When magical midlife hits, you lose some, you win some, and your second-chance life sure can get interesting.

Cassie’s ex-husband kept the Boston townhouse and the friends. She kept the dog, the midlife hot flashes, and the car, which she uses to drive the heck out of town on a mission to rediscover herself and her family’s Texas roots.

The supernatural surprises begin during Cassie’s drive south when her Pekingese starts talking and a ghostly gramma on the run from the law appears in her backseat. Wondering whether it’s perimenopause or just her mind playing nasty tricks on her, Cassie tightens her grip on the steering wheel ... and her sanity, and keeps driving.

Once the paranormal po-po begin tailing her and a pair of trolls try to kill her, Cassie realizes her ghostly grandmother isn’t the only one in danger--and her brand-new witchy magic is the only chance she has of staying alive and clearing her grandmother’s name. Otherwise, her fresh start on life will be over before it begins and her newfound, but very dead gramma will wind up in ghost jail for a murder she didn't commit. 

The Kitchen Witchery series features a cast full of quirky characters, including a pair of sassy, snarky magical dogs, a ghostly gramma with a warrant (or two), a powerful Voodoo Queen, a couple of quite nice zombies, a teeny tiny fairy assassin with a drinking problem and a deadly power, a hot supernatural cop, and a pair of dangerous but dumb troll hitmen, to name just a few.

The Kitchen Witchery series features tons of humor, plus new mid-life beginnings, old family secrets, forever friendships, and a touch of romance, along with a massive dose of mystery, magic, mayhem, and more. Oh, and a whole bunch of maple muffins. Don't forget the maple muffins.

Book Two Coming in August 2026!

The Lemon Croissant Corpse

Cassie is a freshly single forty-something newbie witch with a lot on her plate ...  including a murderous enemy.

What with her café opening to the public in less than a week, a murder to investigate, and a soon-to-be-ex boyfriend keeping her in the dark, Casie has way too many plates in the air. If one falls, it may be the end of everything … including her life.
