S.M. McCoy's Blog: Heaven's Fiction

Julian by Anna Katmore
A book to feel for. "Julian" is everything I read books for. To feel something and be transported into a suspension of my imagination. I couldn't put this book down.

This book made me cry multiple times, because I'm a sap, and because I felt for this character. There's something so heart wrenching about that feeling you get when you want to be loved, but you push it away because you don't know how to process it when it comes. Yes, some people might be annoyed with how the...

I finished this book a few weeks ago, am just now getting to this review. I apologize for the delay, I guess you could say 2018 kicked me in the butt, and I strive to do better in 2019.

DECEMBER UPCOMING BOOK REVIEWS
Holidays are always a busy time, and as such my reading for reviews has suffered.

I have read Bertrice Small's Friarsgate Inheritance series this month, which doesn't fall in line with the genre of this review blog, so no new posting has been made, but if you like historical romances Bertrice Small is definitely one of my favorites.

I have also listened to the audiobook Insidious: An Urban Fantasy Romance (The Marked Mage Chronicles, Book 1)[image error], which was supe...

Serial reading struck me again folks, I'm usually only monogamous with Paranormal Romances, and then have a few fantasy books on the sidelines that I read a chapter or two at a time and then binge a good romance, then read a few more chapters of my other books.

This post is here for the readers who...

BOOK REVIEW: YA VAMPIRE PARANORMAL ROMANCE

(Inception: A Dark Paranormal Romance (The Marked Saga Book 1)[image error])
If you like romance, and twists, and dark heroes, then this book is for you. I read the WHOLE series, books one through four, in less than two weeks. Given I was on vacation, I probably would have read it faster if I wasn't distracted with stuff like paying attention to my significant other creature. Those can be a pain sometimes when they interrupt what I would call my favorite kinds of...

PANTSER's GUIDE TO NANOPepTalk and Steps!
(Version 2) It's that time again, Nanowrimo, the month of November dedicated towards the goal of writing 50k words in 30 days.

If you don't want the pep talk scroll until you see STEP ONE!

Think I'm crazy?

In the words of Cage from Ally Mcbeal , "I will not be disparaged."

Meaning, I will not let the craziness of my goal be reduced in esteem because writing 50k words in 30 days is a feat my friends! I tried last year and failed... not because I couldn't do...

Tears You Apart (The Immortal World Book 4)[image error]

Hadrian Catane never wrote a law he couldn’t keep. Until now. Hadrian’s Laws are very clear on vampire-human interaction: No human can know of the immortals’ existence; those who do must die.

Aubrianna Pennington only wanted a quick drive to clear her head. She would have been home for dinner if it wasn’t for the accident. In the dark and the rain, an angel comes for her, but not to take her to the afterlife.
