About this book

The Headless Horseman can't possibly be real... or can he?

I’m back in Hollow’s End, the one place I never thought I’d return to. People say my family’s cursed. But I don’t believe in curses.

Even when I start hearing the hoofbeats follow me at night. Even when I start seeing a strange figure on a horse.

It’s all just legend and gossip.

Until I start forming a connection with the strange horseman. I mean, it’s been a long time since I was interested in someone, so can you blame me for wanting a little attention?

And if the curse is real… am I stepping into my own gothic romance, or am I set up to be taken to the underworld?

There’s only one way to find out.

Claimed by the Horseman is a short, supernatural romance novella with a monster love interest and a HEA. This Halloween romance is short, sweet and spicy.

I stumbled upon it by accident and picked it up out of pure curiosity, expecting a downright comical, poorly done retelling, but whoa, was I pleasantly surprised! Not only was the plot...

Clara and the Horseman...

Clara’s grandmother passed away and having just broke up with her boyfriend, she decided to return to her grandmother’s house. Apparently there was a curse put on her family many generations ago, linked to the house and land. This curse involves the headless horseman. This is a fantastic halloween story, mixed with romance, mystery and good friends. A perfect book to read as the trick-or-treaters ring your doorbell. “There had been a reason, I realized, for all the torment, for every night I...

Loved everything about this book

I love Halloween, Monsters and all things Sleepy Hollow so this short, spicy monster romance novella is right up my alley. This was a fantastically written retelling with a little twist. I was able to read this in one sitting and really enjoyed the characters - - Highly recommend for spooky season as it will make you happy that you picked it up. )

Not your average legend.

I was a little skeptical going into this book but soon found it enchanting. I liked the way the author retells the story of the Headless Horseman. The connection between Clara and Ansel was ethereal and alive. I really recommend this book to all romance readers.
