From amnesiac vampire slayers to fallen angels, space vampires to cursed tattoo artists, sleep paralysis demons to ancient wish-granting entities—six stories prove that even monsters deserve a happily ever after. Treat yourself to a collection that's equal parts spooky and steamy.

Hot for Slayer by Ali Hazelwood

When vampire Aethelthryth—"Ethel"—finds her nemesis, vampire slayer Lazlo Enyedi, with no memory of who or what they are, an ancient hunt becomes an unexpected chance at forbidden passion. He's crashing on her couch, solving her sudoku puzzles and looking at her like she's his eternal flame (minus the whole bursting-into-ashes part). As his memories return, Ethel realizes she might be in danger of losing more than just her head.

Falling by Christina Lauren

Cat should be afraid of Brigan—the gorgeous stranger at a Halloween party whose presence makes everyone else fall at his feet. But while his supernatural allure drives others to obsession, Cat somehow keeps her wits…even as she surrenders to temptation. When this cursed being realizes she alone can see his true nature, one night of passion could break a centuries-old spell—or doom them both.

Spicy Little Curses by J.T. Geissinger

Petra is skeptical when it comes to the French Quarter's urban legends. Until she meets Dax Rousseau, the proprietor of the House of Ink and Blood. The markings on his flesh tell more than the tale of a doomed bloodline. They come alive. And the nearer Petra gets to the deeply sexy Dax, the closer she is to being the next victim of his ancient family curse.

Space Vampire by Ruby Dixon

Dana, the human pet of an alien scientist, and Vlad, a genetically engineered vampire with a taste for more than just blood, find themselves suddenly alone on a deserted space station. As they plot their escape, they'll have to navigate cramped quarters, steamy encounters and the growing realization that they might be each other's perfect match. But with their captors in hot pursuit, will their budding romance survive the emptiness of space?

Beautiful Nightmare by Katee Robert

When sleep paralysis demon Gemma's first solo haunting goes hilariously wrong, she finds herself captivated by her intended victim. Caleb, a romantic who believes in all things supernatural, finds her adorably pink skinned horned form more alluring than alarming. As their steamy night unfolds and unexpected feelings bloom, Gemma must choose between her demonic duties and the human who makes her feel anything but monstrous.

My Boyfriends Are All Monsters by Kimberly Lemming

Lucy Sawyer's wish for true love lands her in an enchanted town where the men are supernatural, the chemistry is off the charts and everyone wants to date her. But they say that things that seem too good to be true usually are, and soon Lucy may need to decide if she's willing to pay the cost of her happily ever after.

Great for the season

I would love more of this for other holidays! The stories are short but fun. I liked some more than others but all fit the Halloween vibe!

Monsters and loving galore!

The varying characters and worlds that each author explored! Just want more!
Can’t wait for the next short stories book!

Spooky season officially started!

I’ve already read books from 3 out of the six authors! Ruby Dixon is my all time favorite sci-fi author, so I knew Space Vampire would deliver! Ali Hazelwood’s Bride is a favorite of mine, so I knew I’d enjoy Hot for Slayer! I like Kimberly Lemmings sci-fi rom-com style of writing however My Boyfriends are all Monsters was probably my least favorite. Katee Robert’s Beautiful Nightmare was hilariously cute. I enjoyed the characters and the story was sweet and cute. Christina Lauren’s Falling: I enjoyed, I wanted more! J.T. Geissinger’s Spicy Little Curses was amazing and I’m definitely planning on reading some more of her books!

Fun stories, great narration

These are great little bite-size stories, overall the characters and motivations are clear and compelling.

Space Vampire

Very interesting and different. I liked the Bond and the ending.

All my boyfriends are monsters
⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
🌶️🌶️🌶️
My least favorite in the series, they’re just really wasn’t any reason for them to be together.
Kind of creepy, still worried about her future prospects. No resolution to what happened to the ex-boyfriend that left her.

Spicy little curses
⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
🌶️🌶️
Cute, they were compelled to be together for some reason, but they really don’t have a reason to be attracted to each other. Interesting story.

I love each of these authors and these were perfect,

Each story is different and fun with a sprinkle of spice. Each story is unique and complete though short.

A Fun Series- Some better than others

Hot for Slayer-4.5⭐️
This one is the longest of the group and you can tell she had more time to really flesh out the story. I had time to feel invested with the characters and I loved the whole multi-century Vampire and Slayer back and forth and how neither never really wanted to kill the other....I mean they act like they do, but their forbidden attraction always seems to stop them. I really liked this one and the audio narrators were great, excellent accents!

Falling-4⭐️
This one was fine...I think it needed more time, everything just happened so quickly and honestly ended so abruptly I was like wait what just happened and how did we get here. There were elements liked, but it was just really really rushed.

Spicy Little Curses-4⭐️
The second longest of the bunch, this one packed in some great details and I loved the New Orleans setting and lore that was woven in. I personally wanted a bit more chemistry and spice between these two because the potential was there, but all in all I liked the story!

Space Vampire-4⭐️
Another fun and spicy one that was honestly just a good time. I like science fiction, but don't much of it at all and definitely not in the romance space, so I like that it was outside the box with the alien/clone/vampire and a human "pet" (prisoner) who get left behind on a space station. Cue the forced proximity and chemistry and you know only one escape pod.

Beautiful Nightmare-3⭐️
This one was just ok. Again, it all just happened way too quickly and I get that these are paranormal and off the wall, but this one felt extra unbelievable with the insta-lust/attraction to the creature that is there to feed off your nightmares. It kind of felt like a play on Monster's Inc but for adults, with spice and she's a demon

My Boyfriends are All Monsters-4⭐️
This one was a fun listen - I mean who wouldn't want to end up in a town that is your monster smutty dreams come true...literally every man or monster or creature is there for just for her and man do they deliver! I mean it’s totally off the wall, but this was just a great time and I liked the narrators too!

Amazing concept! Six novellas from many of my favorite authors.

I really enjoyed all the stories and all the narrators. I love that Ruby Dixon had her novella set in the Risdaverse, and I love that Kimberly lemming is constantly entertaining us with her hilarious monster romances!

Nice entry for spooky season

Most are duet narration which is great and I would say some stories are better than others -Falling being my least fave but they were all pretty enjoyable. Good selection of authors. Cute romantic start to spooky season !

Do it!

These were an awesome set of short novellas for anyone that loves paranormal romance. Each story was great and I could not possibly pick a favorite! I knew they would be great when I saw the author line up. I hope we get more series like this in the future

Perfectly awesome

Amazing way to start the Halloween season, each author brings a touch of their own unique twist to each story, and they are amazing!
