A Halloween escape, a cinnamon-roll hockey player, and a fairy-tale romance that will make your heart race.
It was a dark and stormy night... that's how all the good stories begin, right?Full moon — check.
Spooky noises — check.
Romantic… eh, not so much?
Not when Carrie’s on vacation, skinny-dipping in a creek, and something has gone very, very wrong. Suddenly, her world narrows to three choices: a bear on one bank, whatever is in the water touching her leg, and a handsome stranger nearby who heard her shrieking like a banshee.
Except the stranger is holding her clothes in one hand and a hockey stick in the other, claiming he’s come to her rescue.
Sure, buddy…
She’s heard that line before — and just because he’s offering help doesn’t mean he’s one of the good guys. In fact, he’s bragging that he’s famous, shaking a hockey stick at her, wearing a mask and talking about ‘bunnies.’ But when something goes splash behind her, Fate makes the decision sooo much easier.
The weird hockey player wearing a mask in the woods wins — hands down.
One unexpected rescue.
One very suspicious offer.
One holiday neither of them will forget.
This Halloween, Carrie may not find a pumpkin carriage, fairy godmother, or sewing mice — but could this spooky little adventure end up being the fairy tale of her dreams?
