I am an author, weaving stories about the darker shades in human relationships. The many ways in which they unravel and manifest themselves end up creating stories that thrill, that excite, that scare.

When not writing fiction, I work in a leading consulting and technology services firm. I love travelling, am an avid reader of fiction, and am passionate about photography, movies and music.

Joyce McCarthy Hello Friends,

I am very delighted to tell you about my latest book from Books To Go Now! Its a heart-warming Romance with a hint of Supernatural titled "The Heirloom" The Heirloom by Joyce McCarthy , unfolding in the lovely Isle of Skye in Scotland over Christmas! It is very different from the books I have written so far and I can't wait to hear what you think about my new book. Message me if you want a FREE review copy.

You can buy a copy on Kindle here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07ZQQ6LNY

Blurb:

After his bitter break-up with girlfriend Erica, Kevin heads for his ancestral house in the Isle of Skye to get over his grief and to finish the novel he is working on. He meets Bobby, a child who has strayed into the house and spends his nights in the dusty, dark attic, scavenging through old books and toys that once belonged to Kevin and his cousins.
Kevin finds the family heirloom, a Christmas locket, and his uncle’s diary, which chronicles a heart-warming love story unfolding in that house. What life-changing family secret does Kevin uncover?

Love,
Joyce

An erotic thriller filled with suspense that keeps you guessing throughout the story... Joyce pulls you into the story and holds your attention throughout... the sex scenes were so very hot and were steaming up the pages – Amazon.com

message 5: by Joyce

Joyce McCarthy When I looked at Trails of Sin by Joyce McCarthy being released globally on Kindle, I had a feeling akin to holding my baby for the first time. I could feel my dreams coming true. In those few moments, my mind raced through the entire journey from the germination of an idea to that book taking shape.

Writing is a very personal matter. You work on your manuscript through days and nights, pouring out your dreams, your fantasies, your thoughts and opinions. It is a world you, and only you, dwell in for months.

And, just as a parent brings up a child and then lets him or her go out and face the world, when the book is 'out there', it is no longer your own private haven. It becomes one with the world.

Over the last long weekend, when we made Trails of Sin available FREE on the Kindle platform (Amazon and Amazon UK), for 3 days, the book enjoyed bestseller ranks between #11 and #25 consistently in the Erotic Thriller genre. Being conscious of the sheer number of erotic thrillers / erotic suspense / erotic romances that were FREE over that weekend, those rankings were overwhelming.

A big thanks and lots of love from the bottom of my heart to all of you for embracing Trails of Sin. You touched me - touched me deep!

God bless! <3 <3
