Magical Midlife Survival Guide
(2022)(The first book in the The Wine, Chocolate & Paranormal Shenanigans series)
A novel by Larissa Emerald
Lainie Cassidy is done trying to be good enough in someone else’s eyes. With the unbreakable spirit of a warrior, strong and brave and deserving of happiness, Lainie is more than ready to call on the magic she hadn’t known she’d inherited.
Forty-two-year-old Lainie takes her two kids and leaves her abusive husband. She’s determined to face her fears and make it on her own. With an eye on her budget, she digs through boxes for items to use in homemade Halloween costumes and discovers a forgotten pocket watch from her Nana. This beloved treasure thrusts her into a new world where magic is real. As she learns the unpredictable nature of the timepiece plus the mysterious relation it has to books, she struggles to keep this newfound power secret from her kids, friends, and family. To her dismay, the magic has designs of its own.
Lainie finds dealing with moody teens and the betrayal of her aging body hard enough, but when things start conjuring out of seemingly nowhere, she won’t survive without a heavy dose of wine and chocolate. Add in friends to help and she might yet withstand these paranormal shenanigans.
Larissa’s Note: This is the first book in The Wine, Chocolate & Paranormal Shenanigan Series that celebrates a fun, magic-filled rags-to-riches Cinderella story where the heroine transforms into a kickass warrior in a Realm she doesn’t know exists. This book has a happy-for-now ending. Book 2, Magical Midlife Uncorked will release at in Mid-November.
Genre: Paranormal Romance
