Genre: Dark Fantasy, Paranormal, Romance LGBTQ+ Category: Gay Reviewer: Maryann Get It On Amazon | Publisher About The Book Halloween is supposed to be a night for safe scares and harmless tricks, not terror … or romance. College student Colin agrees to take his little cousin trick-or-treating, anticipating nothing worse than having to shepherd a bunch of sugar-crazed third-graders and a poorly-trained puppy. When the kids run ahead to peek into the local supposedly-haunted house, it seems like a harmless bit of mischief until the puppy crawls through a basement window and is lost. Colin promises to get her back. … Read more

If anyone is trying to wake some dark spirits, tonight’s the night. Halloween is here (Oct. 31), along with a full “blue moon” — meaning the second full moon in a single month. All Hallow’s Eve full moons are rare enough, occurring about once every 19 years. But this is the first time since 1944 that trick-or-treating has lined up with a blue moon, according to the Farmer’s Almanac. The spooky lightshow in the sky should begin soon enough for even the earliest candy-hunters. Moonrise should happen between 5:50 and 6:40 p.m. local time across most of the United States, … Read more
