Mercy Hawthorne

Dark winds howl over the cornfields, but even three years after the pyres have burnt out, the cries of innocents still haunt the air. Tonight, the magic conjured by my blood will breathe life into a scarecrow carved of pumpkin and bone, binding a damned soul to return and avenge those burned by pious men, drunk on their own corruption.

Men who thrive in the chaos left in the wake of destruction.

But retribution is not all my dark passenger craves.

Summoned by my will, my reaper shall rise with eyes that burn like embers and an insatiable hunger for the hearts of sinners. He'll reap my enemies, one by one, devouring their darkness and on this most sacred of Hallows Eve, I shall have my vengeance.

And Silas Cohen shall have me.

Set just a few years before the Salem Witch Trials, Headless Haunt is a spicy novella around Samhain, and contains mature themes.

The narration

This was such an interesting listen. It’s definitely a mix of romance and wtf? The relationship between Silas and Mercy is very sweet. The New England town in this story almost has a Sleepy Hollow vibe to it. This is the first title from T.C Kraven I have listened to, and I will definitely be checking out the others. The creatures in this book, kind of remind me of something you’d see in Molly Harper’s works just on steroids.

Silas' voice is perfection! (The story is also excellent.)

This was advertised as a rom-com, and I was a bit dubious. Then the first joke made me laugh out loud, and at the mention of John Dee? SOLD. It's sweet and it's spicy with a few sad moments, but there’s some EXCELLENT vengeance. Plus, a fantastic heroine that you do *not* want to mess with. Loved it! I’ll definitely be listening to it again and again.
