Mystery and intrigue surround Halloween night as friends surrender to long-hidden desires, lovers relinquish control, and the heat of passion threatens to consume them all...

Danielle has a plan—use the company Halloween party to seduce the sexy mail guy who works a few floors up who she’s been meeting for coffee for the past few months. The only problem? He’s not who she thinks he is, and he has seduction plans of his own.

Kindergarten teachers aren’t known for breaking the rules, but Steph is ready to go undercover—and get under the covers—to work her magic on her best friend, Landon. Sexy costume necessary, multiple orgasms crucial, real identity optional.

When Stacy discovers her sex-on-a-stick ex at her Hollywood Halloween blow-out, she decides to show the cocky homicide detective exactly what he's been missing. But she’s not the only one plotting revenge, and Ian’s the only one who can save her.

Lieutenant Derek Tyler and Ginger Peet have overcome every seemingly impossible hurdle on the path to happiness, but when they each receive life-changing news on the same day, will their hard-won trust stand up to the test? Or will their attempts to shield one another drive them apart?

Enjoy your tricks and treats in this sexy anthology featuring bestselling authors Katee Robert, Cari Quinn, Samanthe Beck, and Tessa Bailey

There is Halloween fun, secrets, lies, and a whole lot of steam  in each of these novellas. Each story takes you into a relationship that has something to hide whether it be a true identity, feelings, danger or a life event. And other things they all share are the sexy scenes and seriously hot men. From the Rich CEO, and the caring best friend, and  the domineering detectives.

There's a little bit of nice and a bunch of naughty in each one. But it is a delightful Halloween themed anthology. It is unusual to see anthologies about Halloween so I found that intriguing. And these are written by some of Brazen's most popular authors and therefore include some familiar characters. I was most excited for Tessa Bailey's part, but I enjoyed these different stories.

Seducing Mr. Right (A Come Undone Novella): Katee Robert
4 stars
Danielle is wanting to advance her physical relationship with her friend Grayson to the next level, so a Halloween party is the perfect opportunity to operate out of her comfort zone. But she has issues with controlling men and trust issues. And Grayson has not been completely honest with her about one big detail in his life. When the truth comes out will it make or break them?

Tempted by His Best Friend:  Cari Quinn
3.5 stars
This is another friends to lover story with three best friends and two of them having issues admitting feelings for each other. A masquerade ball gives Steff the chance to act out some of her fantasies with her best friend while in costume. There were lies, omissions, some soul searching (and some ass kicking by their other friend) for these friends to decide if they were going to try to make it work. 


4 stars
The couples in this were introduced in  Lover Undercover, but even though I have not read it,  I was still able to follow along well. This novella focuses on Ian and Stacy who were dating, but have now hit a rough patch. Ian is trying to wait her out and get her to commit. But she got cold feet and has issues with her past. But she is now in danger and a Halloween party makes her an easy target. Her twin sister Kylie and her fiance and Ian's detective partner Trevor are involved to help keep her safe. This had danger, steam, and romance. It kept me up a bit late finishing it up since I had to see how it all ended up. 

Protecting What's Theirs ( Line of Duty Novella):Tessa Bailey
4.5 stars
Derek and Ginger were introduced in Protecting What's His, and I was so excited to get more of their story. I love this couple and Tessa Bailey's writing style. Her reads are fast paced, with likable, flawed characters,  and are seriously steamy. Her alphas are such domineering dirty talkers too! We got to see Derek and Ginger struggle a bit and deal with some changes. They just have to keep trying to figure out how to work together as a couple and be honest. I enjoyed spending more time with them  and I was not disappointed. And it will bridge the gap til her sister Willa's upcoming book. 

Even though I had not read the other authors except Tessa Bailey, I found they were all easily read as stand alones and the authors gave enough background info on the characters that they were not confusing.  I enjoyed each of these novellas and have found some authors and series to check out. 

Thanks to Entangled Publishing/Brazen  for providing me an arc in exchange for an honest review.
