A witch without powers. A secret to die for. A midlife sapphic awakening? A few months ago, I thought I had it all. My life as a forty-something suburban mom in Cleveland might not have been stimulating, but sometimes excitement is overrated. Like when FBI agents knock down your door on the hunt for your crook of a husband. Thrilling? Maybe. But I wouldn't recommend it. After twenty-five years, I'm returning home without a penny to my name. But there are far worse things than living in your family's bed-and-breakfast on a remote island in Maine. Being a witch who's lost her powers, for example. Or having two daughters on the brink of getting their magic and having no idea they're witches. To complicate matters, a mysterious group of magical enforcers called the Shadow Council blamed me for my twin sister's death years ago and banned me from ever returning home. But I have nowhere else to go. My plan is to keep a low profile, land a job, and get back on my feet. My plan does not include finding a mysterious old trunk in the attic, having a famous author drop dead while staying at our inn, being haunted by his ghost, or having my powers return in scary and unexpected ways. I can also assure you I have no intention of developing a crush on someone who will have me questioning everything I ever thought I knew about who I am. Then again, you know what they say about the best laid plans... If you're hungry for a paranormal story that celebrates women over 40 and strong female friendships, with snarky humor, quirky family members, a mischievous cat, a murder mystery, time travel, ghosts, and a leather wearing, motorcycle-riding physician who sparks an unexpected midlife sapphic awakening, look no further than Midlife is the Cat's Meow! My So-Called Hexed Midlife is a fresh new series of paranormal women's midlife fiction from the Goldie award-winning writing duo T.B. Markinson and Miranda MacLeod. This series was inspired by the characters and mysteries in the Witches of Pinecroft Cove cozy mystery series, which the authors published under the pen name Nicole St Claire in 2019-2021. The books have been entirely reworked to transform them into sapphic paranormal women's fiction mysteries, but if you have read the other series, certain circumstances may feel familiar. You are not losing your marbles. Readers should be aware this book contains mild profanity and a same-sex romance.
