Peeps, I gotta tell you, I freakin’ LOVED writing this story for the upcoming Seasonal Shenanigans Halloween anthology.  I’ve seen the drafts for the cover and it is STUNNING. 

More details in the next week, but stay tuned. In the meantime, here’s a little nibble ... 

From “Specter” by Annika Steele

“Ask her out.”

“No.”

“She’s cute.”

“I know.”

“She’s smarter than you.”

“I know that too.”

“You like her.”

“Yes.”

“Ask her out, then.”

“No.”

“Fuck. Then lemme borrow your body, and I’ll ask her out.”

“You flirt with anything that moves, including the dog.” Brady slanted a dark look at his boyfriend. “Damn it, Rav, I’m not going to ask her out. Not with you like this.”

Mariángel Gutierrez is ready to act on the crush she has on her co-worker, Brady Reyes. When she works up the courage to ask the sexy Texan out on a date, she gets one heck of a surprise.

Brady’s got a crush of his own and is more than willing to go on a date, but he’s already got a boyfriend, Ravi Patel. Introducing Mariángel to Ravi is just a little bit complicated: Ravi’s a ghost with a body that's not quite dead.

Ravi's been encouraging Brady to ask Mariángel out for weeks. He knows his boyfriend is lonely and misses being able to touch. Mariángel is genuine, gorgeous, and definitely not a ghost. If Ravi were corporeal, he'd love to see if she'd be up for becoming a trio with him and Brady, possibly permanently. Besides, his dog likes her, and if that isn't a sign, Ravi doesn't know what is.

But magic and fate have other plans. Can Mariángel and Brady come together to find the solution to Ravi's problem? Can the three have their happily ever after together?
