I feel like I missed something.. im so confused at that ending. Is this a paranormal romance? Is she hallucinating? Who tf is Sadie? I'm not understanding.
The smut was hot, but there was no real depth to this story at all.
I did enjoy the spooky vibes and the masked men though!

Scream At the Fair

When Tallulah receives a mysterious letter from The Society about a $100,000 prize to stay in an abandoned warehouse for 12 hours, she knows she will accept. That money would be life changing.

No one knows who The Society is exactly but they have a very dark reputation, however Tallulah is looking forward forward to what is in store for her.

Challenge after challenge, Tallulah doesn’t know how much more she can take, or why she likes it so much.

This is a spooky, super spicy, haunted novella and o devoured the whole damn thing!!! I’m super upset there isn’t more!

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️


This is a short and spicy novella that is just perfect for the Halloween season.

If you’re looking for a fantastic, quick, spooky read, then this is for you! From page one I couldn’t put it down and I was obsessed until the very end!! It was clever and spicy but also bone chilling and I wanted a whole novel of it!

As always please check trigger warnings before reading.

Trigger warnings:
Strong language, violence, blood/gore, stalking/hunting, non-consensual sex, non-consensual drugging, explicit sexual content including bondage, knife play, spitting, primal play, breath play, and more. Terrors brought to life include being buried alive and waterboarding.

I was not expecting the plot twist plus I loved all of the spice incorporated in this themed novella.

I can’t wait for the rest of the series, when I finished, I definitely wanted to read more and find out what happens.

This is a short and spicy novella that is just PERFECT for the Halloween season.

Talullah is sent an invitation by the Secret Society to attempt to survive in The abandoned Fairgrounds for 12 hours where she is tantalized and tortured by masked actors . If she does, she will earn $100,000… sounds like a no-brainer, right?

What does she have to endure for 12 hours????

This novella has some SERIOUS spice!

I am so confused by the ending...and sadly, do not care enough to pick up whatever comes next in this series.

While this erotic horror was spicy, it didn't evoke any emotion. It just felt like words on a page, like all words and no feeling. I want to know how scared or how into the "activities" she was. Then, the ending...I have NO idea what happened despite re-reading the last few chapters multiple times. I felt like I was missing something.

Win some money, all Tallulah has to do is survive 12 hours in an abandoned fair - where ZERO rules apply (check TWs) the plot is spice with a twisted ending, brb, about to go into a rabbit hole of spicy depravity to get some answers…

I love Lucien and how he helped her through this. All the members that helped her with her fantasy just wow. Especially the leader with all the piercings. Hot!!!

Amazing, quick, spicy, and suspenseful read perfect for the spooky season! Tallulah, really needing the money, decides to follow through on an invitation from The Society. She is to last through all tasks set for her at an abandoned fairgrounds. No one has been able to achieve this yet. Each chapter is a different scene/situation inside the fairgrounds.
This read is definitely dark and dirty so check the trigger warnings.

I loved the open ended ending! I can’t wait for more from this author!

Make sure you check trigger warnings on this book before you read it because if you don't, you may not enjoy the book. Also make sure you read what it is about because again, you may not enjoy it if you don't know what you are getting into.
Perfect spooky action packed novella right in time for Halloween. This was my 1st book by Cristina and I wasn't disappointed in the writing at all. The book keeps you on your toes during the adventure as you keep flipping pages.
If you are into these types of books, then this one is a hit!

•Tellula Daniels has been contacted by the mysterious Society. A one hundred thousand dollar prize is hers if she can survive twelve hours in the abandoned fairgrounds. It should be easy for a horror movie buff to spend her Halloween being scared by actors. It turns out to be more than jump scares and costume makeup. She's trapped in a sensual nightmare and pushed to her limits. When quitting isn't an option, will the seductive Lucien turn out to be friend or foe as Tellula attempts to allude her masked hunters?

Mini review:
•This was a perfect quick read to get into the spooky Halloween season! The plot twists in this book wow!!! The ending surprised me so much! I loved the spooky creepy aspect of being in an abandoned fair, it just added to the plot and all the spice

•I cannot wait to read more books by this author omg!

3.5⭐, rounded up to a 4⭐

Scream at the Fair is a prequel novella leading into The Twisted Society series. This is NOT a standalone.

I have mixed feelings about this. This was really dark, twisted and DEFINITELY spicy. There's also masked men and dark themes. Definitely engaging and enjoyable, but wished there was more plot development and character building and was able to connect with the fmc. I think I will continue with this series though.

Spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️


This was me while reading 😱😳🫣

I read it all in one sitting. I couldn’t put it down. It was so dark, just perfect for this season. 🧛 🩸

What you will find within:
-knife play 🔪
-zombies 🧟‍♂️
-vampires 🧛
-spitting 💧
-Pierced 🍆
-Blood play🩸

It starts with Tallulah receiving an invitation to this secret society, and if she chooses to accept she has to survive 12hrs within an abandoned fairgrounds. And if she does she will receive a grand prize $$$. She was the last chosen contestant, 6 men had previously tried and failed. So will she prove to be better than these men who failed? 😳

But when she enters these “actors” aren’t what they seem to be. They will hunt her, they will degrade her, use her, make her scream. Will she make it through the 12hrs? Will she win the $100,000? Or will she use her safe word, rutabaga?

The only thing I hated was it wasn’t longer !!! 🙁

This is a short story that grabs your attention from the 1st page.
Tallulah recieves an invitation to partake in surviving 12 hours at an abandoned fairground.if she survives she will win 100,000.
All her worst fears are brought to life and while trying to survive she hears a voice keep telling her to run and helping her.
The twist at the end you will never see coming and from where it ends,you know there's going to be other books.
Well done on a brilliant book

What the hell did I just read??? This has really confused me??!!!

I enjoyed it and am gonna give it 3.75⭐️ but that ending has baffled the hell out of me??

I feel like someone needs to actually explain to me what that ending meant as I’m so confused??

But I did enjoy the rest, despite how dark, scary and insane it was!!

This little novella was filled with so much spooky deliciousness that it will quickly captivate you and keep you in its thrall, never letting you go!

It’s filled with suspense, creepiness, horror, violence and some twists and turns that will leave you shocked towards the end.

I devoured every chilling and smutty moment of it and at the end I was left craving more!

I can’t wait to see what happens next!

I listened to the audiobook version. I was super spicy 🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶! It is a novella to a much larger story/series. But it was overall a really good opener to dip your toes into the hot, spicy, creepy, horror and masked men from the Society. I really enjoyed the narrator voice as well. I loved that Tallulah went into this open and thought she had it in the bag. Oh boy, was she in for one hell of a ride! I really loved the premise of this book!

So dirty but so good! Loved the premise of the book that was more that was it seemed! Just the fact that the main character wanted to enter a competition and then ended up finding her person but…I won’t spoil it! Just took a turn that I wasn’t expecting but soooo worth it!

If you want a book that is a quick read with lots of spice and masked men, with a creepy horror theme then this is for you.

It follows Tallulah who is invited by a secret society to spend 12 hours in an abandoned fairground to win huge cash prize. She soon finds out that it’s so so abandoned and some of her greatest fears come to life and well as her darkest wants.

This is a fab read for the spooky season. It clearly written and keeps you and the edge of your seat.

I hope this will become a series as would
Love to find out more about Tallulah and the secret society.

⚠️please do check the trigger warnings before reading ⚠️
