How to Hide a Body for Halloween
(2026)(The second book in the How to NOT Get Away with Murder series)
A Story by Mea Monique
I''m having the worst year of my life.
Mostly because I keep on dying.
After accidentally (not entirely accidentally) rage-baiting a witch at last year’s halloween fest, I was hexed with a uniquely cruel curse to find the love of my life and achieve a soul-binding climax before the next Halloween or die permanently. Unfortunately, the curse is aggressively committed to quality control. Every time I get intimate with someone who is not my soulmate, I die.
The good news? I come back to life. Sometimes for minutes. Sometimes for hours. But I wake up naked, confused, and insanely hungry.
The bad news? Dying hurts, resurrection is deeply inconvenient, and I’m running out of time.
When my latest death lands me in the county morgue, I wake up on an autopsy table and accidentally headbutt the very handsome medical examiner moments before he cuts into me.
Once he reluctantly agrees to help find a way to free me of this curse, our search leads us through enchanted pumpkin patches, magical dive bars, chaotic coven meetings, and one deeply unfortunate séance involving a goat.
Somewhere along the way, I start falling for him.
Which is rude, honestly, because I’m very busy trying not to die before Halloween.
Genre: Paranormal Romance
