Head for Jack

Rate this book
Halloween romance, super spicy with a delicious twist of darkness.Embark on a spine-tingling journey into the unknown with a fresh take on the legendary Headless Horseman. Our Halloween romance is unlike anything you've experienced before, blending alien-human pairings with a dash of spooky allure.

He's been patiently awaiting her arrival, armed with cutting-edge technology to fulfill her darkest desires.

Tallulah and her closest confidante, Lux, are gearing up for an unforgettable girls' weekend in the eerie Sleepy Hollow. But their adventure takes an electrifying twist thanks to some mind-boggling technology.

Tallulah's online connection, Jack, seems like a dream, but she's wary of disappointment. Little does she know, Jack hails from the enigmatic fifth dimension, armed with otherworldly technology that's set to turn her world upside down, Sleepy Hollow style.

Trigger This is a dark romance novella with graphic adult content, graphic sexual situations, some graphic violence, alien human pairing, and language. Thin on plot and high on steam. HEA. Part of a series but may be read as a standalone. Perfect for a quickie, naughty, bedtime read. If you're into aliens and humans, and short, dark smutty reads, give this a try. High on Steam light on plot, intentionally out there for Halloween fun.

Readers of Ruby Dixon, Siggy Shade, Ava Ross, Michelle Mills, Honey Phillips, Ursa Dax, Tiffany Roberts, Mandy Spice, Molly Doyle, Layla Fae, Beatrix Steam, Adrian Blue, and C.M. Nacosta may like this book.

What a perfect Novella for Halloween time!!!!
I've always loved the legend of Sleepy Hollow and with this ass kicking cover I was sold!!!

Tallulah and Jack have been messaging back and fourth for over four months talking and flirting online and every time Jack mentions meeting up with Tallulah she has a excuse. Tallulah has had two bad relationships and doesn't want to meet Jack in case he's another asshole. She's had too much fun talking to him. But when she makes plans with her bestie to dress up and have a wild time this Halloween Jack finally hunts her down and he will make this good girl librarian sexy fantasies come true including the headless horseman! The chemistry and the sexual banter was awesome and the sex steamy and intense! Jack and Tallulah have been together in many lives and his claims of being from the fifth dimension are revealed and lets just say he's packing not one but two weapons of mass orgasm power!!! If you want a awesome erotic romance with a Halloween theme check this one out! Its a delightfully dirty read with great characters. Until next time Luv's💕💋Happy Halloween

Here's Jack's Poem to Tallulah 💋

In shadows deep, where moonlight wanes, Tallulah meets her demon's chains.“Jack, a creature from realms unknown, In love with her, his heart has grown. He gave her a pill, iManifest⸺“To glimpse his truth, he did suggest. With dark allure and Halloween's might, Her world will change this fateful night. As shadows whisper their secret pact, Jack knows she'll soon be entrapped. For when she glimpses his twisted grace, She'll fall for him in this eerie place. With eyes wide open to the abyss, Tallulah's heart is his to kiss. In the darkness, their love takes flight, A tale of horror, on Halloween night. Jack, the demon, her heart did claim, In a love that thrives on the darkest flame. Together they dance through the spectral haze, In the haunted hours, their love ablaze.

sad disappointment.

Cheesy, shallow, cringe.

Wasn’t expecting much of a story, but this is like old school slasher girl.
Dumb, giggly, and tstl.
I’m bored.

There was only one good thing about this book: it was free.
But otherwise... Mediocre, often boring, pointless, and the storytelling was simply not good.. Spicy scenes.. also big meh.
3/10.

This was…… weird.

It is a monster romance, so just be aware going into it. The girl in the book is heavily intoxicated and under the influence during this novella so the entire experience seems like it’s just a trip to her. The STORY portion was very lackluster. I understand for it being so short it’s hard to have more plot, but it lost a ton of potential for me due to lack of plot. I love the story of the Horseman and there could have been so much more to this than “he’s an alien and I’m high.”

The beautiful cover of this book drew me in and I just had to read it. So, I borrowed it from KU and read it. Wow. This was cheesy, OTT (not in a good way), cringey, and the writing was so simplified it felt like it was written by a 17 or 18-year-old. And the parts that should have been good *cough, cough* meaning the smut, was extremely short and basic.

If you are looking for a short and naughty Halloween good time, pass this one up. It's not worth the time and there are really good Halloween novellas out there.

5 stars for the cover. 1 star for the writing.

this book is idiotic

It’s poorly written. I felt like I was reading a 14yr olds creepy fantasy. Don’t waste your time! There is zero character development, and what is expounded upon is over done— which makes a weird juxtaposition of me knowing what the FMC footwear is at any given moment but she actually lacks any and all personality. Characters can we well rounded and developed in novellas. Go read any of Grace Draven novellas if you are wanting fantasy romance at 100pgs with actual plot. This is garbage.

Alien romance

This is the last installment in the series. This particular one is about a man that lives between dimensions and him finding his faded mate again. Apparently every time she passes and then gets reborn. He finds her and they live a happy lifetime together. It definitely has a Halloween theme which really added a lot of fun to the story. And there is a short story at the end that I haven't had a chance. So use the link to finish but is really good so far too and it's kind of like a prequel to the friend who also finds her future husband.

"Startled, I leap back, the splintering thud of the axe still echoing through the night. It finds its mark with gruesome precision, cleaving through the head of the rider. The pale moonlight casts an eerie glow upon the grim scene, illuminating the sinister figure in pursuit—a man with a grinning, pumpkin-headed mask."

GREAT novella! It was paced perfectly which is impressive since a lot of shorts seem rushed. This was the perfect bite sized "adult" bedtime story with the right amount of spooks, scares, and spice.

This book suffered from a lack of direction. It couldn't decide what it wanted to be. Spooky? Sexy? Paranormal? Historical? Sci-Fi? It didn't know, and I didn't either.

I was confused for a majority of it, waiting for answers that never really came.

The sex scenes felt super cringy. As in, I physically cringed while reading them and almost DNF'd at 70% because I was so turned off by them.

Overall, a big miss.

it’s a no for me

This one was messy and all over the place like it didn’t know what it wanted to be…I thought it was supposed to be a sleepy hollow retelling, you know from the cover and in the blurb, I apparently couldn’t stretch my imagination that far because to call this a retelling would be a STRETCH…the preview of the vampire story was the best part of this one, and the difference between writing was night and day

I was looking at smutty Halloween books for October and fell into the “ novella” genre. Here’s what I learned….I love short stories because instead of waiting 200 pages to get to the dirty smut you actually get to it within pages. Author Jessie Knight created a silly Halloween story with a dirty twist. Here’s on of my favourite lines:
“He taste as good as he smells, of Carmel and hot, spicy cinnamon”. He sounds delicious!
Head For Jack was a fun silly read!

An Enjoyable Read

I really enjoyed this one. It was an easy read that kept me turning the pages and invested in the story from start to finish.

What I enjoyed most was the overall atmosphere and the way the story unfolded. It made for a relaxing and entertaining reading experience.

Highly recommend for readers looking for a quick and enjoyable escape during the Halloween season.

Not exactly my cup of tea. The story is a good concept, but I felt it was a little bit of a let down and a tad bit muddled together. But it does make a good little quick read if you’re in a reading slump. I’d give it 3 stars.

This was a fun take on "The Headless Horseman." This satisfied my Halloween smut requirements and then some! It's a super quick read at 66 pages.

Definitely pick this one up if you love Halloween and Monster Romance.

Perfect for a quick Halloween read

I enjoyed this story and loved how it was paced. Jack was sweet and I liked him a lot. The story felt like there was so much more to it than just a quick smut read. Would loved to have more to read.

I’m not sure what exactly to say about this book. It wasn’t as ridiculous in some ways as some of the bonus books we ready for Smutty book club, but in others it was even more ridiculous. But it could have been worse. I’ll have a more in depth review posted here after it goes live on my blog.

Nice

This one's a bit different then the others. It's a good read and has more depth. I like the pre book intro for the next one.

2.5/5… the halloween vibes were decadent but the smut wasn’t very juicy, a little vaguely written.

For a short novella, the plot was convoluted and the spice was not very good.

There is nothing like a short smutty Halloween read and this is it!! I enjoyed the shortness of the book with a full punch!
