Publisher Description
Hailey’s dreams have always been, well...vivid. As in monsters from her nightmares follow her into her waking life vivid.
When her big sister goes missing, eighteen-year-old Hailey finds the only thing keeping her safe from a murderous 3,000-year old beast is an equally terrifying creature who has fallen “madly” in love with her. Competing to win her affection, the Dream Creature, Asher, lures her to the one place that offers safety—a ParaScience university in Alaska he calls home. There, she studies the science of the supernatural and must learn to live with a roommate from Hell, survive her ParaScience classes, and hope the only creature who can save her from an evil immortal doesn’t decide to kill her himself.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
A teenager gets caught in a dangerous supernatural conflict in McCoy's promising but overstuffed paranormal romance. Hailey Hartley's dreams about a mysterious boy become much more vivid after her older sister is murdered. Soon after, Hailey meets him in the flesh: he's an "Envoy" named Asher, responsible for ferrying life energy released when someone dies across dimensional planes. The Envoys have become trapped on Earth, Hailey could be the key to freeing them, and her life is in danger as a result. But first she's off to Bear Towne University in remote Alaska to study "ParaScience," though she isn't necessarily safe there, given such hazards as invisible interdimensional portals and carnivorous splinters from man-eating trees. McCoy has fun fleshing out the details of Hailey's life at Bear Towne, though it isn't entirely clear how the many supernatural aspects of the novel fit together. Characters don't always react in believable ways (at one point Hailey accepts a dinner invitation with the Envoy who killed her sister without argument), though readers who invest in Hailey's story may be intrigued by a cliffhanger ending that sets up a sequel. Ages 14 up. (BookLife)

This genre really does not interest me but I saw the trailer and decided to read it. I am very happy i decided to read Eerie by C.M McCoy because it was fantastic. The characters come to life with every word written. I could feel for every character even the strange ones. Authors often fail to portray strange personalities such as a love struck other worldly being. Yet the reader can feel the hope,anger and anguish throughout the story.
I highly recommend reading this book even if you do not read this genre.
Kudos to C.M McCoy for penning such a fantastic book.
