Halloween Hearts is an anthology of true love & spooky romance; twelve tales of cursed love, monstrous meet-cutes, dark and stormy witchcraft, and happily ever hauntings. You can get your copy just in time for Halloween (and get your name included as a supporter) by backing the project on Kickstarter.
If there’s anything more appropriately spooky than a story set on All Hallows Eve, in a remote cabin deep in the woods, and with a violent storm threatening on the horizon, I’m not sure what it would be. In this case, we find the resident of said cabin, Livie, a woman waiting for a visitor to show up. She and Kass have been friends for a very long time, but it’s been a hard friendship because Kass is …
Well.
Kass is Kass. Just as Livie is Livie.
I give you a whole lot more, then I’m going to mess around with your experience of the story itself, and that just wouldn’t do. “Flickering Candles” is a story with depth and twists. It really should be experienced for exactly what it is.
As with a lot of Alexandra Brandt’s work, Brigid and I loved it from the moment we read it. As her bio reads, Alex writes with truth and a gentleness that is hard to ignore. “Flickering Candles” proves that on every page.
