Expanding the Cold Fever Books Universe

One of the things I’ve always loved about writing is that it doesn’t need to end when the final page is turned. The worlds, the atmosphere, the characters — they linger. Over the years, readers of Tender Eyes, Ash Wednesday, The Boney Man, and the Cold Fever titles have reached out asking where these stories live beyond the books.

Matt Heart added a status update: This book is blowing my mind. Truth Hurts hits harder than anything I’ve read in years. It exposes history, faith, psychology, and deception with clarity and courage. Every chapter feels like a wake-up call. I’m only halfway through and already know this is one of the most important books I’ll finish this year. Takes everything we’ve been taught about faith, history, and belief and turns it inside out with evidence

Quotes by Matt Heart (?)

“Life is like a book—each day a page, each year a chapter, and before you can figure out the ending, it's over. Live life to the fullest. Don’t wait for opportunity to knock; be a carpenter, build your own door, and walk boldly through it.”
