Witch Interrupted: Women's Paranormal Fiction (Midlife in Harmony Grove)

Description

Meet Samara Kane, the Witch who won’t wear ‘Crone’ well…
Turning fifty is supposed to be fabulous, right? Samara Kane, a witch with more sass than a black cat in a feather boa, thinks so. Except for the stiff joints, reading glasses, and the constant need for a hair dye intervention, it’s all fine wine and magic spells. And sure, the villa in Spain makes it easier to deal with the advancing years.

Enter Sage, Samara’s determined daughter. She’s finished high school in Europe and is now hell-bent on exploring the family roots in the mystical village of Harmony Grove. It’s across the pond, back home in Canada.

Samara knows the place all too well—the village harboring not one but two covens of powerful witches. The magical waters of the Stream and the Cove are the center of their lives, and the wellspring of their powers. Naturally, there’s been constant friction between the two leading families on how things are run.

Samara fled to Spain years ago, seeking calm and avoiding magical chaos. But Sage is as stubborn as her mom, declaring, “I’m going, with or without you!”

“Fine! Go, and you’ll come running back!” Samara retorts.

Well, Sage has been gone a year and doesn’t seem to have any intention of returning to Spain.

Samara’s not been alone though. No sooner did Sage clear out for her trip than Max pads in the door. The window, actually. Max is more than the street-smart alley cat he appears to be.

For starters, he can talk, but only Samara understands him. Guess who Max claims as his “familiar”? That’s right—Samara herself, a soon-to-be “cat lady” at fifty.

“Relax, Bubelah,” Max reassures her. “You and I share a remarkable history…”

He’s not kidding; but it’s a history that’s more Jerry Springer than Hallmark.

When Samara gets news that her elderly Nana is severely ill, she’s pulled back to Harmony Grove—a place she vowed never to return. Jet-lagged and dealing with prickly relatives, Samara’s world gets crazier with her sassy feline companion.

Max does better with this family reunion than she does.

And just when she thinks things can’t get worse—or better—an old flame resurfaces.

Raylan Foster is still single? Hmmm… Things are starting to brew nicely for Samara’s love life.

But this witch’s caldron gets dumped on its side when a murder shocks the village and Samara becomes the prime suspect. She has 48 hours to prove her innocence, or the covens will strip her of magic. She’ll be trading spells for an orange jumpsuit.
