He’s watching me—the man on my neighbor’s roof. And I think I like it.

My body comes to life under his gaze. All I can think about is the way this man would feel against my skin.

Until our connection snaps and suddenly he’s gone.

In my sleepy neighborhood, everything is exactly how it should be as I settle in on this quiet Halloween.

Then, in the dead of night, he’s here in my home.

Tempting me with his touch, refusing to tell me his name.

Only one night—that’s all he offers. And that’s all I’m willing to give.

When I wake up the next morning, I’m not surprised he’s already gone.

But nothing about the night makes sense, and with no evidence of it ever happening, I’m left questioning everything.

Only One Night is a Halloween novelette. A quick and wild ride meant to get you hot and bothered, then leave you wondering what on earth you just read. Only One Night is a dark, women's fiction, short story that has no HEA. This is not a romance. The story was created for you, the reader, to be able to live out your Halloween fantasies through the pages of this book. The female main character remains nameless and description-less, with minimal details of her life mentioned, so you can envision her any way you choose.

What our community is saying

ABOUT US

Your favourite bookstores, favourite bookstore

Launching in June 2024, Swoon Bookstore started life as a retail indie bookstore with a focus on Queer titles and Australian authors. We created a steady community and began to dabble in bespoke pop up events and small-run special editions to compliment them. The pivotal moment in the next phase of the Swoon Story began with the inception of our first, fully featured Special Edition Book Box, Hamartia by Scarlett Drake, which was release April 2025.
