One Halloween party. One masked man. One temptation she never saw coming. Hallie expected Halloween night to be simple: a sexy nurse costume, a party on her boyfriend’s arm, and a little harmless fun. Instead, one forgotten watch exposes a betrayal she never saw coming—and sends her walking away from a relationship she suddenly realizes she should’ve questioned long ago. Then she meets the masked man outside. Tall. Mysterious. Dangerous-looking enough to make any woman think twice. Until he removes the mask. Dom isn’t a stranger. He’s the high-school crush Hallie never forgot—and apparently, the attraction was never one-sided. What begins as unfinished business quickly turns into an invitation Hallie knows she probably shouldn’t accept. Behind the doors of Dom’s private House of Horrors, curiosity becomes temptation, trust becomes surrender, and one unforgettable Halloween night pushes Hallie far beyond anything she expected. But underneath the masks, restraints, and wicked games is something she didn’t see coming at all: a man who understands the difference between taking control and being trusted with it. Hallie tells herself it’s only one night. Only Halloween. Only Dom. But some cravings don’t disappear with the sunrise. Make Me Scream is a spicy Halloween romance novella featuring betrayal, an old crush, consensual BDSM, high heat, humor, and one very memorable House of Horrors.
