The Horseman is unending,
his presence shan’t lessen.
If you break the curse,
you become the legend.
Washington Irving and Rip Van Winkle had no choice but to cover up the deadly truth behind Ichabod Crane’s disappearance. Centuries later, a Crane returns to Sleepy Hollow awakening macabre secrets once believed to be buried deep.
What if the monster that spawned the legend lived within you?
Now, Ireland Crane, reeling from a break-up and seeking a fresh start, must rely on the newly awakened Rip Van Winkle to discover the key to channeling the darkness swirling within her. Bodies are piling high and Ireland is the only one that can save Sleepy Hollow by embracing her own damning curse.
But is anyone truly safe when the Horseman rides?

Review : Bounces like a Crazy Girl cause I'm so FanGirling Over this.....
Crane is an Awesome beginning to the Legends Saga! I love the whole Headless horseman, Sleepy Hollow legend and Stacey brought it all to life. Following Ichabod and Ireland as the story unfolds you have both a past look into things and a present day adventure and mystery to follow. Stacey has hit it out of the park with Crane.
Along with Ichabod, I absolutely adored Rip and Irv. The 3 of these guys are the funniest, coolest and most loyal people in the Hollow. I love how they are all interwoven into the story flawlessly. There is great banter along with sweet kick butt action and scares. There are all the usual characters and Stacey has put her amazing writing talent in and made them her own while keeping with the legend. simply put I LOVED this...
The old flows so well with the present day, all the while having it's own unique spin. I loved following Ireland and man at the amazing townspeople. Each one has been well visualized and you will gladly be cheering them on or wishing they were next! Everything about what unfolds left me in awe at Stacey and her SupaAmazing Word Slinging!!
I am chomping at the bit for the next installment of The Legends Saga.... RAVEN
Now a something special with one of my Fave back and forths....
