Rumor has it that midlife is for drinking wine, traveling, and discovering the joy of life. But there's no rest for the wicked. Or for a Fae-witch hybrid like myself. Danger follows me everywhere - even to the grocery store - as the evil entity continues to stalk supernaturals in Cottlehill Wilds. But I barely have time to worry about that now that the Fae Queen is dead. My bad. No, seriously. I let my power loose and it took over. Leaving Grams behind to return to Eidothea and fight a war wasn't exactly in my plans. As usual, I'm totally clueless. At least I have my orthotic inserts to keep me on my feet and Sebastian and his irresistible kisses to lift my spirits when things go wrong. And let's face it: things are going to go wrong. Just because I can cast a spell without burning off my eyebrows now doesn't mean I can survive giant trolls, bogharts, or the insane Fae King. And since my best friends refuse to let me face this battle alone, the stress of saving the realm and the people I love most in both worlds is threatening to turn me prematurely grey. Sometimes being the Guardian really sucks.

Guess who just discovered her Phoenix lineage? I'd rather go back to just being cursed. Hot flashes have nothing on bursting into flames... Imps are taking over Cottlehill Wilds, wreaking havoc at every turn. Chasing them around my store with unreliable magic, while not alerting the mundies, is harder than raising twins. To make matters worse, the target on my back has never been bigger since I killed the demon our resident psychopath summoned. Car bombs and ambush hoards? Someone really wants me out of the picture. And wouldn't you know that Fate has decided to mess with whatever is developing between me and Thanos just as I finally decided to open up to him. Bad news for all the haters: it's going to take more than a car bomb, a trip to the Underworld, and a dip in the River Lethe to get under my lightly wrinkled skin. With a top-of-the-line moisturizer and a fully charged fire extinguisher, I've got this too.

The Dark One, Blood Magic, and a goddess with a vendetta are all in a day's work for the Backside of Forty. And they pale in comparison to being the single mom of a dragon baby. The magical world doesn't believe in maternity leave. As soon as my baby arrives the Dark One doubles her efforts to steal enough power to become a goddess. Set on a wild goose chase that leaves too many mundie victims along the way, I haven't had a moment's rest. The secret of paranormals is about to be exposed and the hellmouth is on the verge of collapse. No one is safe in Cottlehill Wilds and it's up to my best friends and me to make sure evil doesn't prevail. Didn't I mention we're superheroines? With the man that I love by my side and a new baby to care for, I have more on the line than ever before. This is the fight of our lives, and it will take all of my wit and power to eliminate the threat to our world. Now is the time we show our enemies why messing with our coven is a bad idea.

Being held prisoner is just the beginning of my descent into despair. It's the poison and the desperate escape that seal the deal. The stakes are higher than ever when I wake up tied to a strange table. Once I have my bearings, I realize that the Dark witch battling me from the very beginning may very well have finally won our war. My morale is low as I'm helpless to fight her, and soon I find myself on the brink. Anything could happen this time, and I'm fully prepared. My nursing skills are rusty, but when I need them most, I discover they aren't entirely lost. Surgically removing demonic stones isn't my idea of a good time, but I have to do whatever I can to ensure that evil does not win. To top it off I still have to rescue my mate, and I can't do that alone. Thank goodness I have the help of my best friend, my dragon, and a dwarf.

Fiona, Violet, and Aislinn continue their journey as Hunters. Full description coming soon.

The Six Twisted Sisters are facing their hardest challenge yet... hosting the holidays for their entire family at the plantation. To make their mother's holiday dreams finally come true, the sisters invite the entire extended family to spend the winter holidays at Willowberry Plantation. But being surrounded by their brothers, the children, and everyone else they love makes it more difficult than ever to see the growing target painted on their backs. And all too soon they're up to their magical eyeballs in chaos. Just because the children are grown doesn't mean they no longer love playing pranks on one another. The seemingly harmless acts make it difficult to determine innocuous events from dangerous ones. And when strange supernatural beings start popping up, the sisters must formulate a new plan to stop Mad Marie and her evil loa before someone pays the ultimate price. Can the sextet stop whatever wicked plan is afoot before it ruins their festivities?

In the face of the most powerful creature I've ever encountered, everything that matters is on the line. Including my life... When I discover the Dark witch that holds my mate hostage, I must work through my anger to save Aidoneus before it's too late. That's easier said than done since I'm compelled to seek the help of his father, Hades. Let's face it, the God of the Underworld doesn't think I'm good enough for his son. Before I can face off with Hades, Stella and I are forced to venture beyond the Underworld to a place where no one escapes - not even the most powerful of the gods. Taking on the dangers of Tartarus tests my magical abilities and leaves us hanging on by a thread. Unfortunately for us, the return trip is not for the weak or the weary. Our fragile human bodies may not survive, and for the first time since I became a witch it's clear that I'm burning the candle at both ends.

With a dangerous Object of Power in a mundie’s hands, the Backside of Forty is off to Greece for a danger-filled adventure deep in the ancient playground of the Gods and Goddesses... The goddess Artemis exerting her influence over our lives is proving to be a bigger pain in the ass than we expected. As her missions take us away from Cottlehill Wilds and our mates more often than not, it seems our biggest challenge is simply not resenting her. Up next on our itinerary? Hunting down a human archaeologist who somehow got his hands on a downright deadly artifact. Locating our target is no simple task, but with the help of our magical skills we track the archaeologist halfway across the globe. There isn't time to appreciate the beautiful ruins of ancient Greece as we navigate Zeus' magical traps and mind mythological monsters. This is much more than a simple retrieval mission, and it seems someone else has plans for the Object of Power. Suddenly this mission is a race against the clock, and the outcome is a matter of life and death. If we can't find the Object, countless lives will be lost, and the magical world will finally be exposed.

At this point in my life, I don't need help forgetting things. I just wish I could remember how I wound up being accused of murder... Someone's been stealing pixie dust from the forest on my property, but I don't have time to figure out who they are or what they're up to. Instead, I've got to track down the missing ashes of a witch who could manipulate the mind. All leads point us to a mundie business where Stella and I find a coven of shady ladies practicing some very dark magic. We weren't looking for a fight, but as usual, we found one. Thank goodness Stella always has my back, and we make it out mostly unscathed. The next thing I know, Todd's asking questions about dead mundies while his wife and I are arrested for murder. Locked up with memory loss and zero answers is demoralizing and not at all how Stella and I thought this investigation would end. Our loved ones want to help us put the missing pieces together, but we're quickly growing desperate. Is it worth breaking out before we have a breakthrough?

As a magical hurricane bears down on the Crescent City, the Twisted Sisters must brave the rain and winds to hunt down the source before everyone they love is killed... When one of their own is framed for multiple murders, the Voodoo Queen and Baron Samedi quickly, become the least of the Twisted Sisters' concerns. As Delphine's stalker grows bold, the sisters do what they can to ensure Phi's students remain safe despite the fact that the evidence suggests something far more terrifying than evil loas and mambos. Could a mundie serial killer really be on the loose? Concerns over the return of the Skinwalker continue to grow, compounded by the mystery of a supernatural storm threatening to be the worst the city has ever seen. The search for the origins of the meteorological magic leads them below the city streets to a secret demon ward before nearly blowing them away. Confronting those involved in the chaos challenges the sisters' desire to make friends rather than enemies, but it will take the help of every friend and ally they've ever made through the Aegis Council if they're to have any hope of saving those they love most.

When Grams is kidnapped as part of a nefarious plot, the Backside of Forty is plunged into a world they aren't prepared to navigate... To rescue their beloved Grams, the coven will stop at nothing, even if it means a wild journey through mystical markets and The Library of All Knowledge. Meanwhile, the goddess Artemis would rather the ladies focus on her priorities, none of which have anything to do with Grams' predicament. As they uncover Artemis' secrets, conflicting motives begin to appear. Trouble finds the witches no matter where they go, and soon the Backside of Forty finds itself working with the Pleiades to uncover the truth about the Fountain of Youth before it's too late. But saving the fountain from falling into the wrong hands could mean losing Grams, and the coven isn't willing to make that sacrifice. Can they find a way to make it all work with the help of their midlife magic? Find out in this captivating tale of supernatural sisterhood, mystery, and the importance of family.

A shocking revelation rocks my world as Persephone herself prepares me to expect the unexpected. A dark cloud looms as I navigate a staggering new development when my mother, our pillar of strength and guidance, vanishes without a trace. In spite of my despair, I’m determined to unravel the mystery. Instead, I stumble upon a lifeless woman, only to uncover her startling secret: she’s a tribrid with extraordinary attributes of a witch, a vampire, and a shifter. Her very existence sparks a conflagration of questions, each one more enigmatic than the last. The search for my mother propels through a treacherous journey into society’s underbelly, where danger lurks at every turn. Amidst the chaos, my loyal familiar and steadfast companion suddenly goes into labor. Desperate to save her unborn babies, I am now out of options and in a race against time. I call on Hades for assistance, hoping that he will hold the key. As the stakes rise and precious time is lost, I face a heart-wrenching choice: save my mother or safeguard the lives of the newborn familiars. The line between life and death has never been so thin, and I must summon every ounce of my magic and my courage to make my way through this wickedly fated web. Can I unlock the power within to rescue those I hold dear before it’s too late?

Fiona, VIolet & Aislinn's adventures continue.

Well, well, well, isn't my life just a magical joyride? Here I am, a middle-aged witch, minding my own supernatural business when bam! Fate throws not one but two curveballs my way. I'd love to slow down long enough to adjust to the news that I'm carrying Aidon's twins, but that's not an option. A case I can't refuse is dropped into my lap, and I'll do whatever it takes to help a pair of frantic shifter parents find their missing daughter. After all, if a pack of shifters can't track one of their own, something sinister must be afoot. Armed with our magical prowess, my bestie Stella and I quickly run into the roadblock that frustrated the shifters. The clues are confusing, but every road of this merry chase leads us to a certain Dark witch. You know, the one I thought my dear old father-in-law Hades had under control. With the child's life on the line, I have no choice but to force a very confrontational family reunion. But getting to the bottom of this mystery doesn't end there, and with every step I take it seems a new trap awaits me. The clock is ticking, hope is fading, and the path forward has never been more dangerous. But helping the shifters is the right thing to do, and I don't know how to quit. Will it be triumph or failure waiting for me at the end of this wild wolf chase?

In a world where the threads of reality fray and unravel like a well-worn tapestry, my life is abruptly woven into a tangled mess of fate. The cost of my transformation is greater than I could have imagined. A cataclysmic upheaval shakes the foundation of my entire family, threatening to tear us apart. The toll nearly claims my beloved husband's life, pushing the boundaries of our endurance to their very limits. Unfortunately, I cannot escape this ethereal web of fate. Thrust into a role I never asked for, I have no choice but to evolve until I become a guardian of relics. I will carry the weight of ancient powers and hidden truths like a sentinel in a world teetering on the precipice of chaos, or I will perish while trying. To protect those I hold dear, I accept a task as treacherous as dancing with a witch's curse, as daunting as taming a raging storm. Desperately racing against time to construct a sanctuary for the mystical artifacts that hold the key to both salvation and destruction is as much to safeguard my loved ones as it is to protect the antiquities themselves. With the most precious lives hanging in the balance, I simply cannot afford to fail. As I journey through realms both arcane and familiar, I grapple with the burden of my destiny. The mundane and the mystical clash deep within me, testing my resolve and unraveling everything I thought to be real about my ordinary life. Armed with endless love, determination, and a touch of sarcasm, I press onward, seeking answers to my questions and untangling the secrets knitted within the ancient remains I'm now compelled to protect. My name is Nylah, and this is the story of how the goddess Artemis saw fit to turn my life upside down by shaping my magical being into a Relic Keeper.

For anyone who thinks midlife is for sipping tea and taking it slow, I have terrible news. And I've only just begun to untangle the mess that fate left at my doorstep... I've barely settled into my new supernatural midlife with another call drops in about a missing relic. And putting the finishing touches on my Sanctum will have to wait, as this is no everyday, run-of-the-mill artifact. Oh, no. This is a Siren Song, straight from the treasure trove of a Balinese clan. And as my never-ending bad luck would have it, the Song has fallen into the hands of a clueless mundie. There are worse places to jet off to, of course. Bali is beautiful, but I can't stay long. My whirlwind chase is quickly redirected to the bustling streets of New York City. But my rollercoaster ride to secure the relic doesn't stop there. Up and down the entire east coast, I pursue the mischievous Siren Song. And the Siren Song gleefully leaves a trail of supernatural chaos in its wake. Soon, I'm having very real doubts about my ability to be the Relic Keeper. Whatever Artemis saw in me, I can safely say I am not certain that I see in myself. The clock is ticking louder than ever, and my cup of choice is no longer just tea. With the artifact's power swiftly growing, it won't be long before I'm out of my depth and unable to secure it. I call in reinforcements in the form of my two best friends, but I'm still not confident that we can retrieve this mesmerizing relic before it ensnares the entire nation. Get ready for a wild magical ride filled with unexpected twists, hairpin turns, and some supernatural mayhem you simply won't believe!

You might think my midlife adventures couldn't get any wilder. But you would be wrong... Buckle up. You're in for a ride! One minute, Stella and I are getting matching BFF tattoos, and the next, I wake up alone on a secluded beach. Not exactly the relaxing getaway I had in mind. As it turns out, I'm on Obsidian Isle, a mystical rock in the middle of nowhere. Magic here? It's a hot mess, like my hormones or my first attempt at a soufflé. But as they say, when life gives you broken magic, you... trek through a jungle to find your best friend! I was expecting to find Stella in a mess of bugs and thorny vines. Instead, I discover a group of people who've been lost on this island for decades. If only that's where the oddities ended. And reuniting with Stella isn't all fruity drinks and beautiful sunsets. Before we know it, we're facing off with demons and negotiating with trolls just to find food, all the while dodging the Tainted witch, Lyra. Grab your broomstick—or at the very least, a sturdy walking stick—and join us on this magical rollercoaster. Can we escape this enchanting mess and get back to reality? Well, probably. But where's the fun in that?

The Twisted Sisters continue their supernatural midlife in New Orleans.

In this gripping tale, three middle-aged mavens armed with cauldrons and sarcasm find themselves knee-deep in the Crimson Moon curse... When a desperate friend shows up at Pymm's Pondside with a deadly hex and a plea for help, the Backside of Forty embark on a quest that takes them from cozy tea shops to the shadowy halls of the Protectorate Guild. As Fiona, Aislinn, and Violet navigate the perils of the magical realm and the challenges of menopause, they seek the guidance of a gargoyle in their quest for the elusive cure. But this journey isn't all wand-waving and potion-brewing; it's a wild ride across England, uncovering secrets that make their cauldrons bubble with more than just magic. Will they gather the rare ingredients, outwit the witch behind the curse, and save their friend before the Crimson Moon claims its final victim? Find out in this spellbinding tale where midlife becomes a magical adventure, and the real magic lies in the power of friendship – and maybe a well-timed hot flash or two. Join the Backside of Forty coven, where midlife crises come with a side of witchy mysteries and a snarky comment for every spell.

The stakes are the highest they've ever been when fate decides now is the time for me to start a wild phoenix chase... I'm still not sure I'm meant to be Relic Keeper but the work is never-ending. What's on the agenda now? A call for help from Phoebe that sends me and my trusty sidekicks into action. The Emberflare phoenix clan is missing a very important relic. And while the circumstances are mysterious at best and nefarious at worst, the most important thing is that we retrieve it. And this is no ordinary knick-knack. It's the Phoenix Flame itself! So much for the safety and security of their entire clan. As our mission takes us from the secretive phoenix clan lands, where every winged wonder seems to know everyone's business, to the chilly tundras that can freeze your magic socks off, I find myself talking icy creatures out of turning us into powerful popsicles each day. Then comes the twist we never saw coming. False accusations, endless chaos, and enough mayhem to make any sane person go nuts follow us from one frozen realm to the next. Now it's obvious this artifact adventure isn't as straightforward as it seemed. But how do we find out who is behind this whole mess before the relic falls into the wrong talons? One wrong move and we'll create a phoenix-sized catastrophe that will leave us all burning with regret!

Is there ever a typical day in my life? Not with dark magic, ghostly invasions, and impending motherhood on the agenda... Hi, I'm Phoebe, and my weekend plans just got hijacked by a rogue poltergeist and a supernatural flower-picking expedition. Here's the deal: Persephone has a plan that might just save me and my triplets, but it involves my spouse braving the Underworld to snag a Shadow Orchid—because apparently our garden variety geraniums just won't cut it. While my hubby plays hero, I'm stuck dealing with a spectral nightmare named Hattie who has decided my home is the perfect new haunt. And let me be clear that she is not the friendly ghost type. To top it off, my belly is growing faster than my fear of supernatural entities (and that's saying something), and my family's idea of emotional support involves throwing magic spells and herbal teas at every problem. Just when we think we've got it all under control, Hattie turns my house into Poltergeist Central. Now, with Aidon and my in-laws locked out, it's up to me and my motley crew of magical misfits to fend off dark forces, save my skin, and brew up a storm. Literally, not just metaphorically. Grab your popcorn and your protective talismans (or both) and settle in for a tale of magic, mayhem, and maternity. This chapter in my life is proving to be an extra-bumpy ride!
