The Hike: Spear Me, Baby
By Valdean Pouncie

Love. Lust. Legend. Something in the woods wants all three.

When opposites-attract couple Nick and Robin set out for a weekend hike in the Great Smoky Mountains, they're hoping to reignite their passion and patch their unraveling relationship. But the forest has other plans.

Robin, a Cherokee rock singer with a wild streak and a past steeped in tribal folklore, knows these woods. Nick, a brass-knuckled welder with a dirty mind and a deep mistrust of nature, only knows how badly he wants to watch her walk in those shorts. What starts as a romantic getaway quickly descends into a surreal, sexually charged nightmare-where their bodies are no longer fully their own, and every rustling leaf hides a secret.

An ancient evil stalks them. A shape-shifting demon with obsidian fingers and a hunger for more than flesh. As erotic dreams bleed into waking terror, and Polaroid photographs start to appear of things no one should have seen-Nick and Robin must confront the truth:

They're not just being watched.
They're being studied.
And the forest never forgets.

Raw. Hypnotic. Savage.

The Hike: Spear Me, Baby is a blood-soaked, sex-drenched descent into Appalachian folklore, where the line between arousal and fear snaps like a twig underfoot.

Perfect for fans of:
- Erotic horror with folklore roots (think The Ritual meets The Witcher-but way hornier)
- Supernatural seduction and paranormal dread
- Intense psychosexual suspense in wild places
- Cult horror, voyeurism, and things that go bump in the dark
