Recluse Braeden Van Brunt is not happy to be the Headless Horseman…until he meets Katrina Van Tassel, owner of the Sleepy Hollow Inn, whose allure bewitches him from the front desk into the bedroom. When he discovers Kat and the village of Sleepy Hollow are cursed to exist in the present day for only one weekend a year, he realizes the sacrifice he must make if he wants to keep her.
Katrina Van Tassel lives between slivers of time. She thought she was through grieving her betrothed’s death, but her dreams flare to life when his mirror image arrives, requesting a room. Drawn to Braeden, she’s taken to more erotic heights of intimacy than she ever imagined, but she can’t be sure if her heart is with him or the love from her past.
Knowing he must conquer both time and ghosts to keep the only woman he’s ever loved, Braeden must put the past to rest. But the dead may not rest in Sleepy Hollow.

“The Headless Horseman rides tonight
through stark and starless skies.
Shattering the silence
with his otherworldly cries.
He races through the darkness
on his alabaster steed.
The Headless Horseman rides tonight
wherever the fates would lead.”
By Jack Prelutsky
Take my hand dear reader as we step back in time…to the village of Sleepy Hollow. A village that as fate would have it, is on a different time line than the rest of our world. Forever cursed to be living one week in the 1700’s while a year passes in the present. Except for the small window of time when the Headless Horseman rides, and Oldtime and Newtime intersects from Midnight Thursday to Midnight Sunday.
Lexi Post has taken a classic tale and twisted it into a story that will have you racing through the pages looking for clues to unlocking the secrets of the curse. Braeden Van Brunt and Katrina Van Tassel’s story is so hawt, your heart will be galloping as if the very Horseman is chasing you. Will their love be strong enough to break the curse keeping Sleepy Hollow locked in the past? Or will those wishing to seek revenge keep them forever trapped in Oldtime?
The Legend of the Headless Horseman has always been one of my favs, and I LOVED this take on the classic! The Passion of Sleepy Hollow is a story I highly recommend!!

Braeden Van Brunt unwillingly takes the job of the headless horseman in the mysterious town of Sleepy Hollow. Braeden with his face hidden figures it will only be one night and with no place to stay begs Katrina “Kat” Van Tassel to stay in her hotel. Katrina relents to help Braeden out especially when he reveals himself. Kat can’t help but notice that Braeden looks surprisingly like her past betrothed, Brom. As Kat gets to know Braeden and falls for him there is one big secret of Sleepy Hollow that she must disclose soon. Braeden knows there is something not quite right about Sleepy Hollow but can’t figure out why the town disappears and he can’t find out anything about Kat. As Braeden gets closer to finding out the truth of Sleepy Hollow it puts the entire town in danger and the affection he is developing for Kat could end up hurting them both.
What an amazingly fantastic take on the Legend of Sleepy Hollow! The story immerses you in it and doesn’t let up until the very end! The engaging tale moves wonderfully along pulling you into the suspense and mystique of this little town. Sleepy Hollow seems like a magical scary place but somewhere great to visit. Even the side characters are just delightful! Yes, there are lots of hot steamy sex scenes but it doesn’t slow the story down either. Braeden the strong level-headed handsome hero is just a great hero to fall for and a great book boyfriend. Katrina the pretty elusive hotel owner heroine might be from a different era manages to be quite modern and easily relatable. Ms. Lexi Post just writes a tremendously stunning book that is well worth a read and definite keeper!

Another little gem from Ellora’s Cave of delights. I was pretty much already sold on the concept, as I loved the original ‘Legend of Sleepy Hollow’ when I was a little girl and had kind of felt betrayed by the recent TV series of the same name (good looking guy, disjointed and crappy plot!) So it was lovely to read something that lived up to the romantic notions I associate with this legend.
Kat felt very true to the original, and I was overjoyed with this. It’s pretty obvious that there was some research put into the story that went beyond watching the Johnny Depp movie, although any excuse to see a good looking guy in a frock coat! It would have been far too easy to simply create a new Kat, and in doing so would have lost much of its appeal.
From a writer’s perspective, the whole concept of ghosts out of time and a relationship that can break a curse is lovely and really does justify the saucy scenes. I can’t say this enough that a real story has to be behind an erotic romance – it’s really what separates lovely books, such as this one, from Playboy reader letters!
The front cover is pretty and has a six pack attention grabber, however I’d have really liked to have seen more of a period dress on there, after all it’s an intricate part of the story and, I don’t know about you, but I find it sexier for a man to be sporting a strategically opened flowing white shirt and an old fashioned hat than to be completely naked.
Overall I’d give The Passion of Sleepy Hollow 4 out 5 stars – If only Lexi had written the TV series!

Ok, pay attention. Braeden Van Brunt is from newtime which is like now. He is so ripped that women throw themselves at him constantly. It is such a problem that for the most part he doesn't leave his apartment unless he absolutely has to. When his beloved brother has a heart attack he faces one of those moments and agrees to play the part of the headless horseman in Sleepy Hollow. Trying to find a room for that night, he runs into innkeeper Katrina Van Tassel. He is mesmerized because she doesn't profess her undying love and desire to have his babies in the first 30 seconds of their meeting. What he doesn't know is that Katrina is in shock because he looks just like the love of her life who disappeared four years ago. Oh, and she and the village of Sleepy Hollow are in oldtime. The two only come together once a year in newtime and every weekend in oldtime. Still with me? It's ok. There's lots of sex to read about until it sinks in.
This is the second Lexi Post book I've read as a judge. What I like about her books is that she takes a well known legend (she has multiple degrees in multiple areas) and poses different scenarios from what we are used to reading. Lots of little mysteries, intrigue, jealousy and perhaps a touch of witchcraft make it an entertaining read.

Passion of Sleepy Hollow is a quirky twist on the original tale. I never really liked Brom or Ichabod the original story. Katrina's character in this story for me flushed out the personality of the Sleepy Hollow. Still, don't like Ichabod Crane and that's all I will say..... Again the story is an interesting twist of not only Sleepy Hollow but for me a mashup of SH and Brigadoon. Which is one of my favorite musicals.

If you love the classics, with a little heat, read this book. Lexi had a brilliant idea and turned it into a unique take on an old story. The unexpected characters are enjoyable and the plot is so interesting.

Good story. A bit confusing with the time swaps at first but I love time travel ideas and this was a fun take on an old story. Definitely worth the read.

I enjoyed some aspect of the book. It's a cute story, a lot of frustrating moments but I made it to the end. The characters are likable.

Miss Post has done an amazing job of writing an old classic tale into something new exciting and romantic as she transports us back in time where we learn all is not as it seems. I am constantly amazed at how the author manages to pull me in so quickly to her books she makes me always want to live in her worlds and or be a character.
Braeden Van Brunt is somewhat of a recluse when he gets asked by his brother to stand in and be the Headless Horseman…until he meets Katrina Van Tassel, The owner of the Sleepy Hollow Inn, who lures him in right from the front desk and into the bedroom.... her bedroom just to sleep in that is. When Braeden finds out that Kat and the whole village of Sleepy Hollow are cursed... they exist only in the present day for one weekend of the year, he soon realises the sacrifice he will have to make if he wants to keep his woman.
Katrina Van Tassel has been living between slivers of time. She had always thought that she was through with grieving for her betrothed’s death, but her dreams come to life when his near mirror-image arrives in her Inn requesting a room. She cannot help but be drawn to Braeden, she is taken to greater heights of passion and intimacy more than she ever imagined, but she still isn't sure if her heart and soul can be with him or with her past love.
Knowing that he has a fight on his hands to not only conquer both time and the very ghosts for him to keep the one and only woman that he has ever loved beyond anything, Braeden just has to put the past to rest so they can all have the happily ever after that they deserve.
This book is so magical it not only combines the past and the future but has elements of an amazing legend. I am in utter awe of Miss Post she is such an amazing writer finding the words to describe how much I love her is so hard but yet so easy.
My most favourite part of the book has to be how Braeden discovers everything is not as it seems and that he has to fight for Kat not just for her love but ghosts and curses as well...... he sure does fight a good fight.

Lexi Post has, once again, done what she does best. She has taken a story from classic literature, in this case, Washington Irving’s The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, and added her own unique spin to create something new, exciting and absolutely wonderful. And, of course, the sex scenes are SCORCHING and so beautifully written.
When Braeden Van Brundt, descendent of Brom Van Brundt, is asked to ride as the Headless Horseman during the Sleepy Hollow festival, he has no idea the town is stuck in a time warp, nor does he know he’ll be meeting one of the feistiest women he’s ever met, one that brings out all his feelings of tenderness and yes, love, despite the tragedies of his past. Katrina Van Tassel has always loved one man (Brom), the one who disappeared on the day of their wedding—that is, until Braeden walks into her Inn, looking for a room for the night. The fireworks begin right then and there.
Can Braeden and Kat break the curse that has kept Sleepy Hollow in the past? Oh, you’re gonna have to read this story to find out. You’re gonna love it! And, like me, you’ll be looking forward to Ms. Post’s next classic turned upside down!

I've always loved the story of sleepy hollow, so the telling of it in this book could've gone either way for me, either it was going to stay true to the story or go so far off the mark I would hate it !
What this author has done is keep the legend of Sleepy Hollow but focusing on the residents of the village to create a romantic love story that combines new time (present day) with old time.
Stuck in a timewarp, sleepy Hollow is only visible in newtime one weekend a year, Halloween, when The newtime descendant of the headless horseman rides through the village for their annual fair.
Braeden Van Brunt is that descendant and when he meets Katrina Van Tassel The independent and feisty owner of the Sleepy Hollow inn, something is set in motion that could either destroy the village or save it !
Braeden and Kat's sizzling passion is enough to leave scorch marks, I've never wanted to be a fictional character so much in my life as I want to be Katrina Van Tassel *blushes*
I loved this book, the combination of romance, The legend, intrigue and danger as the story unfolds and reaches its conclusion had me hooked to the very last page.

Wild Ride
What if the Headless Horseman was real, and all the people in Sleepy Hollow returned one weekend a year? Braeden is a descendant of one of the residents of Sleepy Hollow. Every year a member of his family has played the Headless Horseman in the 1790's based fair. But what Braeden does not know is that the people and the village are only in his time that one weekend. When Braeden has an affair with the lovely innkeeper, he is determined to unravel the mystery of her disappearance. He has to wait an entire year to learn anything, but when he does return to Sleepy Hollow he and Katrina go on a wild ride filled with mystery, mysticism, jealousy, betrayal, and a quick burning passion that slowly builds into something more. The characters in the book were wonderful, very real, not just fantasy heroes. Braeden is a big, strong man, but he also has a lot of insecurities. Katrina is a strong willed woman, with enough heart and soul to hold them together. And I love the secret relationship, and wannabe relationships, going on in the background. This was a fun read.

Wow! The author takes a classic tale and creates an amazing steamy romance with some magical twists.
"Passion of Sleepy Hollow" by Lexi Post. This is Braeden Van Brunt and Katrina Van Tassel's story.
Sleepy Hollow is under a curse so the town is only in the present time one weekend of the year then it disappears.
Braeden is filling in for his brother as the Headless Horseman for the weekend festivities in the village of Sleepy Hollow. He is a shy and reserved guy and doesn't really want to do it but agrees for his brother. Braeden has no idea how his life is going to change after setting foot into Sleepy Hollow.
Katrina runs the Sleepy Hollow Inn where she first meets Braeden. They have an immediate connection from the start. But, how will this work when Kartina is only there one weekend out of the year? Will they be able to break the curse?
A great story with sexy and steamy scenes with an entertaining plot that is beautifully written.
FYI, includes mature content. I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

One of the best homages a writer can give to a classic or well loved story is when they truly make it their own. To pull it out of the world it once lived in and recreate it as something that makes you see it in an entirely new light. Lexi Post doesn't only give you a new taste of Sleepy Hollow and it's legend with this novel she pretty much remaps your taste buds! This is an effing amazekittens read!

A great take on a classic tale of the Headless Horseman.
Braeden Van Brunt had the job of playing the Headless Horseman for a reenactment in a historical village. Strange things happen here and once he leaves, the villages appears to have vanished.
Katrina the Inn keeper is a woman he cannot stop thinking about. Some time later when it's time to play his role again the village reappears and time seems to have stood still...or rather back in the 1700s.
He and Kat must defeat the curse, a ghost and superstitious villagers in order to bring the village of Sleepy Hollow into the future.
The story was fun, adventurous and there was plenty of steam between the main characters. The villagers were interesting...love them or hate them.
A great paranormal tale and well worth the read.

Stuck in between time, Kat has lived many years but truly aged slowly. The love of her life left her at the altar, and she held onto his memory. Into her life comes Braeden and turns everything upside down. Their attraction is instant but does she love him or her lost love he resembles? It takes separation, letting go of the past, ending a curse to allow these two to be happy. Kat is a strong woman willing to do what is necessary. Braeden is a strong man who knows how to be gentle with the right woman. Their love truly crosses time and held me enthralled. I loved this story full of love, danger, ghosts, curses and highly recommend it.
I received a copy of this story in exchange for an honest review.

I'd never read any of Ms. Post's writing, but this story had just the right mixture of modern day mystery with magic and sexy in the blurb. I picked it up the day it came out and read it slowly, savoring every little bit of tale in it. Do you love the legend of the Headless Horseman? This has a very cool and exciting modern spin on it and I loved that both the heroine and the hero had growing and learning to do. Kat is stuck in the past, literally and emotionally, while Braeden is stuck in the present, with his mind in the past. Neither of them is looking for love, but both want a connection and a way out of their restrictive worlds. Too bad there are folks who'd really like to keep them apart...especially those who engineered the curse of Sleepy Hollow. Great tale and fun read.

As if the Legend of Sleepy Hollow (set in the 1790’s), with a headless horseman and a school master’s disappearance isn’t eerie enough, Ms. Lexi Post puts a very unique spin on this classic to create a brilliant storyline. Yeah, steamy sex scenes, time warps, ghosts, and superstitions are woven together to create the storyline that keeps you wanting more. Did I mention steamy, page curling sex? The characters are perfectly matched and the dynamics between them is off the charts. It was a little longer read but I knocked it out in a couple of evenings. Love it! Awesome read! I highly recommend it.

I struggled with the beginning of this story, and in all honesty if I wasn't reading to review I probably would have given up, which would have been a shame.
Once I got over the authors like for using unusual similes (which tended to throw me out not endear me) I found myself immersed in the plot. Drawn into this unusual world, and how the 'old world' and 'new worl' came to co-exist!
The sexy time was 'interesting' because of the time era's.
All in all a jolly good bit of escapism!
