I expected midlife to change me, but I never expected this…

Finding out that my origins have cosmic ramifications has really put the pressure on me. And while my friends and I defied the odds and stopped the Pretender, our victory left unexpected consequences.

Mainly my boyfriend becoming my enemy—and my potential old-new love interest returning to my life.

On top of that, Fallen villains created open deals with immortal gods who revel in chaos.

And If I want to save the magical and human worlds from destruction, I’ll have to reconcile my mysterious family lineage with my mortal life.

But what I crave most is my own happily ever after, but in order to get that, I’ll have to decide what I’m willing to sacrifice to keep the people and town I love safe.

Because peace always comes at a price; so what will mine be?

On my list of things I never thought I’d hear myself say; ‘Werewolves’ are the best kissers’ is certainly at the top. But here I am, one sheriff-shifter boyfriend later, and it’s absolutely true.

Who knew that all it took to fix my love life was a man who could walk on all fours?

After the Pretender’s defeat, life in Mystic Falls has mostly moved on, but I can’t seem to shake this nagging feeling that something isn’t right. And whether by choice—or force—the other man who held a piece of my heart, Jack, is still missing.

And now, with more mysterious disappearances emerging, it’s clear that things aren’t as peaceful as they seem. My investigative instincts tell me there’s a new monster on the loose—and if I don’t discover them, they’ll finish what the Pretender started and destroy everything I’ve come to love.

But in order to save Mystic Falls, the only place I’ve ever belonged, I’ll have to face my past to pave a new way forward. Armed with my favorite boots, my furry familiar, and my posse of magical misfits, we’re going to kick some major bad guy booty.

Who says it’s all downhill after forty?

At this point in my life, any ideas I had about fairytales coming true have gone up in flames.

Instead of working as a star reporter, I’m stuck writing obituaries; and the only person waiting up for me at night is covered in fur.

With my forty-year mark around the corner, I decide it’s time for a fresh start—and a chance encounter tells me exactly where I should go…

Mystic Falls, Massachusetts seems like any other quaint east coast town. And the biggest scandal I expect to find is that the mayor doesn’t bake his own Christmas cookies.

Instead, I discover a whole lot more.

Now, I’ve found myself squarely in the middle of a supernatural murder mystery and the clock is ticking on a foreboding prophecy that only I can solve.

No one expects their happily-ever-after to end at forty—but here I am one Prince Charming short of a fairytale.

Living back at Mom’s place with her and Gram is not how this ex district attorney intended to start the next chapter of her life, but I shouldn’t be surprised it’s where I ended up.

You see, my family is cursed. Literally.

At least that’s what both Gram and Mom claim. I’ve never given much thought to their ridiculous superstitions, but when three local patrons from my mom’s occult shop end up dead, even I’m a bit unnerved.

So, I decide to dive right into the crazy headfirst. And what I thought would be the end of my journey…may only be the beginning.
