I came to photograph a legend...and wind up stuck in Montana's most infamous haunted attraction.

Wolfe Marsden doesn't do cameras. Or interviews. Or strangers. Especially not strangers with a lens aimed at his masked face.

He's a towering hunk of gruff, muscled mystery, with the kind of scars you only earn from fighting for your country.

And I'm drawn to him in ways I don't understand.

I was supposed to keep it professional...snapping a few shots, and landing the magazine cover story.

But the longer I'm trapped in this Gothic mansion under Wolfe's steely gaze, the more I want to peel away his armor—and not just the mask.

One hot night. One raging storm. And one man who's going to make sure I know exactly what happens when you tempt the Beast of Marsden Manor.

Spooked is a short, steamy, instalove romance set in the small town of Deepwood Mountain, Montana. It features a scarred veteran and a spirited photographer and some serious Beauty and the Beast and Phantom of the Opera vibes. Happy Halloween! 🎃
