My Vacation With The Horned Hippies

A reclusive tech guy. A free-loving monster commune. And a birthday trip that transformed my life.

At 23, I've done everything right. I got a stable job, a house, and savings. So why do I feel so empty?

My only friend, Spencer, thinks he has the answer. He left it all behind to join a forest commune of Minotaurs and Hucows-and now he wants me to spend my birthday there.

What he didn't mention is Maya, the warm, affectionate... and seven months pregnant village massage and tea master.
I've never even hugged a woman. Now I'm living with a free-spirited monster girl who believes in connection, touch, and healing in ways I've never imagined.

Between the sunshine, affection, and the commune's unconventional lifestyle, I might finally start to come out of my shell.
But as I'll find out, even in a free-loving commune, drama from the outside world can still find its way in. And once a Hucow gets her tail around you, it's a bond that goes right to the soul.
