A reporter’s disbelief in the supernatural is tested when she uncovers a tattoo artist’s sinister family secrets in an enthralling short story by New York Times bestselling author J.T. Geissinger.

Petra is skeptical when it comes to the French Quarter’s creepy urban legends. Until she meets Dax Rousseau, the proprietor of the House of Ink and Blood. The eldritch markings on his flesh tell more than the tale of a doomed bloodline. They come slitheringly alive. And the nearer Petra gets to the maddeningly sexy Dax, the closer she is to being the next victim of his ancient family curse.

J.T. Geissinger’s Spicy Little Curses is part of Scared Sexy, a deliciously dark collection of Halloween romance where things that go bump in the night might just steal your heart. These seductive stand-alone stories blend chills and heat in the perfect Halloween treat—each designed to be devoured in one sitting.

Part of the Scared Sexy collection, Spicy Little Curses follows Petra, a reporter who doesn’t believe in the supernatural, until she crosses paths with Dax Rousseau, a tattoo artist burdened by a cursed family legacy. Set against the backdrop of New Orleans, it blends spooky atmosphere with romance and heat.
For such a short book, 4 stars is very good for me. The pacing worked well, the chemistry between Petra and Dax was strong, and the mix of eerie legend with romance kept me engaged. I also listened to the audio, which was excellent, Troy Duran and Vanessa Moyen’s duet narration really captured the spark and intensity between the characters.
After a few misses in this series, this one finally delivered. A fun, sexy, and spooky read that I’d especially recommend in audio.

Finally, a Good One in the Series

4.5 🌟 rounded up!

Synopsis: Journalist Petra is investigating the urban legends of New Orleans and stumbles across a tattoo shop, run by Dax, a man covered in cursed and alive tattoos. And by getting too close, she finds herself the new target of the curse!

I feel this story really leaned into the creepy and spooky vibes. I loved the New Orleans setting, the hollow man and the catacombs! This is such a good story for spooky season!

And the dynamic between Petra and Dax was fantastic. Their love language is very much bullying, and I loved their banter! Even when they were hooking up they made me laugh!

The curse and the adventure to find a the witch was a fun plot. I wish it had been a longer book, but the author managed to cover a lot of ground in a short story. It was very insta-obsession / love as a result though.

And this was probably my favourite narrator duo so far! It was a duet audiobook which I always love and both narrators suited their characters so well!

All in all, very intrigued by the author and if she will do anything else in the magical world in the future!

My favourite of the series so far!!
