Katarina Being the beautiful and accomplished daughter of a wealthy man should mean that my life is one of ease-but the two suitors I have pursuing me make me very uneasy indeed. Cornelius Crane is a terrible know-it-all, and while I don't mind a learned man seeking my hand, I have a feeling he's only seeking my father's money and our well-stuffed larder. Barnabus Bones definitely wishes to court me for something other than money... His covetous eyes rake across me every time we meet-and they never land on my face for long.

Katarina Being the beautiful and accomplished daughter of a wealthy man should mean that my life is one of ease-but the two suitors I have pursuing me make me very uneasy indeed. Cornelius Crane is a terrible know-it-all, and while I don't mind a learned man seeking my hand, I have a feeling he's only seeking my father's money and our well-stuffed larder. Barnabus Bones definitely wishes to court me for something other than money... His covetous eyes rake across me every time we meet-and they never land on my face for long. Mama told me that Father would find me a husband who is kind and loving, but I want my suitors to love me, not my father's money or my looks that will fade with age and children. When Crane and Bones begin to quarrel over me during Father's autumn party, I get caught in the middle. As things turn ugly, I flee into the dark woods of Sleepy Hollow, forgetting that legend says these woods are haunted by a Headless Horseman. Irving Life in Sleepy Hollow is quite lonely, but I suppose that's to be expected when all of my neighbors are terrified at the sight of me. I try to keep to myself and stay in my little cottage with my animals for company. I only go for rides in the dark of night so I won't disturb anyone. Imagine my shock when someone comes running through the woods, screaming in terror, and it isn't because of me! The moment I see Katarina Van Tassel being chased by some big, swaggering bully with evil in his eyes, I forget that I'm supposed to stay out of sight. I hop on my horse and save the girl, taking her home with me to wait out a storm and escape the brute pursuing her. To my surprise, the golden-haired beauty sees through my monstrous form to my kind heart. Could it be that she's my long-awaited bride? I'll have to use every wit I possess to seduce the beauty of Sleepy Hollow. Can I win her heart before her father and her two unworthy suitors force her hand? Seduced in Sleepy Hollow is a spicy historical monster romance with a steamy happy ending! Monsters have always existed. They walk amongst us or live in the shadows. Hungering. Craving. Looking for love. Are you ready to meet these swoon-worthy specters and creatures of the night? It's time for monsters...
