Inspirational Stories Written From the Heart

First and foremost, I want to give a personal ‘thank you’ to award winning author, Yvonne mason, for assembling this amazing group of loving and caring individuals – she included. Bravo to, Kelly J. DeSantis, on the amazing book cover design – absolutely beautiful.  

‘Pennies From Heaven’ is a collection of inspirational stories expressing from the heart the pain and suffering of losing a loved one. We know death is inevitable, a part of life, a final departure. But how does one survive life when confronted with the death of a loved one – it really is a fight for survival for those left behind. There really is no right or wrong way – no recipe written or handbook to be read. We must each find our own way of coping with the depression, heartache, and the helplessness death brings. 

This collection includes true stories of those who have experienced the loss of loved ones, and the journey they have taken to come to terms with their own grief. How difficult it must have been to share such personal experiences – yet, they did so in hopes that their story might help others begin to heal.

I highly recommend ‘Pennies From Heaven’ as each story is a tribute to the human spirit.

Five Stars all the way around…!

My Review of 'The Pink Canary' by Yvonne Mason

Title: The Pink Canary

Author: Yvonne Mason
Genre: Thriller/Comedy
Publisher: Lulu

“Hell Hath No Fury Like A Drag Queen Scorned!”

No, ‘The Pink Canary’ is not an English play – although if the great playwright, William Congreve, could be here today, and was given a chance to read ‘The Pink Canary’ by Yvonne Mason, ‘Hell Hath No Fury Like A Drag Queen Scorned’ just might be the title of his next winning play – based on Yvonne Mason’s new book of course, ‘The Pink Canary’.

I have read several of, Yvonne Mason’s literary works but I must say this piece is unique – exceptional in the fact that she waved her magic pencil like a wand – created a fresh storyline that includes some of her most outstanding characters to date.

As the story begins, it takes you on a roller coaster ride from New York to Miami. Imagine for a moment that a serial killer is loose in Miami, and he or she, is targeting Drag queens – accumulating body parts as trophies. An ex-private detective, now headliner and owner of the hottest drag queen establishment in Miami, teams up with a homophobic detective to try to solve the case. Add in ‘one’ badass drag queen toting a can of aqua net hairspray in one hand and a pair of Chinese hooker heals in the other – well, things are going to get ugly very quick!

I gave ‘The Pink Canary’ five stars for originality, delightful humor, and crime fighting suspense!

"Blood Alley" by Yvonne Mason - “Hair Raising – Bloodthirsty – Entertainment!

‘Blood Alley,’ by Yvonne Mason, is a terrifying short story that is unforgettable! The author skillfully weaves a mixture of horror and suspense. Her depiction of the characters and their surroundings are quite chilling. I thought I knew a little about what was in store for me getting into this book, as I have read Mason’s previous work – I was not disappointed! She originates the plot of the story using familiar surroundings and a cast of colorful characters. However, beware – after reading, you will have a second thought before stopping at a truck stop diner, taking an unfamiliar route to get to your destination, and even the howling of your four-legged friend will bring on a new meaning!

You definitely want to read all of Yvonne Mason’s chilling stories.
