A Ghoulish Midlife
A Ghoulish Midlife: A Paranormal Women's Fiction Novel | Lia Davis, L a Boruff
1 post | 1 read | 1 reading
Widow and empty nester, Ava Harper, never dreamed of turning forty without the love of her life. Nor did she know she would bury her favorite aunt, who raised her after the death of her mother, a few years later. Then again, she doesn't have the power of foresight. No, her powers are much darker. Powers she has kept behind lock and key. With her only son off to college and her life savings depleted, Ava returns home to Shipton Harbor, Maine. She's only there to clean out, fix up, and sell the family home. But like everything in her life in the last five years, things change. Plans get canceled. Arriving in Shipton Harbor is like stepping into another world. Her high school rival is married to her best friend and is set on making up for every devious thing she did when they were teens. The magic in the house reawakens, making it impossible to sell. It doesn't want new owners, apparently. And to top it all, the sheriff looks like he belongs on the cover of a romance novel. When an old friend of the family turns up dead, Ava must delve deep into the powers she's repressed all her adult life to find the killer. Only a necromancer could've killed her friend. Now she must open up to her own wells of dark magic to find the murderer while working with the hottie sheriff she's sure has his own secrets.

CatLass007 If this is your kind of thing, have you read any of Robyn Peterman‘s series? If not, I would recommend Good to the Last Death and Good to the Last Demon. I‘m still trying to decide about My So-Called Mystical Midlife. (edited) 2w

ShananigansReads @CatLass007 I‘ve read all 3 series. Just picked up the last two in the GTTLDemon and GTTLDeath series books in the Audible sale. Love her books! I like the first 3 of Mystical Midlife but wasn‘t interested in the last two. (edited) 2w
CatLass007 I finished the first one and it was okay. I don‘t know what‘s missing. The second one is free for the month so I‘ll listen to it also. But buying the third one may not happen. And I really dislike the way the author has written the cat. All animals have their own personalities, of course, but animals are not born being bad. It‘s about breeding and training. (edited) 2w
ShananigansReads @CatLass007 yes. It seems to be an outlier compared to the other series. I‘m going to start the Hot Damned series soon. Maybe it‘s a fluke. 2w
CatLass007 The Hot Damned series seems like fun. So does the Shift Happens series. 2w
ShananigansReads @CatLass007 I‘m excited to start it. I should probably be focusing on finishing some series that I know are over but why make sense when you can make chaos. 2w
CatLass007 So many books so little time. 2w
CatLass007 I‘m about to finish up the second book in the series. The third book is not free so I‘m wondering if I should buy it. Any thoughts? I read the descriptions of the fourth and fifth books and they‘re not the same characters at all. No wonder the last two didn‘t interest you. 2w
ShananigansReads I like the way it closed out the story but I got them all from the library. It‘s worth purchasing if you need the closure. 2w
