One unforgettable night. One extreme haunt. One chance to push my limits. Armed with a safeword and a waiver, I head into the most viral extreme haunt in the city, ready to embrace the thrill with three friends by my side. As a horror fanatic, I’m confident I can handle whatever twisted scenarios await us. But when the line between fantasy and reality blurs, I quickly realize I’ve made a terrible mistake. What begins as a thrilling challenge soon spirals into a nightmare. The safeword doesn’t work, and I find myself trapped in a dirty warehouse, pursued by two masked men who see my fear as part of their twisted game. They won’t let me go. And as the terror intensifies, I can’t help asking myself…do I really want to escape? Please read the content warnings at the beginning of the book. This book is dark, with content that could bother some readers. HAUNT is a short, spicy Halloween novella. It’s MMF, and doesn’t end with a cliffhanger. It is extremely dark.

AJ Merlin would rather write epic love stories than live them. I mean, who wants to limit themselves to only falling in love once? She is obsessed with dark fantasy, true crime, and also dogs. From serial killers to voyeurs all the way down to the devil himself, AJ's specialty is in writing irredeemable heroes who somehow still manage to captivate their heroines (and her readers).
