About this ebook
Where secrets make their home…
Stopping to help a motorist in trouble, Katie Lynch stumbles upon a mystery as elusive as the Mothman legend that haunts her hometown of Point Pleasant, West Virginia. Could the coded message she finds herald an extraterrestrial visitor? According to locals, it wouldn’t be the first time. And what sense should she make of her young son’s sudden spate of bizarre drawings—and his claim of a late-night visitation? Determined to uncover the truth, Katie only breaks the surface when a new threat erupts. Suddenly her long-gone ex-boyfriend is back and it’s as if he’s under someone else’s control. Not only is he half-crazed, he’s intent on murder….
As a sergeant in the sheriff’s office of the famously uncanny Point Pleasant, Officer Ryan Flynn has learned to tolerate reports of puzzling paranormal events. But single mom Katie Lynch appears to be in very real danger—and somehow Ryan’s own brother, Caden, is caught up in the madness, too. What the skeptical lawman discovers astounds him—and sends him into action. For stopping whatever evil forces are at play may just keep Katie and Caden alive…

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Author Mae Clair returns to Point Pleasant, West Virginia in the second book of her Point Pleasant series, A Cold Tomorrow. To some in Point Pleasant, Katie Lynch had a difficult childhood. She and her sister were raised by a single-mother that most people think enjoyed the company of men a little too much. Katie knew that her mother was a hard-working business owner and someone that always provided nutritious meals for her daughters and tried to provide all that they needed, if not wanted. When Katie's older sister disappeared, most people assumed that she was "wild" and had run away. Now everyone knows that Wendy Lynch had been brutally murdered and buried outside of town all those years ago. Now a single mother herself, Katie is interested in providing a loving and stable home for her son, Sam, working hard at the Parrish Hotel, and growing her friendships with Eve Parrish and Sarah Sherman. Just when Katie thinks things are starting to settle down in Point Pleasant, she comes across a local conspiracy theorist in his car on the side of the road exhibiting very strange behavior. Afterward, she realizes she can't describe the officer that came upon the scene and the name she remembers isn't the name of any officer on any local police force. Adding to Katie's sense of unease, her ex-boyfriend has been spotted in town and is apparently out to get Officer Flynn, and her son's behavior is a bit strange and oddly familiar after he sees a "green cloud." If that's not enough, there are animals being found with strange deaths, the Mothman has been seen again, a local killer has disappeared from a closed room in a local mental facility, and a strange "man in black" is in town. What, if anything, ties these events together? Will Katie and Ryan Flynn be able to uncover the answers before something tragic occurs?I found A Cold Tomorrow to be a fast-paced and intriguing read. If anything, Ms. Clair has raised the intrigue-quotient and paranormal-factor with this book. There's a lot more suspense, paranormal thrills and chills, and I can't wait for the next installment. I like that we get to see the continuing relationship between Eve and Caden, as well as watch the burgeoning relationship between Katie and Ryan. Ms. Clair has provided us with more information on the origin of the Mothman and the men in black (no, I won't tell you any more about either, read the book!). As I've previously stated, as a West Virginia native I'm always on the lookout for books set in West Virginia or written by West Virginians to read and this series has provided hours of pleasure. I've enjoyed reading about this real town and folk legend, combined with the fictional lives and events in these stories. If you enjoy paranormal romantic-suspense (with an emphasis on the paranormal) then you'll definitely want to read A Thousand Yesteryears and A Cold Tomorrow. If you've already read A Thousand Yesteryears, then I urge you to grab a copy of A Cold Tomorrow to read. My only regret with this series is that I have to wait until the Summer of 2017 for the third installment, A Desolate Hour, to find out what happens next.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I once had a boyfriend who wanted to see the movie, Mothman, supposedly based on a true story. It was the worst, most poorly produced and acted, unbelievable movie I can ever remember seeing. It was a total waste of time.Because of that I waded into this book, also based in most part on the Mothman Legend as well as the accompanying flying saucers and Men in Black, not expecting much but was curious because of the great reviews and the book was only 99 cents. I have to admit that the movie probably influenced my objectivity of this book at times. However, this was literally a book I could not put down, and those are extremely few and far between. The characters for the most part were well developed and the book itself was full of suspense pulling me on and on. I could never reach that "stopping point". This is a stand alone book from the first book in the series, but it is not a stand alone book from the next one. It was left with another story to be told and I am anxiously awaiting it. I have not read the first book, and don't really need to, and did not intend to, but it is now scheduled to be the next book I read. This is solely a book for entertainment. There will be no great message to carry away and don't really expect to learn anything that will guide you through your life. But, if like me, you sometimes want nothing more than to be entertained, and enjoy reading about the paranormal, I would recommend this book.
