Stingy Jack’s Last Trick — A Halloween Tale

There are currently no reviews.
Genres: Horror, Romance,
Sub-genres: Paranormal Romance, Gothic

For a hundred and fifty years, Jack has walked a Connecticut county that has forgotten him, a farm boy who bartered his soul at a crossroads and paid for it twice over. Refused by Heaven, unclaimed by Hell, he has nothing to light his way but a stolen coal, and nothing to fill his nights but windows he can watch and never touch.

Then he finds Julian's.

Nineteen, chronically ill, and certain no one would notice if he stopped waking, Julian is exactly the kind of loneliness Jack was never allowed to love. As October tightens toward Halloween, the veil between them begins to thin, and an old bargain comes due.
