This Halloween is Cursed: A Dark Romantic comedy novella
Not yet published
Expected 31 Oct 26Andrew Pritchard has two problems.
He's been obsessed with Vivian Jackson since high school.
And he reads far too much dark romance.
As the tattooed, Welsh frontman of underground rock band Dark Distortion, Andrew knows how to command a stage-but getting the woman he's secretly yearning for is a different story. So he does what any rational thirty-three-year-old man would do.
Create a bucket list. Based on the things he loves in dark romance novels.
And this Halloween, he stops fantasizing.
Step Kidnap the woman he's been yearning for.
Step Tie her up in a secluded cabin.
Step Make his morally gray dreams come true-for one night only (and hopefully she'll fall in love with him).
Vivian quickly realizes that her kidnapper is the rockstar she has been crushing on. But it seems he has absolutely learned this from fiction and he's completely winging it.
She'd be offended-if it weren't so hot how clumsy he's being about it.
But Halloween spirals fast. Because while Andrew is busy playing morally gray hero, two real serial killers are hunting in the same woods.
What starts as a fantasy becomes a fight for survival-all within one chaotic, tension-filled night.
And by sunrise?
They'll have to decide what's the killers in the woods or finally admitting they've wanted each other all along.

Review of advance copy received from Author
What happens when a kidnapping goes completely wrong and an obsessive rockstar has a dark romance bucket list he’s determined to check off? Apparently, absolute Halloween chaos.
This dark romcom was such a fun mix of second chance romance, masked stalking, mutual pining, and golden retriever/black cat energy. Add in an obsessive rockstar who is more than ready to make his dark romance fantasies a reality, and I was sold.
It’s unhinged, funny, spicy, and perfectly Halloween-y—with just the right amount of “Sir… what are you doing?!” energy.
