October Shelf Love After Dark Book Club

For our October dark romance book club, we'll be reading Don't Be Scared by AJ Merlin. Cadence will lead this book club together in a discussion of the book.

Every town has a history.
Ours is just a little darker than most.
For years I’ve celebrated Halloween and Hollow Bridge’s history with everyone else who lives here. Parades, festivals, and insane Halloween parties have always been a staple for us. Some bad behavior is expected, given what we’re celebrating.
But M**der has never been on the table before.
Someone in Hollow Bridge wants to bring the stories to life, and they’re not firing any warning shots. When rumors of someone wearing a Halloween mask surface, it isn’t long before the first person is killed.
No one is safe, but when I end up with a serial killer kneeling over me and a knife at my throat, I expect to be the next victim of the Hollow Bridge killer. I don’t expect for him to speak to me, from behind the garish mask he wears.
“Who should be the next to die, Bailey?”
Inexplicably, he lets me go. But I’m never going to be safe from him.
Because he wants more from me than just a name.
Don’t Be Scared is a full-length, MMF standalone for anyone looking for a spicy and dark Halloween read. It contains graphic violence, darker kinks, and M**der. For a full list of triggers, please use the look inside feature.
