This is a dark contemporary stalker romance. Please check trigger warnings on the author's website before reading.
Tiff
I’ve watched Riot Crossbourne from the shadows for years—drummer, heartbreaker, the boy who never looked twice at me since we met in high school. But I’m not the same girl I used to be.
He doesn’t know his anonymous stalker is me. Not when I slipped into his DMs under a fake name. Not when I told him all the filthy things I wanted him to do to me. I’ve planned my reveal down to the very last wicked detail.
Now his band is blowing up and playing a home show this Halloween night. It’s the perfect time for all of my hard work to come together. When I finally step out of the shadows to fulfill one of his darkest fantasies, he’ll never see it coming—and by the time he figures out who I really am, he won’t want to leave.
If you're just looking for a novella with tons of spice, also with a twist where the FMC is the stalker, then you might like giving this a read. But I will say that the spice was really the only thing I thought was worthwhile, unfortunately. In fact, I rounded up my rating because of it
I was intrigued at first by the female being the stalker, and I also enjoy rockstar romances as well. But the whole story, the writing, the dialogue, and the connection between the characters collectively fell flat for me :/
This Halloween romance novella has psychotic stalker themes from the very beginning. Tiffany Hargreaves has been obsessed with Riot Crossbourne ever since high-school. She lives and breathes him and can't seem to find a way to express her feelings without coming across as a crazy psycho.
Riot hasn't had much luck with the ladies, not for lack of trying, but it just seems as though it never ends well when things start to heat up. He isn't sure if maybe its because he might want something more or if he is just unlucky. After a show, he receives messages from a mystery woman that seems to express interest in him. Could his luck change?
Tiffany has always been around the band, but she was always an afterthought. No one has ever considered hooking up with her and she hasn't exactly told anyone about her feelings towards Riot. She decides to create a plan that may seem risky but might get Riot to see that she is the woman of his dreams.
Could a relationship that started out unconventional really work out? Normally when someone is obsessed with another, its considered unhealthy and scary. Could Riot reciprocate Tiffany's feelings? Or will things spiral and he ends up six feet under. This book is worth checking out if you're in need of a quick read before Halloween.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ Let me just start off by saying I devoured this book! It was whole heartedly everything I expected and more!
Sexy ✨slightly✨ obsessed FMC Stalker? Uhm hxll yea… sign me up 😝
Tiff has been obsessed with Riot since high school and Riot, well he’s your hot drummer with girls flirting with him left and right, but uh, Tiff she’s not too keen on the other girls part. 😂🥴 Riot is in for the ride of his life…literally.
It’s obsession, it’s gonna make you need a fan cause hot isn’t even the word for it and flips the stalker trope in the best way possible, Tiff is the epitome of “I will do anything for you. Literally.”
This novella is a interconnected standalone(if you haven’t read it yet Wicked Delivery is the first book) but good god this book gives you all the feels, it’ll give you the giggles for sure, you’ll be shocked, confused(mainly secondhand confusion) 😂, heartbroken, hot and bothered 😝😮💨 and inlove all within a short time span. It’s definitely a rollercoaster of emotions but it’s so so good!
All in all, 10/10 I will whole heartedly recommend you read this…asap! 🖤✨I absolutely loved it and I hope you will too!
Tropes: FMC stalker small town romance Drummer MMC secret identity she falls first Halloween romance Dual POV
Trigger Warnings: stalker somnophilia CNC drugs
If you've not read R.Snow's Wicked novellas, I highly recommend them. They're all (so far) Halloween night themed and I love them. Also, I was not expecting them to be interconnected stand-alones but they were! I loved seeing the couple from Wicked Delivery in this book again. That was fun!
In Wicked Obsession, we get just that. Obsession. Tiff has been obsessed with Riot since high school. He views her as a friend of his rock band. She's out to prove that she's the only woman for him. Only... her methods are borderline, pyscho? LOL That's Riot's words! She stalks him, drugs women who gets close to him, breaks into his home, and has his photos all over her wall. Yeah, I'd say a little bit pyscho, but honestly.... I was into it haha
It's not often you read a female stalker book. I mean we all like it when the MMC does the stalking, so why not let the FMC have her moment? While I think Tiff was a lot at first, she grew on me, I mean we can't fault the girl for going after what she wants, right? ;) Those scenes that takes place after Halloween night... that was sexy (no spoilers!). Definitely didn't see that ending coming in the way it played out but I think it was a fun twist!
If you like stalker vibes, Halloween nights, and role playing, I highly recommend checking this one out!
Okay… wow. Wicked Obsession completely lived up to its name — wickedly fun, wildly addictive, and so deliciously naughty. R. Snow absolutely delivered with this one! The chemistry between the characters was off-the-charts, and every scene had that perfect mix of tension, teasing, and pure spice.
I loved how playful it all felt — the banter, the boldness, the way it didn’t take itself too seriously while still giving me butterflies and heart-thumping moments. It’s one of those books that you pick up “just to read a few pages” and suddenly it’s 2 a.m. and you’re fanning yourself.
If you love your romance hot, a little wicked, and a lot of fun, this one’s a must-read. R. Snow has definitely earned a spot on my auto-buy list after this. 😈✨
Wicked Obsession is exactly that and more!! This is Tiff and Riot’s novella that is a rockstar romance filled with hidden identity/female stalker vibes and spice. I love how the story takes place around Halloween and the obsession is only heightened when she finally comes clean with him. I love their chemistry and how they are both obsessed and possessive of each other. I enjoyed their story and can’t wait to read more.
I voluntarily leave an honest review of this gifted advance readers copy.
Anything R. Snow writes ends up being absolutely amazing and this was no different. I loved seeing a female stalker. Tiff was just a girl in love who was invisible to the guy she loved. She was always there but Riot never fully noticed her until the night she sneaks into his room. I am obsessed with how their relationship unfolded and I’m so glad Riot was able to hear her out in the end 🫶
Tiff is a bit unhinged in the most polite way lol. Trust me, you'll see once you read Wicked Obsession. She is a bit stalkerish, a bit obsessed, and truly only wants what is best for Riot. All the while Riot is just trying to get his rocks off with the closest female possible.
This novella is fast paced and we get to the meat of the interactions between Riot and Tiff where he figures out who his stalker is.. but makes it clear that he isn't ready for them to be more because he has to wrap his head around her being down bad for him.
I really loved this fast paced novella just in time for fall. It brings all the cozy, dark, fall vibes.
Thank you to the author for an advance reader copy in exchange for an honest review.
Wow, where do I even start with Wicked Obsession? This book flipped the script on the typical stalker storyline, and let me just say—I've never had so much fun with a female lead who's totally obsessed! Tiff’s fascination with Riot had me laughing and cringing all at once, and by the end, it was hilarious to see Riot struggle with the realization he just couldn't shake his stalker off.
Tiff’s dedication to getting Riot’s attention was on another level. I mean, this girl has been crushing on him for years, and when she finally decides to make her move, you won’t believe how far she goes! Poor Riot is left in this whirlwind of confusion as he tries to process his feelings.
Let me tell you, I breezed through this novella! The steamy scenes had me thoroughly entertained! And that epilogue? It left me buzzing with excitement. I'm beyond eager to see what other mischief the other band members are up to—if their stories are anything like Tiff and Riot’s, I’m here for all the heat!
Another ARC in the books that I’m glad I signed up for. This book probably isn’t for everyone, I mean check your trigger warnings first, however it was… amazing.
A slightly unhinged FMC with a plan to get the rocker MMC. Man, after this sign me up for a drummer as well. Does her plan work? Does it fail?
I do have to say, I started Wicked Obsession and the pages quickly turned, and all the sudden it was done! Thank you, R. Snow for this ARC novella.
This was a nice switch to have the stalker the FMC. Tiffany definitely knew exactly what she wanted, Riot, and stopped at nothing to get his attention.
This was a quick, I mean quick read, at 150 pages, it was less than 2 hours. However, there was quick character building, quick plot, spice, and a masked FMC 😎😎 Cannot go wrong with this!
The way I devoured this novella! I've never read a book with a female stalker before and damn, does Tiff really go all out for Riot. Plus the CNC/Somno scenes were delicioussss! And the epilogue?! I don’t think I’ve been that giddy in a long time!
I can't wait to read about the other two members of the band we keep seeing little peeks from because I know their stories will be just as hot as this and the last one!
First definitely check the trigger warnings before reading this book. This is a reverse Stalker romance where SHE stalks HIM. She has been obsessed with him since high school but he never seen her as anyone but part of the group. So she does whatever she thinks she needs to to finally be seen by him. Again, Check Trigger Warnings! Happy Reading Everyone!

This was a wild, short ride. Like the craziest Rollercoaster. Tiff was cuckoo Bananas for her "man" Riot before he even noticed her. I dont want to spoil anything, but she went to some lengths to get her man. I enjoyed the switch of the Female Stalker rather than the male stalker. Once Tiff & Riot came together, it was explosive.The only bad thing I would say is that at times, the writing seemed a little disjointed. Otherwise, I thoroughly enjoyed.
MAKE SURE YOU CHECK THE TRIGGER WARNINGS BEFORE YOU READ THIS BOOK.
Why do the men always get to wear the masks and do the stalking? While rocker romances usually aren't my favorite, all of the tropes in this one just called to me, and I had to give it a go. They went to high school together, and he never gave her the chance, but it didn't stop her from wanting him all these years. And it hasn't stopped her from watching him, either. This was sexy, dark, and a quick read. Oh, and she was the one that got to wear the mask ;-)
My first Halloween novella of the season and I thoroughly enjoyed the ride! Stalker romances are some of my favorite, but I’ve never read a book where the FMC is a stalker and I must say, I’m obsessed!
Tiff’s had an obsession with Riot, drummer of a rock band, since high school and always lurked in the shadows as his number one fan. She’s driven away every woman that comes close to Riot and has her sights set on making him HERS and only hers.
Is Tiffany absolutely crazy?! Yes! Did she cross boundaries and lines? Yes! Did I love it? Hell yes! 😏 It was so refreshing and fun to have the roles switched and be inside the head of an obsessed woman. And my girl had it so damn bad for this man!
Check your triggers for this read, because both characters had some serious kinks. But if you are a professional dark romance reader, have some fun and enjoy the ride! 😈 It even had an emotional twist that I didn’t expect.
“Riot had a heart of pure gold, and he deserved someone who truly saw him for what he was. And I knew I was that person. No one knew him better than I did.”
“I would do anything for this man. If he wanted to walk me around like a pet, I would get on all fours and bark for him.”
If you’re looking for a quick, spicy read with all the stalker and dark romance vibes this Halloween, add this book and playlist to your tbr! 🔥🔥
Tiff has been OBSESSED with the drummer, Riot, for years! And when I say obsessed, I mean photos all over her bedroom walls obsessed. She has created a fake name on a dating site to be able to communicate with him and come up with a plan to finally be with him. You gotta give her credit for going after what she wants, she just doesn’t do it in the most conventional way. And poor Riot, he is so confused by his emotions of it all, he is furious and turned on all at the same time. And Halloween night, whew talk about spicy, she makes one of his fantasies come true and blows his mind, in many ways. And that ending, definitely didn’t see that coming.
If you’ve been searching for a book where she’s the obsessive stalker, the one who makes noises go bump in the night, then this is for you. I felt like I couldn’t wait to see what what this chick did next. Loved that!
I love it when a girl goes for what she wants, patiently waits for the right timing, and surprises the crap out of me. In fact, this book sucked me in so hard I didn’t realize that it was after 2 am until I finished.
TW: this is an adult book. Please read responsibly. There are some dark themes and kinks 💋 check the list babes. In this story the main characters explore their darker fantasies. I think it fits the cute little psycho vibe perfectly.
This was a quick and spicy “Halloween” vibes novella. This wasn’t your typical stalker romance, since the rolls were a little reversed. Tiff is the stalker in this story and I was absolutely here for it. She’s giving borderline delulu and we love it 😂 Riot wanted nothing to do with her, until he learned what she was really like after dark. The two of them together were explosive & the spice was hot af. Please check your triggers on this one but if you’re looking for a spicy, spooky read then this is it ladies!
So grateful for the author and for Torchlitink for allowing me the opportunity to be an ARC reader for Wicked Obsession. Now onto my non-spoiler review!
This book was such an amazing palette cleanser! Such a fun, quick paced Halloween type of novella. I feel like the premise of having the female main character be the stalker in this book was such a good change of pace from the other books that I read with the stalker trope. To have someone have their eyes set on you from high school until now and going as far as making an anonymous account and doing other things to try and keep your attention…it definitely gave the stalkerish vibes that were promised. The spice was spicing for sure in this novella and Riot and Tiff definitely had their picture perfect happy ending which I am honestly glad that they did. I quite liked this authors writing and I definitely want to read more from this author!
It is in the name, I am obsessed with this book!!! I loved the first book in this series and I was so exicted when I saw this one was coming out. When I saw it was Riot and Tiff, I was so exicted and oh boy this man was in for a ride and I enjoyed it the whole time. I could not put this book down, I was just sucked in devoring every word and page until the end. Tiff loved her I was hoping we would get to learn more about her during Wicked Delivery. I loved the female stalker aspect its not ever done, usually its the MMC being the stalker and I love it but seeing the FMC charcter being the stalker and the anon one was so much fun. I loved Tiff and Riot's story so much and I can't wait to see who is next in the band!! Also the ending 10/10 loveddddd it trust me you want to read this book.
Althought book is short it is packed with all the goods! It was nice to see a switch-up with the FMC being the one obsessed. I haven't read many books with that being the case, so that was a nice switch. I liked how the MMC reacted to the obsessed FMC. This book is packed with party-themes, a rocker boy, and some spicy Instagram DMs.
If you’re looking for a fast and easy, read where the FMC is the stalker then this just might be the novella for you. I personally will say I was not really interested in this story. I thought that it was going to give off more Halloween vibes, and the only Halloween vibes that gave was the fact that it started on Halloween. Other than that, there’s really no Halloween vibes.
I thought the female being in the stalker was a cool twist. But honestly, I couldn’t relate to her or to him. I was not in love with her as a character. I found her annoying and very juvenile. The whole story kind of fell flat for me. It could just be that it’s not meant for me as well.
This short and spicy Halloween-themed novella follows a female main character who’s been secretly obsessed with the male lead since high school. After years of being overlooked and let down by him, she comes up with a bold plan for Halloween night, one that hides her identity and aims to finally make him notice her, desire her, and maybe even fall for her the way she has for him.
But will her plan work? Will he discover who she really is? And what will happen once the masks come off? You’ll have to read to find out. A steamy read with an engaging storyline that keeps you hooked until the end!
The ending was good. P.S. read the trigger warnings.
It was refreshing to read a book where the roles are reversed and the FMC is the obsessive stalker… Tiff was a sweet character but slightly unhinged with her lifelong obsession with drummer Riot!
It was such a fun read I really enjoyed it. Although I felt the time between Riot being furious with her and scared for his life to him suddenly falling in love with her was a little rushed it was still a great little read.
Ahhh this book was so cute. I love Tiff and Riot. I want more. They need to have babies and more books 😂 A perfect book to get you ready for Halloween and super short read! Make sure you read all the triggers.
I had the pleasure of receiving this as an e-ARC and will voluntarily be giving my honest review. I have to say this was the first book that I have read with a female stalker, and I devoured it. Tiff and Riot were something else she gave him a run for his money!! I cant wait to see how the other band members play out in the next book!!
