Falling in love can be terrifying.
Eight tales of spooky romance brought to you just in time for Halloween.
Bewitching
Gypsy by Linda Carroll Bradd
Fiona Mikolas is an outcast, branded by her fiery red
hair and a purple birth mark—both signs of the devil. Two years earlier, she
survived an influenza outbreak that claimed her peddler husband, Gregos, and
her baby son, Tito. Now she lives a solitary life, traveling a circuit of
southern states in America and selling healing potions. Until the night of All
Hallow’s Eve, when her lonely life is changed by the arrival of two strangers
in her camp.
Beaten and robbed, rancher Hagan Fletcher stumbles
toward the light of a campfire in south Texas, intent on finding a way to
retrieve his stolen stallion. When he awakens, he’s forgotten his name and how
he came to be in the company of an exotic beauty. Fiona’s ways are a mystery
but when her quick-thinking saves his life again, he looks deeper beneath the
surface to who she really is.
Garden of
Souls by Michelle Ziegler
Something, or someone, pulled Miranda to purchase the
old carriage house. It was a great deal, most likely because of the
cemetery or the unexpected resident, Thomas. The ghost she finds within the
sanctuary of her new home should have scared her. Instead she finds herself
falling in love with him.
Now, a few days from Halloween, Thomas continues to
push her to live her life. He wants one night though; the one night of
magic for the dead. Torn by her love for Thomas and her need for reality
and human contact, Miranda takes a chance with Sean. Someone who’s alive. The
guilt is eating away at her. Sean’s nice and he hasn’t run off yet, pushed away
by her craziness. Miranda knows she can’t split her herself.
Choosing her heart’s desire doesn’t seem possible, but
living and loving another seems like a life riddled with pain.
If This
Be Madness by Echo Shea
Don’t let me go…
Those are words that break her. When the person you
love most is gone, how do you let go?
And, more importantly, who will you be once you do?
Ghost of
a Chance by Lily Carlyle
After years of having her college boyfriend Sean as an
ex with benefits, Julie believes he is finally, irrevocably out of her life.
Forever. And it breaks her heart.
Until one night he shows up at the neighborhood
hangout—with a mysterious job, luxurious car, and fabulous digs. Not to mention
a new determination to woo Julie.
Even as her mind says no, her heart—and other parts of
her body—is saying yes, yes, yes!
Do You
Believe in Ghosts by Anne Higa
Jeff Austin-LeGrange has been fleeing from the
remnants of his dark and haunted childhood his entire life. The past always
catches up to us, and his is no exception.
Alice Hopkins, Jeff's high school sweetheart, has
tried to forget him and tried to move on. You never forget your first love.
When Jeff's mother dies and Alice's father falls ill,
the two are forced to confront their mutual history and their deepest desires.
One thing is sure: neither of their lives will ever be the same again. Perhaps,
the past can be overcome. Perhaps, it is not too late to believe in miracles.
Perhaps, more than one couple will be reunited this Fall.
Who can say? With a little magic, anything is
possible.
Encantado by Havva Murat
Spending Friday night in an abandoned amusement park
sounded like an awesome idea to motherless, teenage track star, Remy
Bordeaux—empty rides with no queues, and time alone with his best friend’s
alluring sister, Rafaela, was sure to make for a memorable night.
But Friday night at Six Flags became memorable for all
the wrong reasons when the park turned out to not be so abandoned after all.
Rafaela goes missing after getting cozy with Remy, and everyone thinks that
Remy is responsible, even his best friend.
It will take another trespassing trip to Six Flags for
the truth of Rafaela’s disappearance to be revealed and for the riddle of
Remy’s birth to be unraveled.
Where
Angels Tread by Christy Thomas
Loralei takes extreme measures to prove her cheating
husband has forsaken their bows by seeking confirmation from a fortune-teller.
The truth revealed is that she’s been unfaithful in a six hundred year old
spiritual marriage.
Samael, the Angel of Death must assist a young girl’s
soul in ascending to heaven. An unexpected encounter with his estranged wife
distracts him and the precious soul is lost.
Working together to save the endangered soul, they
find the price to reach her is higher than they both anticipate.
Spooky
Hollow Café by Lisa A. Adams
Aggie Pierce owns a quaint little
spot, the Spooky Hollow Cafe'. Tourist come from all over the nation to
her confections diner for the entertainment. Real live interacting

And now for the top two...
Linda Carroll-Bradd
Candy corn—and I love the new flavors like s’mores
Smarties
Anne Higa
Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and Snickers
Christy Thomas
My favorite as a kid: We always had a ritual of coming home with a bulging pillowcase of candy. I’d separate anything with chocolate and keep that, and the rest went into a large bowl that was shared with my parents.
My favorite now is anything creative. We live way in the country, and don’t buy Halloween candy because we have never had trick-or-treaters. This year I’m going to make cup cakes and pipe on spider webs and top with plastic spiders.
Havva Murat
Toffee Apples and Crispy M&Ms
Michelle Ziegler
Candy corn and candy corn. Oh, that’s not two. Okay. That crappy bubble gum that is pure sugar and loses its flavor in a minute or two. Don’t have a heart attack because neither of my top two are chocolate. Need I remind you, chocolate does not need a holiday.
Echo Shea
Mini-Hershey and Crackle bars.
Lisa A. Adams
My number one? - Candy Corn – Pure sugar… need I say more? It IS the candy that represents the coming of Halloween. I have a decorative bowl in the shape of a pumpkin that stays filled with this confections throughout the Fall season. My second would have to be Reese Pieces. Just enough peanut butter flavor to trick my mind that it’s actually getting some protein… lol.
Lily Carlyle
Candy corn. And yes I know it’s pure sugar held together by some horrible-for-you oil, which is why I alternate it with chocolate, which is proven to have health benefits. Because I always look out for my health…
