Howling on the Bluff
(2026)(The first book in the Monsters of Moonfall Isle series)
A novel by Veronica Samek
Amazon Bestselling Author Veronica Samek invites you to Moonfall Isle, where Halloweentown whimsy meets Dream Harbor heat in a cozy and spicy monster romance.
Ivy didn’t know she had an aunt. She certainly didn’t know she’d inherited a cottage and general store on an island that doesn’t appear on any map. The only way to find it is by following bizarre instructions from her late aunt’s attorney at Claw & Law.
Recently divorced and desperate for a fresh start, Ivy has nothing left to lose. The inheritance feels like her last lifeline.
Until she arrives.
The island doesn’t have reliable electricity. Cars don’t work. Cell service is useless. The residents stare too long. Something in the woods is watching her.
When a monster attacks, Ivy is saved by the very man she thought was stalking her. Conall is a brooding faehound who can shift into something more wolf and vine than man. He claims he is honorbound to protect her.
She doesn’t want his protection.
He doesn’t want the responsibility.
They resent each other on sight. She resents being trapped under his constant watch. He resents being bound to a woman whose presence is unraveling everything.
But the truth is worse than either of them expect.
The island is a sanctuary for nonviolent monsters. Ivy’s aunt was a witch, and before she died, she cast a spell that went terribly wrong.
Now Ivy’s blood is the key to breaking or finishing the spell. Monsters beyond the island don’t want to be locked out again, and they’ll do anything to keep her blood from fixing what has been broken.
Forced into close quarters, Ivy and Conall must learn to work together before the island’s fragile protections fail.
Because if they can’t fix the spell in time, the next monster that finds Ivy will not be one sworn to protect her.
Genre: Paranormal Romance
