Blurb for “Idle Hands”:
A strict religious upbringing has Travis Boyd cautious about life and love, and scared of Halloween. On a whim, he accepts an invitation to meet mysterious Matthew Rowland at a haunted house in Downtown Kansas City.
The Devil’s Playground is more than a haunted house, it a place where the veil between the human and the supernatural world is open, and Matthew Rowland is definitely not human. His invitation to a night of horror and seduction is more than just a date–it’s a trap.
With Matthew as his guide, Travis experiences the ecstasy of panic and pleasure down an orgasmic path of no return.

I already have Halloween Heat !V, I think I’m going to have to pick up Halloween Heat I. My favorite Halloween costumes were ones I made for my girls. For my oldest I handmade a unicorn costume complete with glittery horn. This was before they had those plush unicorn costumes boy would my life had been easier if there was one. For my youngest, I made her a pile of leaves costume. I hand stitched a bunch of silk leaves to a sweatsuit and a hat.
Congrats on the release!

JoAnna, I love that you made your daughter her costume. The unicorn sounds gorgeous, but the pile of leaves is genius!

Both Halloween Heat I and IV sound like incredibly hot read!s! I liked your Amazon page and I friended you on Facebook!
My kids pick their own costumes out and it’s always soo much fun to see what they want dress as each Halloween! Last year, my oldest daughter was dressed as Dorothy – ruby red slippers and all! There were soo many people who commented on her costume! Another year, all three of my children dressed up as Superheroes! I love Halloween!

My favorite costume was a gypsy. Never before–and never since–have I worn so many necklaces at the same time! Scarves, bracelets, huge earrings, a little girl’s accessory dream come true! (I have on a few too many bracelets even now.) Thanks for the contest, and for bringing back fond Halloween memories!

My favorite costumes were when I dressed up as Cleopatra, a fairy, and a Renaissance era woman. Those are the ones I have the fondest memories of.

Thanks, Tara! Your blog hop page is awesome, so I borrowed some ideas from it. LOL
Julia, I love that your daughter went as Dorothy! She’s like the first kick-ass fictional character. LOL
Urb, I was always a gypsy growing up. For some reason, it was the cheapest costume to put together! (grew up poor, so it was either gypsy or hobo. LOL).
Sheri, Thanks for participating!

When I was in my teens I dressed up as a vagabond. I didn’t have any face paint so I burned the end of a cork and rubbed it on my face to make a beard. It was lots of fun!

My favorite costume is a witch. Not a pretty or sexy witch but one more like the witch in the Wizard of Oz..with the green skin, evil cackle and the long black nails.

My neice once went as a Zombie Princess. So cute
My last costume was a scarecrow. I liked it because it was very easy to get together after a bunch of teen girls that I worked with begged me to dress up the next day, lol.
