Elara M. Ravensong

Lost in the woods on Halloween, Lila never thought she’d step straight into a world of shadows and old curses. One breath she’s running from glowing eyes in the trees, the next she’s staring at a man shifting between beast and protector.

Ronan has lived under the curse for years, tied to the forest and the moon that twists his body. Every connection he’s made has ended in betrayal or blood. Then Lila shows up defiant, unshaken by danger and something inside him won’t let her slip away.

A storm drives them into his cabin, where the fire throws restless light across the walls and desire sparks hotter than the flames. Each touch drags them deeper into a fate neither chose. The rival pack circles, hungry for blood. The curse demands its price. Ronan knows that loving him could cost Lila everything.

But she’s not afraid of monsters or the man beneath the growl. She’ll fight for him, even if it means embracing a future she can’t control.

Will their desire survive the forest’s curse, or will the night take them both?

This story is one of the unforgettable nights of Halloween Heat, where love and danger burn together.

In the season when shadows stretch long and desire runs hottest, five forbidden romances take root under the spell of Halloween. From glittering masquerade halls thick with secrets to haunted woods stalked by cursed beasts, each story reveals a love born in danger and fed by the dark. Vampires, witches, shifters, ghosts, and fae every one tangled in passion too fierce to ignore.

Each tale stands alone, yet together they shape a world where kisses linger like smoke, where every touch sparks heat, and every night hides both terror and temptation. Halloween Heat isn’t just a holiday it’s where the heart gives in to the dark.
