Recluse Braeden Van Brunt is not happy to be the Headless Horseman…until he meets Katrina Van Tassel, owner of the Sleepy Hollow Inn, whose allure bewitches him from the front desk into the bedroom. When he discovers Kat and the village of Sleepy Hollow are cursed to exist only in the present day for one weekend a year, he realizes the sacrifice he must make if he wants to keep her.Katrina Van … her.
Katrina Van Tassel lives between slivers of time. She thought she was through grieving her betrothed’s death, but her dreams flare to life when his mirror-image arrives requesting a room. Drawn to Braeden, she is taken to more erotic heights of intimacy than she ever imagined, but she can’t be sure if her heart is with him or with the love from her past.
Knowing he must conquer both time and ghosts to keep the only woman he’s ever loved, Braeden must put the past to rest. But the dead won’t rest in Sleepy Hollow.
Author Note: Passion of Sleepy Hollow was previously published by Ellora’s Cave in 2014.

I loved the book easy to read and very entertaining.
I could not put this book down. I loved the characters and the hero, Braeden, was smoking hot! Great retelling of this timeless classic.
A different twist on a well loved story. The author takes a classic tale and creates an amazing steamy romance with some magical twists. A great story with sexy and steamy scenes with an entertaining plot that is well written. Did I mention the sexy, steamy scenes?!?!
A great take on a classic tale of the Headless Horseman.
Braeden Van Brunt had the job of playing the Headless Horseman for a reenactment in a historical village. Strange things happen here and once he leaves, the villages appears to have vanished.
Katrina the Inn keeper is a woman he cannot stop thinking about. Some time later when it’s time to play his role again the village reappears and time seems to have stood still…or rather back in the 1700s.
He and Kat must defeat the curse, a ghost and superstitious villagers in order to bring the village of Sleepy Hollow into the future.
The story was fun, adventurous and there was plenty of steam between the main characters. The villagers were interesting…love them or hate them.
A great paranormal tale and well worth the read.
It was from the past until someone realised they were conned and came to the future!

I love time travel books & historical books. This combined them in a fun way even though it lacked detail & was highly predictable. Would really like a better sequel as I would like to see how the characters adjued to there new situation.
I liked the story very much. It takes place near where I grew up, and we heard the story of Sleepy Hollow and Icabod Crane from an early age. I thought it was a well written twist on the story.
Fun read but a little too steamy.
loved the twist on the story of Sleepy Hollow. I give it 5 smiles 🙂
Love!!! Very unique, I’ve never read anything like it. Great character building. Highly recommend
Interesting twist of a classic tale. Strong-willed characters. Liked the secondary characters, too. Wished hero hadn’t bemoaned his unusual size. Really shouldn’t have with all the bodybuilders we see. Katrina vacillated between a prim virgin and a sex kitten. A bit much with the sex scenes. Page after page. If you like steamy sex this is for you. Worth reading to find out the “why” of the story.
can’t laynit down,had to know the end quickly
“The Headless Horseman rides tonight
through stark and starless skies.
Shattering the silence
with his otherworldly cries.
He races through the darkness
on his alabaster steed.
The Headless Horseman rides tonight
wherever the fates would lead.”
By Jack Prelutsky
Take my hand dear reader as we step back in time…to the village of Sleepy Hollow. A village that as fate would have it, is on a different time line than the rest of our world. Forever cursed to be living one week in the 1700’s while a year passes in the present. Except for the small window of time when the Headless Horseman rides, and Oldtime and Newtime intersects from Midnight Thursday to Midnight Sunday.
Lexi Post has taken a classic tale and twisted it into a story that will have you racing through the pages looking for clues to unlocking the secrets of the curse. Braeden Van Brunt and Katrina Van Tassel’s story is so hawt, your heart will be galloping as if the very Horseman is chasing you. Will their love be strong enough to break the curse keeping Sleepy Hollow locked in the past? Or will those wishing to seek revenge keep them forever trapped in Oldtime?
The Legend of the Headless Horseman has always been one of my favs, and I LOVED this take on the classic! The Passion of Sleepy Hollow is a story I highly recommend!!
