Trick or Treat: The Alternate Ending
Scarlett was a good girl, always followed the rules and did what she was supposed to, until one night everything changed. A night out with her friends, and one of them ends up dead. Now a secret is kept within their sacred group, but as the year passes, each one either vanishes or ends up dead…except her. When strange things start happening around her, she begins to panic and worry that she’ll become the next one to meet her fate. When Halloween comes around, the anniversary of the death of her friend, she finds herself held captive in the hands of four dangerous, masked strangers, and they’re out to make this Halloween one that she’ll never forget.

Spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️
Darkness: 😈😈😈😈😈
That was some fvcked up sh!t.
This is definitely NOT a romance, and there is no morally gray to be seen. The morals of this book have up and run. Hearts are dark and full of sin here. The men of this horror story proudly fly their red flags (and no, they're not the red flags that look kinda sorta green if you squint a bit... These are bloody and gory, grab your daughters, run screaming for the hills, demonic red flags).
The horrors that are endured by Scarlett cannot (and SHOULD NOT) be topped. If you're looking for dark, this is it. If you're looking for something that will keep you gasping and spike your anxiety, this is for you.
And the spice! The spice SHOULD NOT be this good, considering the circumstances (but it is 🫠). And it's pretty well sprinkled throughout the whole story. There is absolutely no slow burn anything here.
Bottom line: I devoured this, licking up every last drop and even went back for more 🥵 (Several passages are well worth an immediate re-read!). I can't wait for another book by K. M. Rogness.
I highly suggest reading the trigger warnings, or just steering clear of this all together if happily ever afters or redemption arcs are a must for you. This is not for the faint of heart, and dare I say, not for the morally white either 😈

Halloween came early this year. This is for the dark romance readers only! Next time someone asks for the darkest, most disturbing thing I've ever read, I'm recommending this with no hesitation. It is very dark and I almost don't want to call it romance 😂. I don't recommend this if you're new to dark romance, but you do you. Make sure you check the trigger warnings, like I said, this one is DARK.

I couldn’t put it down, it pulled me in, swung me round, threw me at a wall, grabbed my hair and spun me to the floor…yep! It did all that. It’s one of those reads where you want to grab the female and shake her but in the same vain you want to be her, iykyk lol I can’t start with the guys because I really didn’t gel with any of them, if you take it upon yourself to read the book you may find the same affects you or you may like them, that’s how this storyline gets you 🤷🏻♀️
AND, just when you think you’ve figured it out, she throws in a twist or two or three. I loved it, it gripped me, it shook me and it left me going wtf!
“The entire experience was a confusing clusterfuck and I struggled with it”

This is the perfect spooky time horror book to read, it’s dark, twisted erotic horror that pulls you in from the start and keeps you on the edge of your seat.
It’s filled with blood, gore, with twists and turns you don’t see coming. The spice will have you looking for a dry spot to sit and finish this book. And the ending oh the ending is masterful
I didn’t read the first version though I do own it. Now I’m wondering what the difference is.

This is a first from the author. The cover and title grabbed my attention right away. I thought the characters and plot were beautifully done. I was totally immersed in this story. And… the twist at the end 😮 The end game is not what I saw coming at all and was unexpectedly saddened by it. Job well done by the author.

Before reading I highly suggest to read the TWs!
I devoured this book and absolutely loved every bit of it. This book was absolutely perfect for spooky season. Four masked men who are absolutely unhinged and obsessed with the Fmc. The ending was a mindfuck and totally unexpected but I loved it no HEA, or was it.

I received this book as an ARC & wasn't sure what to expect. This book was so dark, twisted & full of spice. The ending tugged at my heart strings no matter how screwed up it was. I did not see the twist coming with Saint & it blew me away when everything was revealed.

“You don't order me around, mother f^ker.
If I want to kiss Saint, I will. If I want to f^k Saint, I will. You order your b!tch around, not me. Got it?"
SCARLET—- She was just a girl going to college in Salem. Everything changed after Halloween one year. She was none the wiser and yet she didn’t run either. The masked men intrigued her as well as scared her. She has secrets of her own.
"Don't worry, pretty little thing. We're not going to hurt you. Not yet, anyway. And when we do, I promise you're gonna fucking love it."

KM Rogness has delivered another jaw-dropping, dark, and twisted masterpiece with an alternately ended version of her book, Trick or Treat. This book is a why choose erotic horror, and it's exactly the kind of disturbing and demented ride that fans of dark romance crave. From the spicy, steamy scenes to the pulse-pounding plot, I couldn't put it down!
I absolutely love KM Rogness's writing style. She has a way of weaving intense, spicy moments into a solid storyline that keeps you hooked from start to finish. Trick or Treat had me eagerly flipping pages, and the alternate ending? Let me just say, Rogness did not disappoint! It was everything I hoped for and more. If you're a fan of dark books with horror and plenty of spice, this one is going to knock your socks off (among other things).
The cover is gorgeous, and I’m completely obsessed with it. It perfectly captures the dark, seductive energy of the book.
But let me be clear—this is a dark book. KM Rogness doesn't shy away from pushing boundaries, and the story is pretty demented in the best way possible. It's essential to read the trigger warnings before diving in. If you're a fan of dark romance, you’ll love it, but don’t go in blind and then be surprised that it’s disturbing—it’s meant to be.
Shoutout to the author for letting me ARC read this book in exchange for an honest review.

* Read the trigger warnings
I absolutely LOVE this book and it is one that I recommend quite often. I adored the original that came out in Feb and I feel the same with version as well. I was so stoked to reread it.
These men do some DERANGED and HORRIBLE things to Scarlett. Saint, Riley, Blade and Nixon are your dream men that are unhinged, tatted, built and morally pitch black lunatics.
Scarlett IS feminine rage. She fights them at every turn. I love her.
This spicy smut is top notch high level! It shouldn’t be this good in such a dark plot. It is a highly sexual book where the spice is in almost every chapter.
This reworked version has a bit of a different ending and more secrets were revealed. I love books that do not have a HEA or even a typical HEA.
YOU DO NOT GET A HEA.

An erotic horror
This is one fucked up book.
AND I LOVED IT
For Scarlett one night changes everything and when four masked men who are all equally demented, disturbed and bad shit crazy hold her captive. Can she escape?
This is not a romance and I definetly only recommend if you love not only morally grey but morally black characters as this is dark.
This is fast paced, lots of WTF scenes that I had to do a re-read (so I could actually understand everyones positions

This book was crazy! It was one of the most disturbing stories I have had the pleasure of reading. It was a good horror involving very unhinged characters. I absolutely loved the ending. I recommend this to horror fans who enjoy a bit of primal play thrown into the mixture. Please read trigger warnings.

I enjoyed this book a lot! It had an interesting set of of intermixed past and present points and included an interesting relationship between all of the characters! The ending was my favorite part but you’ll have to read to figure out how it all goes!! Perfect spooky time read!

Tbh this book was horrible. The plot and everything was good but the amount of spelling and grammar mistakes were tragic. Also it’s like the details couldn’t be kept straight. It’s like the bouncing back and forth got too confusing for the author. I just idk this wasn’t it. It was chaos.

I love all things Halloween including my dark romance/smut! This hits like a fine wine on a Fall night after running through the cornfields, being chased by a masked man of course!
October 5, 2024
Trick or Treat is not a romance novel by any means, but did I still devour it? Yes, yes I did. This erotic horror has morally BLACK male characters that do the most depraved and psychotic acts to our FMC. This book had me on the edge of my seat wondering what would happen next and how it could possibly end.
If you’re one for HEA’s or an “I can change him/her” trope, this book is NOT for you. The ending was a bit of a twist and had my anxiety through the roof, but once again, KM Rogness made it so enjoyable! The spice in this book was sprinkled throughout and absolutely deranged, but was so good despite the condition of all characters involved.
Though I really enjoyed this book and would 100% recommend it to dark romance lovers, its contents aren’t for everyone so PLEASE read the content and trigger warnings before reading. Your mental health matters!

This book was dark, it was gory, it was horrifying, and I loved it 🤣🫣 I seriously question the stuff I'm into sometimes! The scenes in this book were so detailed, it really bought the dark aspect to life! This was the best erotic horror I've read so far! If you can handle the TW's in this book, you'll definitely fall in love with it🤗

Looking for a book that will have you questioning your sanity? Trick or Treat is the book for you!
K.M. Rogness has delivered a pitch black masterpiece full of blood, smut, and tears.
*Check your TWs with this one, it is NOT for the faint of heart*
If you’re into deranged masked men that enjoy the sight of blood and they are downright obsessed- Blade, Saint, Nixon, and Riley are waiting for you…. RUN.
Scarlett gives off all the Final Girl energy. She had a tragic past but she stayed focused and worked hard to make something of herself. She has no family and her friends are all she has. When a Halloween accident results in her friends disappearing, Scar worries she’s next. Attracting 4 unhinged men was not part of the plan. Can she outsmart and outlast a group of psychos?
The ending had me turning pages so fast! I did not see the twist coming but damnnn it was so good! There are some graphic scenes that are not for everyone but I was so impressed with how well they were written!
Things you’ll find in Trick or Treat:
☠️ Why Choose
🖤 Erötǐc Horror
☠️Pitch Black MMCs
🖤 Masked Stalkers
☠️ Twisted sëx games
🖤 Psychological torment
☠️ Halloween/cemetery setting
Do yourself a favour and read this one for Halloween!

Who wants a wild dark ride, with 4 masked men, a bunch of unaliving, delicious & probably some spice you feel like you shouldn’t be enjoying 🤣 (talking about the finger scene 👀), and a fxcked up ending??? Then you will LOVE this book. Scarlett and her friends experience something horrific and it pretty much goes down hill from there. 🤣 I didn’t want it to endddd! This is a debut from this author and I will def be reading more! It checked all the boxes I want from a horror er0tica.

All readers have limits and this book is mine. I've read dark romance with horror elements and n0nc0n/dubc0n before but none have made me go 'nope I'm out' like this one has. So I'm very confused as to how to rate this book, I finished it so it's NOT 1⭐️ (as that's only reserved for books I DNF) but it's also left me wanting to bleach my eyeballs 😅

I sooooo badly wanted to love this book and there were parts that definitely had me hooked and absolutely on the edge of my seat. You really have to understand that this is not a romance AT ALL and the triggers are very very heavy and it is super dark and twisted. There’s a kind of Halloween/Scream meets I Know What You Did Last Summer vibe and I was definitely there for those vibes. The part that kinda lost me was the alternating between the guys names and mask colors(even when not wearing masks) and the constant drugging of the characters when it’s later clarified that sometimes they aren’t actually on drugs but are just (without explanation or real ties to the main plot) having a serious mental health episode (that isn’t an accurate portrayal of that disorder(and it’s not previously mentioned or stated why). Also, I kept wondering when the police were gonna follow up with some of the things that happen because they pop in here and there and there is news footage about the things that happen but the SHEER AMOUNT of deaths and unalivjng in this seemingly small town(particularly involving this small group of interwoven people) is rather suspicious. All of that aside, the story was really entertaining and I’m definitely looking forward to reading more by this author.

—ARC disclaimer. I received this Ebook from the publisher in return for review. My opinion is my own.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!!!
Now THIS is a traumance. Great storyline, great character building and world building even in a short amount of book time, and made me want a sequel. Scarlett was a great FMC, and the Boys ™️ were so bad they were just great. This opens up on Halloween with an accident, drugs, death, stalking, and a whole lot of weird. Scarlett is a whole big fan of being a dumbass 🫠 and not being aware of her surroundings, the people around her or even just herself tbh. The finger event will have me in my feelings for a while I think. But the end? I definitely didn’t see that coming. Scarlett definitely got her shit together enough for that. Wow. This was a great short read, and one I would recommend. READ. THE. TRIGGER. WARNING. LIST. listen you your gut; and if you can’t handle death, sex, dismemberment, and a whole lot of fucked up, this definitely isn’t the book for you. But if you’re a fan of a traumance (hey there I see you 👀 come say hi over on my Instagram) this is a GREAT opportunity to sip on some deliciously tainted tequila.

4.5⭐️ | 5 💥 - we skipped past 🔥… go read my ratings on my profile if you don’t comprehend 😉
This went above and beyond being a bag ‘o horrific twisted delights with some hardcore 💥💥💥💥💥 popping off and I am not complaining one single bit!
General romance readers - this likely isn’t your book, unless of course you’re a dark smut/horror veteran - then this is what romance is made of! Either way, I challenge you to read - it’s well worth the effort. Just make sure you sus out the trigger warnings first - they’re extensive! And mental health matters, so please be mindful.
K.M. Rogness has the ability to crawl inside your messiness and trigger even the least unfazed of us.
I will say though, that despite the potential tortures of this delicious mind fuck, I’ll definitely reread at a later date - likely more than once - as it’s so difficult to find really good quality dark thriller/horror that keeps you guessing. And there’s rarely enough willing to push the envelope so to speak…! So when I do come across writing of this caliber, I’m coming back for more.
Expect the unexpected and know that Trick or Treat will haunt your traumatised a$$ ‘til the end of time ✨😈💥
Enjoy!
