Alyssa, she's lost her whole family. When she ventures out of her home for the first time, Alyssa encounters a life threatening g situation and is rescued by five guys who take her into their small group. Over time she comes to have feelings for most of them. When one is mortally wounded, Alyssa starts to reassess a few things. When someone else is added to the group she realizes those she relied on have done the ultimate betrayal of not trusting or believing her and siding with the new person, and put Alyssa's life in danger.
I absolutely loved this, I must admit part six of the story had my heart breaking for Alyssa and I could feel her righteous anger, and this was a testament to Aurelia's awesome writing skill. I had already purchased five of the seven parts before I received the complete series as an ARC, I have also written reviews on each part I purchased individually as well.

March 14, 2017DNF. Two of the three heroes choose to believe manipulative OW over the h - nearly causing h's death/r@pe. One of the guys even wants to bring OW into their poly relationship bcos she reminds him of his dead wife that he loved only h says no:/ IMO h should have let both those guys go...

I downloaded this book as it is a RH book, and I love reverse harem stories.
I got into the book pretty much straight away, however there were a couple of twists that I just did not see coming! These is a lot of sex and almost kind of instalove, but also the story was not as predictable as I thought it was going to be and was very happily surprised.
I really rather enjoyed this book a lot, more than I thought I was going to, so much that i downloaded books two and three. The characters were great, especially the heroine who was actually rather feisty and had a back bone. This is post apocalyptic in nature, a great storyline and a very enjoyable read indeed

This sexy reverse-harem gem caught my eye on Goodreads. That cover! A little bit of everything, amiright? YUM. Of course, you’re not supposed to judge a book by anything so superfluous as a cover…but most people do.
Sorry, guys. I saw four hotties, a badass chick packing a GOLDEN GUN, and an apocalyptic background and was sold before page 1. It just screamed, “I AM UNIQUE!”
…and it was!

Wrong book attached to the link
I've been trying to read the series Hell Virus but each time I attempt to read it (i tried book 1 and 3) I get a totally different book about a virgin and commander. I'm fed up. Please fix!

Different in such a good way
I really enjoyed how unique this story is. It took traditional methods of apocalypse and added a twist I was not expecting. Love it!

The HLV virus or hell virus has killed 90% of the earth's population in the first wave when the meds came out to help even more dies.
The world as we know it is over and not all that are left are the kind of people.
Poor Alyssa is trying to live in this world and is saved by a group of exmilatery men that have all grouped together.
Alyssa falls for 3 of the men but when a new comer shows up she is betrayed. Can she open her heart up again?
Great story lots of action. If your into or ok with mmmf storylines then this should be a great match for you.

In a post apocalyptic world, Alyssa is trying to find her way, but when she ventured outside for the first time, it's nearly her last. While being assaulted, five guys come to her rescue. When she decides to live with them all, she also decides to lose something she's kept her whole life, and boy is it worth it.
Another hot and heavy book, I'm looking forward to getting to know more of the characters as the series progresses

This says part one but I actually read the whole serial in one installment. So this one was actually different from other ménage relationship books. They didn't just easily accept their situation and they had to talk about it and deal with jealousy. I thought that made a lot of sense because it just seems so awkward. And I'm pretty sure my bitchass would never have forgiven them for the Kassandra debacle.

The authors bought us a new world that the MC had to learn to survive. and get along. there is lot of emotion going on in this book. the new adventure this have taken is out of this realm. you have lots of action and suspense. I would love to read more stories like this.

Well done
For a menage, this was a great study in character development, from a unique situation, with a simple yet well written plot. The reality was played close to home so not that many details were needed about the outside world. It was a great balance of all parts of the story.

This book is basically sex
September 21, 2018
Not a great book, but not bad either. It is a very short read. Menage. Some pretty serious conflict. A lot of behind the scenes bonding that we don't really see, but have to believe happened for them to fall in love. Lots of sex.Virus took over the world. No zombies, but your usual good ole bad guys who think that since the world has ended, they should rule it and take what they want.Decent ending. At least Alyssa thought things through and didn't just go back to the status quoe quickly. She dealt with her feelings in, what I though was a semi rational way.I recommend this to those who like quick menages and end of the world stuff, even if there isn't a lot of dealing with that in this book.
