"Three Edgy and Erotic Tales, Perfect for Setting a Sexy Halloween Mood"

Romance Erotica Sensual
Megan Hart's Nothing Else Matters ends ambiguously. Other
than the central romantic thread, large parts of the
storyline are left unresolved. Although the story itself is
skillfully written and flows well, the adventurous and
horrific sections were more vibrant and compelling for me
than the sex scenes. I emphasize the 'for me'. Horror fans
will definitely enjoy this take on the zombie apocalypse. Lauren Hawkeye's Pick Me Up also ends without a concrete
resolution, but it fits well with the eerie manipulative
actions of the main character. The sex scenes are steamy and
immediate, filled with sensory detail and the storyline
leaves readers with a 'gotcha' moment that flows
naturally from the author's set up. I am a huge urban
fantasy fan but straight horror tends to make me shy away.
Despite that, I can easily appreciate Hawkeye's skill in
creating this delicately balanced and chilling tale. Saranna DeWylde's Little Red's Big Bad is probably my
favorite of HOT AND HAUNTED's three offerings.
U.S. Marshal Miranda Garrick is a supreme alpha female who
meets her overpoweringly sexy match in the F.B.I.'s Aden
Brewster as they hunt a self-proclaimed werewolf serial
killer. There were some leaps of faith and suspensions of
logic required of readers, particularly those who are
accustomed to reading procedural crime stories but as an
erotic thriller, the story definitely works, and works well.
Overall, I think any fan of horror and erotica will find HOT
AND HAUNTED a decent value for the book budget, all three
authors show skill and imagination and the stories kept me
entertained from first to last page.
