 Welcome to the Beachwalk Press Halloween Blog Hop!
I’m sharing a recipe that is usually served at Christmas, but I have used it for Halloween and other parties. Depending on what holiday you are serving the cheeseball with, you can use a small pumpkin, the top and bottom of the red pepper, the top and bottom of a gourd, etc. You can decorate the cheeseball with anything you’d like and tailor it for any holiday. Cheeseball pumpkin head 2 bricks cream cheese Bunch of green onions 1 red pepper 1 small pumpkin 1 package of cheddar sharpe cheese Let the cream cheese set and get to room temperature for easy mixing. Chop the green onions and red paper Blend together 2 bricks of cream cheese. Mix the green onions and red pepper in, Add half the cheddar sharpe cheese Roll the mixture into a ball Layout wax paper and place the rest of the cheddar sharpe cheese on it. Roll the mixture on top of the cheddar cheese Roll the mixture around in the cheese until all the cheese sticks to it. Cut the top and the bottom off the small pumpkin. Set the cheeseball in the bottom from the small pumpkin Take a knife and run it up so that the cheeseball looks like a pumpkin Place the top of the small pumpkin on top of the cheeseball. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Serve with ritz crackers or chips.

 Hello Connie, thank you for having me on your blog to share my latest release, Caster’s Unfriendly Ghost.
Halloween is one of my favorite times of year, so when I was invited to participate in a Wild Rose Press Halloween Anthology, I was like, heck yeah! The stories had to be under 15,000 words, so I was limited on how much mayhem I could cause. I decided to write a sweet (sort of) romance with a little spookiness sprinkled in. I realized I'd never written a ghost story (Witches, Reapers and Vampires, yes. Ghosts, no). So, I made a stab (no pun intended) at writing one. It was lots and lots of fun. Hope you enjoy!

But the man who broke her heart five years ago is back. And he’s anything but the marrying kind. Confirmed bachelor Reese Caster is perfectly content with his life—and he’s finally over Emily, the one woman who almost made him commit. Now, his world is rocked when her dead husband shows up, demanding that Reese pursue Emily to keep her out of the clutches of her latest suitor—a jerk who is only after her money. Being around Emily again has made Reese reconsider his bachelor life style. But now that the threat of the other man is gone, the pesky ghost wants Reese to break things off. Can he and Emily find the love they were denied, or will the ghost of her dead husband destroy their chances? EXCERPT With Caster, there was no way in hell he’d ever commit to a woman. That’s why, as difficult as he was to resist, she’d made certain to keep their outings casual. Just a few dinners. She’d made a point to make comments like, “It’s great to spend time with an old friend of Joey’s” and “Being around you somehow makes me feel closer to Joey”—keeping the specter of her deceased husband between them. She had to put up some kind of barrier between her and his irresistibility. Being swept up into Caster’s sexual charms made a woman forget every other man she’d ever known. She shook off thoughts of her love life and focused on the event at hand—opening night of the haunted forest. Tickets for the first few nights of the event had sold extremely well. Word of mouth would likely determine how the remaining nights went. “Emily!” Pennywise the psycho clown—aka Bob Ferrell—rushed up to her. “Have you seen Megan? She’s not here and now, Destiny is saying she’ll be Michael’s victim instead of mine. I need a victim, asap.” Emily rolled her eyes. No doubt the curvy, young blonde would love to trade out horror monsters—Michael aka Caster had it all over Pennywise aka Bob. “Destiny will be your victim, just like we rehearsed, if she wants to be a part of this at all.” Destiny was a switchboard operator at the hospital who was bucking for a promotion, so she’d likely do whatever the administrative assistant asked of her. “I’ll call Megan, and if she doesn’t show—” “Then maybe you can be my victim?” Emily turned at the sound of Caster’s voice. He wore the Michael Myers jumpsuit, but was holding the creepy mask beneath his arm, making it look even creepier. “Uh, yeah…well, I’m sure Megan will show.” Granted, it was do-able. She wasn’t needed to actually run the haunted forest. A few of the nurses from the hospital were manning the ticket desk. Everything was in place, and everyone had their roles. She was just there for problems that might arise. But, being held in the dark so close to Caster…she shuddered. More dangerous than encountering the Michael Myers.
