Overall thoughts
Well that puts a new spin on pumpkin spice. This book was a little cringe. But I still kind of liked it. The ending kind of sent me lol.

Tropes and Kinks
Monster fucking, vines(tentacles), all the holes being filled, pregnancy-ish, breeding

Spice
It's spicy! If you want a quick Halloween smut book this will do.

Characters
Charliegh is a goth girl whose down for some monster dick
Jack is a green pumpkin monster who doesn't speak. But he is still kind of adorable.

Plot
There's not a whole lot of plot here. The story is based off the lore of how the Jack-o-lantern came to be.

TW
Murder, also weird pumpkin babies at the end.

Thank you Netgalley for the ARC. I received an ARC of this book for an honest review.

This book was freaking wild! It has everything in a monster smut book you could ever want--monsters and mayhem, spiciness, murder, and even some sweet moments. Perfect for all spooky readers and just in time for Halloween!

What in the actual monster c@ck did I just read? I knew going in that this was going to be a bit far-fetched and I thought I had prepared myself. What I didn't prepare myself for was what happened to Cooper and the pumpkin patch. What? What! What happened to Cooper was wild, but I can get behind it. The pumpkin patch completely through me. I didn't even understand how it was even remotely possible. I read paranormal a LOT and you can normally convince me of most things if it's written well enough, and this was just not it.

Overall, it was a good time, but you lost me as soon as we started talking about procreating.

A quick and spicy monster read that is perfect for the upcoming Halloween! The writing was great and pretty funny actually. I really think that reader of this genre will love this book and I think Faedra Rose did a great job of this book

So this was a quick monster erotic read perfect for those slightly spooky Halloween vibes. I thought it was written well and found it pretty humorous!

Not for me unfortunately, in the monster erotica/romance genre I think there are authors who get the balance and tone right and this wasn’t it.

Oh, I know the monster lovers are going to enjoy this one! I'm new to the monster lovin' realm but the minute I saw this book and read the description, I knew I had to read it. Charleigh is an absolutely unhinged MC and I love her for it! There's some suspension of disbelief needed to fully enjoy this but that's the fun of stories like these.

Thank you to Netgalley and Evernight Publishing for allowing me to read this early.

The perfect spicy Halloween story for spooky season!

Such a quick and easy read! I was hooked from the very beginning. I almost wish it wasn’t so short!

When a meeting with her ex on All Hallow’s Eve turns bad Charleigh is left to wander the woods home.... and finds herself face to face with a pumpkin headed monster. Something about the hell fire in its eyes and the fact that it protected her and helped her makes her want to act on her darker impulses... and this will be a Halloween she’ll never forget.
