Welcome to Hollywood Lakes, where the magic begins at midlife. When Shay reopens Hollywood Lakes Inn, her biggest worry is whether the plumbing on the 200-year-old house will spring another leak. But as she readies for her first VIP guest, she’s caught in flashbacks that never actually happened—memories so vivid she wonders if she’s losing her perimenopausal mind. With no time to dwell, she focuses on Porter Nichols, the famous screenwriter renting the entire second floor as a writing retreat. He’s got a script to finish and a terrible case of writer’s block. But when an unexpected guest arrives bringing along some disgruntled muses, Shay senses the problem is magical in nature. The deeper she delves into Porter’s mystery, the more her own is revealed, and the fate of the word witch is called into question. She’ll need to summon all of her power—and the ghost of her beloved grandmother—to protect the legacy of the witch. Hollywood Lakes Magical Midlife is a coming-of-middle-age series filled with witchy adventures, ride-or-die friends, and a slow-burn romance. (And wine. Lots of wine.)
