Well if you want your heart to constantly race, and to be on the edge of your seat then this one is for you.

I was given an ARC of this book and asked my thoughts (voluntarily) and here they are.

From the first page this book doesn’t let up with the suspense, the intrigue, the mystery (ahhh what’s happening!)and the twists.

Perfect for fans of Stephen king’s Under the Dome or anyone that loves to read about what people would do faced with the end of everything they’ve ever known.

The main character is such a believable narrator that takes you on a journey of self discovery and what you can achieve and overcome even when you don’t think you’ve got the strength. Faced with impossible decisions she must keep her children safe against all odds.

There is a spice element to the book (no spoilers) that was hot and also a beautiful story of friendship forged in awful and terrifying conditions.

This book hooked me IMMEDIATELY and did not let go until the ride was over. I ignored my chores, I forgot to eat...I was so lost in the world that J.N. Smith created! From the first chapter, I could feel Jane's anxiety as she drove out of Detroit. My heart hammered in my chest, my pulse throbbed hard in my neck, feeling the frenzy as Jane raced against the clock to get the kids to safety. It's incredibly rare for me to experience physical sensations like that from reading a book.
Jane is a woman you can't help but admire- a mom, aunt, and a total badass as she handles the challenges thrown at her as she tries to keep her family safe, healthy, and fed while navigating an existential crisis for all of mankind that she maaaaay have predicted back in grad school. She never could have predicted these shimmery orbs though, called the "Veil" which suddenly appear over entire cities throughout the globe, sequestering cities and families apart and obliterating anyone who tries to cross them. Outside the Veil, Jane finds friendship, allies, and maybe her own second chance, against the backdrop of this dystopia. In the absence of a normal family unit, she puts together her own, all while navigating painful betrayals, high stakes, anxiety, and a crazy man determined to get back at her for rejecting his advances. And what about this gorgeous veteran who she can't manage to get rid of? Ummmm, let's just say Matt is book boyfriend material so, uh, DIBS! Will Jane ever drop her walls and let him in after he's more than proven himself worthy of trust? You'll have to read to find out, and it's well worth savoring this book in a way I didn't. Take your time, if you can bear it.
I can't wait for the next book in the series!
5/5 *, would read again.

In a breathtaking, top-speed highway scene, suburban mother Jane Moore frantically flees her home city of Detroit while questioning her own sanity. Her trusted friend Robert, a professor and expert on human survival, has urged her to leave the city by noon or her family would die, but did his call really happen? What danger could be taking place in Detroit?

Laser-like electric barriers, or “veils,” have arisen seemingly out of nowhere, enclosing portions of major cities around the world. Those who try to cross the Veils do not survive. Then, there is news of an airborne virus, the X-Virus with a 100 percent mortality rate. Were the veils created in an attempt to quarantine cities from the virus? Jane needs to keep herself and her children alive while facing the reality that stores and gas stations have all closed and the police can provide little emergency response, so she must fend for herself. Meanwhile, Jane’s husband, her sister, and other loved ones are trapped within Detroit’s Veil.

Damaged, angry, and heartbroken Matt Patterson survived a ghastly experience in Afghanistan. The only life he can imagine for himself is forestalled when the Army, his true love, won’t take him back. The Veil shuts him out of his city apartment, so Matt takes up residence in his parents’ farmhouse and learns from the news that global leaders have enacted a Global Protection Protocol that explains the erection of these technological Veils.

Jane runs into Matt while enacting her plan to loot abandoned homes for weapons and food. Lies and hurt feelings leave each of them fiercely determined not to trust the other, despite sizzling feelings of attraction. Then tragedy forces them to cooperate… but Jane is married, and faithful, with her husband (still alive, still in contact, and angry with her for leaving) behind the Veil, and Matt has never stopped working to be allowed to resume his military career.

As the country faces conspiracy theories and lawless violence, citizen attempts to disarm the Veil, and a presidential betrayal, Jane struggles to keep her family alive and the Army at long last offers Matt a chance to return. In this tightly woven web of impossibilities, will hope and love manage to stay alive?

Note: I received an Advanced Reading Copy of this book and this review is voluntary.

[Manda Mazanec · Rating 5 out of 5]

From start to finish, I felt as if I was with Jane Moore and her race to save her children. From the virus, to the veil, to the crazy neighbor…Jane proved that she’d do whatever it took to ensure the safety of her family.
And Matt. My God, I fell in love with Matt. After being discharged from the military and wanting so desperately to join back is incredibly relatable.
Finding each other, the tension, the falling in love…I loved it all. I hated when Matt left. But the events that surrounded that were again, so relatable.
Everything about this book, the suspense, the family dynamics, the parts that made me cry…make me so upset that it had to end. I can NOT wait until the next in the series is released.
This was an incredible book. Highly recommend.

Wow. Who knew dystopian romance was a thing, but I’m here for it. I can’t wait for the next installment! We don’t get many older strong female characters. Jane had many trials to face and Matt was with her all the way. #instalove

I am obsessed with this book. Best book of 2023.

[Alexa · Rating 3 out of 5]

This was one of my first dystopian books and it was a really cool concept and had romance. One thing I really appreciated was that the FMC had prep skills for emergency which I really liked.

[Elizabeth · Rating 3 out of 5]

I went back and forth on this one. I really liked the story, but Jane and her worries over the Veil being her fault got tiring. The sham of a marriage was also hard to understand or believe. Why would anyone do that to someone else, let alone yourself? I'm also not a fan of older woman/younger man romances, but it worked in this story.

[Paula K · Rating 5 out of 5]

A very different kind of love story. Adding the whole distopian angle to it gave it the added angle to it. The characters all had their own issues but they helped to “flesh out” the storyline.

[Cody · Rating 2 out of 5]

Romance novel....

As an apocalyptic story.
The virus and the veil idea is such a great idea. But really, it's just a lousy love story.
I kept reading it, thinking the great idea plot would take over and be the main story. But nope!
I'm being generous in giving this 2 stars. I highly do not recommend this book. I definitely will not read the rest of this series!

[Kristine · Rating 5 out of 5]

The best book I have read this year!

This book pulled me in immediately. I feel most Dystopian stories are written after the world has gone sideways. This takes you through it happening day by day, all while you fall in love with the characters. I wouldn't be surprised if we saw this in the theaters at some point. This is by far my favorite book I have read this year!

[Sam · Rating 5 out of 5]

This was excellent! The first time I have read this writers work but hopefully not the last! Everything you could want from this type of story, a great storyline, well written & well developed characters, great action & good pace, a really excellent read! I will look for more by this writer & I do recommend!

second chances for a new beginning

I picked up this beautiful gem from Kindle Unlimited after seeing a post for J.N. Smith. I feel like everyone should read it!! Why it has so few reviews honestly is crazy. For being her first published novel it is 10 ⭐️’s well written with amazing in depth characters.

From the very first page I was hooked. The book is about a rare virus with a 100% mortality rate. The underling story is about Jane and her as a person and her family. I pushed pause on adulting to read this book. You get to see inside her head and at 40 years old with two children and an unloving marriage in today society you kinda feel not beautiful but Jane was a beautiful soul and she gets to find herself.

Matt lost something he can never get back and for the first time in two years someone sees HIM.

There is some much happening that it keeps you on the edge of your seat. The driving was more like 😬😬😬🫣!

Favorite quote: “Who could have imagined that the end of the world would bring such a beautiful beginning?”

I am very excited and looking forward to more in the Veil series. This book does not have a resolution for the Veil so would be ongoing.

DETROIT de J.N. Smith Serie The Veil Libro 1

Argumento:

Entre su primera taza de café y su dosis diaria de Xanax, Jane recibe una advertencia críptica de un amigo de confianza.

¡Sal de la ciudad ahora!

Tras escapar por poco con sus hijos, observa con horror cómo Detroit, al igual que docenas de ciudades de todo el mundo, queda atrapada tras los “Velos”.

Mientras Jane navega por la distopía moderna, conoce al veterano del ejército Matt Patterson. Juntos luchan por la supervivencia de sus hijos y por un futuro que ninguno esperaba.



Mi humilde opinión:

Romance postapocalíptico, durante y después de un virus, cuarentena, atracción instantánea, diferencia de edad, ex soldado, familia encontrada, proximidad forzada.

Al principio no entendía lo que estaba sucediendo, un amigo de la protagonista, Jane, le advierte de un peligro, ella no duda y sale de la ciudad llevándose en el auto a sus dos hijos y dos de su hermana. Mientras maneja ve autos chocándose contra una especie de barrera a la que llaman El Velo que se activó a la orden del presidente cuando descubrieron que un virus mortal se iba a propagar. Intenta muchas veces llamar a su esposo pero no le responde y cuando finalmente pudo dar con él, la trató mal y acusó de robárselos cuando ella quería ponerlos a salvo? Me pregunté donde estaba él que no contestó sus llamadas. Podía entender su preocupación como padre pero no la forma horrible en que le habló y hasta le salió con una acusación de infidelidad que no venia al caso. No preguntó si ella estaba bien, ni escuchó sus razones. El tipo tenia cero empatía con ella. Me daba pena Jane, sufría de ansiedad y ataques de pánico y se sentía culpable por llevarse a los niños. Era evidente que su matrimonio no era feliz y que él no la quería, se notaba que había una historia detrás que me picaba por saber.

Para el colmo, cuando llega a su cabaña a las afueras de la ciudad, su vecino es un ebrio que la amenaza y a sus hijos, un pervertido que promete hacerle la vida un infierno. El policía que ella llama toma su denuncia de menos y cuando el vecino la sigue acosando, sus denuncias siguen cayendo a oídos sordos. El constante miedo por ella y los niños la hace mudarse a otro lugar. Lo que pasa después fue una estupidez de parte de Jane, sabiendo que el tipo aun es un peligro, sale de su casa de noche, sin su arma, a buscar el cargador del teléfono?! Esa fue una escena que casi me da un infarto!

Su personaje tiene un gran crecimiento a lo largo de la historia, Jane siendo una mujer de ciudad con una vida cómoda como esposa de un abogado, se adapta felizmente a la vida rural durante la epidemia, gana confianza en sí misma, se redescubre, sana y se permite amar a un hombre una década menor que ella. Es una heroína con corazón, ya desde el comienzo ayudó al señor Hamilton con su esposa enferma, era una gran mamá, su prioridad eran sus hijos y sobrinos. Valiente y fuerte, se manejó sola con cuatro niños y los mantuvo a salvo con todo el caos sucediendo.

Matt era un ex soldado, rechazado por el ejército cuando le amputaron el pie. Se notaba que era querido por sus padres y amigos del ejército que veían injusto que no lo acepten de vuelta una vez recuperado de su lesión. Al igual que Jane, esta lidiando con sus traumas, tiene PTSD después de haber perdido a su mejor amigo en Afganistán en una explosión. Estaba volviendo de la base cuando El Velo se levantó en la ciudad dejándolo en la granja de sus padres. Después de su accidente y que el ejército lo descartara, siente que su vida perdió el rumbo, que no es un hombre entero. Matt también tiene mucho que sanar y descubrir lo que realmente quiere en la vida.

La historia se va contando desde dos puntos de vista, a medida que pasan los días después de que El Velo aparece. Con miedo e incertidumbre, siendo testigos de los cambios catastróficos en el mundo y la muerte a causa del desconocido virus.

Matt y Jane se conocen semanas después del El Velo cuando ella irrumpe en la granja de sus padres pensando que esta abandonada, buscando un arma para defenderse del vecino que la acosa. Los dos se sienten inmediatamente atraídos por el otro. Jane se siente culpable al gustarle un hombre diez años menor, si bien su marido hace tiempo que no la mira como una mujer todavía esta casada. Por su parte, Matt quedó tan impresionado con ella que no puede sacársela de la cabeza. Jane lo hace sentir como su viejo yo, antes de su lesión, no lo ve como algo que ya no sirve, sino como un hombre entero, como una mujer que lo desea. Necesitaba un propósito y entonces apareció Jane. Me gustaba cómo era Matt con Jane. A diferencia del marido, él admiraba y la valoraba como mujer, además de que era adorable con los niños sin tener experiencia con ellos. Después de conocer al marido de Jane y la forma en que la trataba ella se merecía a alguien como Matt.

Pero la situación entre ellos es complicada porque a pesar de que el matrimonio de Jane estaba mal desde hace tiempo, la culpa por lo que siente por Matt hace que lo mantenga lejos.
Jane y Matt eran una pareja apasionada. Tenían un fuego y química increíbles. Eran una pareja improbable. Nunca se hubieran conocido de no ser por la pandemia. Me encantaron juntos y como dije antes ella se recia un Matt en su vida.

Hay muchas revelaciones y giros dramáticos y angustiosos en la historia. Muchos momentos injustos que me enojaron e indignaron y otro dulces, pero todo termina con un lindo final por ahora para Matt y Jane. Él debe volver a la base y no sabemos que pasara después con ellos. También me quedé esperando la explicación sobre El Velo y el virus X, no se sabe el origen ni lo que pasará con todo eso. Estoy ansiosa por comenzar el segundo libro!

Wow! This book is amazing. It had me in a chokehold the second I started. I may have neglected my chores so I could just read this book and be submerged in this amazing world J.N Smith created. This book has it all, suspense, twists, love, betrayal… it’s amazing 10 outta 10 recommend!

[Essie · Rating 5 out of 5]

What a great story! It immediately sucked me in. I was so invested in the characters. They were really well written. The attraction between them jumped off the pages!

So there was romance, but there was also drama, action, mystery and a well thought out plot. The amount of research the writer probably had to do for this story is impressive.

I laughed out loud a lot, two times it brought tears to my eyes and a lot of scenes where action packed and suspenseful. Can’t wait for the next one (and I hope Matt and Jane make a guest appearance!)

[Logan Gray · Rating 5 out of 5]

J.N. Smith was looking for beta readers, and I volunteered. This isn't my typical genre of choice, but I was glad I read it. It was suspenseful and full of surprises and emotion. I love that the main characters are flawed from the get-go, but it's not hindering either of the main characters. I would highly recommend reading this book.

4.5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - Why aren’t more people talking about this book?!

Detroit was a wild, pulse-pounding ride and I devoured every minute of it. I’ll try to keep this spoiler-free up here, but just know: there will be spoilers after the warning.

Jane, her two children, her niece, and her nephew flee the city in a desperate race against time. Moments after she gets them to safety, the Veil — a massive force field — rises around major cities worldwide, including Detroit.

The reason?
An airborne virus killing people at alarming speed.

Now Jane is out in the world, terrified, unmedicated, and alone… with four kids depending on her. Will she survive long enough to protect them?

Then there’s Matt — a war veteran who was perfectly content to rot on his couch until the Veil went up and shoved him back into the rural life he tried to forget. He’s battling his own demons and barely holding himself together.

When their worlds collide?
It’s messy, unexpected, and so damn good.

Can they save each other while keeping everyone else safe?

⸻

⚠️ SPOILERS — Read at your own risk ⚠️

Here’s what future-me (and anyone reading) needs to know:

What I Loved ❤️

Jane is a total badass. No whining, no pointless decisions — just grit and survival.

Matt is peak book-boyfriend material. The way he steps up for Jane and the kids? Ten out of ten.

Their tension + miscommunication = chef’s kiss. Electric without being overdone. And I usually hate miscommunication.

What Didn’t Work for Me 🤨

What happened to Robert?? I kept waiting for an update and… nothing.

Her thesis being used without contact felt odd. Wouldn’t someone higher up have to reach out?

Thomas. Explain him to me. Please.
The plot twist around him felt messy — especially the idea that she had never felt love in 20+ years. It didn’t land the way it was meant to and came off more confusing than impactful in my opinion.

[Pene|ope • Reading Slump, Send Help · Rating 3 out of 5]

2.5 but I'll round up because of the found family parts.
 
‼️ Spoilers 
Post-apocalyptic romance with a reverse age gap and a not-so-single parent. A little insta-lovey, which also means that there's some dubious cheating. Her husband is later found to have been cheating on her for their entire relationship and marriage, but she doesn't know that before she starts falling for the MMC and even kisses him. Her entire marriage with her husband was strained, and she never felt loved, which is sad, but I don't think is a pass.

Anyway, I really loved the found family aspect of this, and learning to survive in what became of their world after the veils went up. The premise is a little out there, but I've been dying for more post-apocalyptic romance so I'll forgive it. I even enjoyed it a little because it's such a different reason from most of the post-apocalyptic stories I've read. The kids/teen were adorable, and Ed was sweet too.

Ends on a HFN, which I expected because the veil thing isn't over, but we don't even get to know what happens with the husband and his decades-long mistress by the end. 

Most of all, I hated that the grovel didn't even happen because she was scared into not wanting to lose another opportunity with him. He made some extremely harmful accusations and then abandoned them all. They needed to at least talk it out, but she wouldn't let him because she wanted him so badly so they just slept together for the first time SMH. This could have been a 4 star for me if the grovel had been good.

[Catheryn · Rating 3 out of 5]

This story was surprisingly intense at parts.

The pacing of the story felt off at times. The romance doesn't even start until 30% (they don't meet until 30%). I think why this story felt off is because it is a post-apoc story but society never collapses.

The story starts fast with Jane fleeing the city with her kids and her sister's kids. We slowly learn everything when she does. Even after the Veil goes up, society never collapses. After she makes it to a cabin to stay at, the town still is fully functioning. Throughout the story we learn why there is a veil and why it went up. But still society is functioning as mostly normal.

Both Jane and Matt have trauma that they are working through, especially in the beginning of the story. I loved their relationship and wanted to see more of it. It develops pretty quickly after they meet. Matt is absolutely enamored with Jane when he meets her. Though their feelings develop quickly, this is a sloooooooooow burn. It gets there but oh so slowly.

I wish that information was weaved more seamlessly throughout the story. We got chunks of information about the veil, what was happening, and even background info on Jane and Matt. It made the pacing a bit clunky at times.

The concept of this is interesting. I'm not sure that I will continue with the series.

[Carrie · Rating 5 out of 5]

I loved this. The apocalyptic setting, the science and math bits, the untrustworthy government, the smoking hot Army vet, the nonstop action… It was a WILD ride! My heart was beating out of my chest multiple times with my nerves. So many funny moments too. More than I noted, but look below for some of my favorites!

My complaints: Jane acted like a young idiot often. She was emotionally stunted, which probably makes sense given her story, but she’s the exact same age as me and I struggled to watch her make decisions I maybe would have made at 23 but definitely wouldn’t at 40. Also, there were a few spelling/grammatical errors but nothing too distracting.

Now for a couple funny quotes and a couple sweet quotes.

“He actually has the V. Her eyes fell back to his hips, as they descended into his briefs. ‘Holy shit.’ He did. She had never seen it in real life before.”

“Matt wondered why she was in such a hurry since Mrs. Hamilton was already dead, but kept his mouth shut.”

“You must be bold in your desires or they will slip through your fingers.”

“She was beginning to wonder if instead of Xanax all those years, what she really needed was someone to laugh with.”

2.5 / 5 stars
heat rating: 1/5 peppers (nothing until the end and it is on the vague side)

I was conflicted on how I felt about this book at times I was on the edge of my seat and other times I felt frustrated. My frustration was mostly with Jane, I wish I could say I grew to like her over the story but I can't say that I actually did. She is very hung up on her husband (I have a lot to say here but I won't spoil it for others), which if you asked me it sounded like a shitty marriage that she settled for. When she wasn't fretting over her husband or her kids then she was hung up on the idea that the veil was her fault because of a paper she wrote 20 years ago. We never really get a resolution to this idea and we never meet the mysterious man who tipped her off on getting out of the city. I feel like I have more questions then answers in this nearly 500 page book. I spent nearly the entire book wondering if Jane and Matt would actually end up together. Personally I am not a fan of a reverse age-gap, I think it worked for the storyline though.

Matt probably saved this story for me because there is a lot going on in this plot.

[Krista Kezman · Rating 4 out of 5]

Disclaimer - I am a dystopian nerd. I LOVED how this book started. the first 1/3 of it was intense, sci-fi ish, and very apocalyptic. After that, it was heavily focused on the relationship our FMC has w herself and those around her. I personally was itching for more on the end of the world scenario than where this went. It was enjoyable but I was so hooked by the setup I was disappointed that the focus shifted. That said, I’m sure there are MANY readers who aren’t as nerdy as me and will love it. I also had a hard time aligning a woman who was so critical of herself and questioned everything so much with one who was so incredibly strong and brave to do the things she did. Worth the read for sure especially if you’re more of a fan of not sooo spicy romance novels.

[Matt Egan · Rating 4 out of 5]

Unexpected and excellent

Detroit: The Veil Book 1 is about major cities being sealed by the government using "veils" that destroy all organic matter they encounter in order to stop the spread of a highly lethal airborne form of rabies which is rapidly wiping out the population. Jane and Matt are beautifully written, flawed but determined to do right. Even the kids are well rounded. There's plenty of action interwoven with a love story. I was very surprised, in a very good way. The book isn't what I expected, and I'm just fine with that! 4/5 stars, highly recommended for adults!

"This narrative was deeply moving; it absolutely floored me. The author’s immersion into the main female character's point of view provided a crystal-clear understanding of her intrinsic motivations, even before she recognized them herself. The portrayal of not feeling 'good enough,' shared between both the male and female leads, was incredibly impactful. One plot point felt predictable, but the author's expert execution of the underlying themes was so masterful that it revealed a deeper reasoning I hadn't anticipated. It was an exceptionally enjoyable read. The emotional intensity was such a journey that I may need a brief hiatus before diving into the next installment."

Hmmm ok so it’s giving The Dome vibes, but no aliens and if a wronged medicated 40ish woman with cougar proclivities wrote it instead of Steven King. Totally relatable, and obviously something I would read, but I was hoping for more about Robert and how her thesis became enacted. Not sure if I wanna read the next one, which is about influencer Katie that made Matt fell less-than for losing a foot. The Insta love had me skipping pages. Starts off by hitting the ground running, adrenaline dump just reading! Had me smiling and literally lol-ing often.

This was a wild ride. I laughed like a crazy person, I legitimately cried my eyes out for a whole chapter and I might refer to my children as baboons from now on. Matt and Jane have beautiful chemistry, the kind that's difficult to capture in print. The storyline as a whole is well done, you can tell the author has a scientific background with the discussion on statistics and outbreak management, it was a very unique touch in the apocalyptic genre I appreciated. Wonderfully written, hard to put down. I'm thrilled to jump into the next in the series.

Excellent dystopian romance!

This story was so freaking good! It follows a mom and her children, a soldier, and a deadly outbreak. It blends suspense with all of the joys and sorrows of love and connection. I couldn’t put this down and I’m so glad I read it. I’m immediately downloading the next book in the series. Honestly it’s a crime that I hadn’t heard of this sooner. I’m going to immediately share it with my online book girlies. Definitely recommend this story!

A Fantastic Ride!

Wow! This book was amazing! It starts off with a heaping barrel full of anxiety and doesn’t let you come down for the whole book. And through it all, the chaos of an extreme pandemic and government conspiracy is a backdrop to this achingly beautiful love story. The author digs right down deep into these humans souls and let’s you experience it all. I LOVED it!

Loved reading this book! I feel like it has a little of everything. From romance (which is just the right amount for the book, I’m not a big romance book person but enjoyed this one) and mystery to some politics (but not in a bad way) and some thriller. Lots going on in the book but in a good way. Love the person Jane became! Can’t wait to read the next one!
