Synopsis

Butter, Sugar, Magic (Book 1: Baking Up a Magical Midlife series)

Embracing a midlife transformation has never been more delicious—or baffling.

At best, she's expecting a kitschy candy dish. At worst, a beloved taxidermied pet. So when Cassie—newly divorced single mom with zero prospects—discovers she's inheriting a fully stocked bakery along with a beautifully furnished apartment from a mysterious great aunt, she's convinced she must be dreaming.

The apartment that bizarrely adapts itself to her whims? The friendly neighbor casually floating fireballs over her head? Yeah, those aren't helping her grip on reality.

Cassie faces two choices:

She can hightail it out of this bewildering town and figure out another way to support her pre-teen daughter. Or she can stay and live the life of her dreams in this unsettling place where the rules of physics don't seem to apply, and people are suspiciously friendly and welcoming.

When Cassie and her daughter agree to give this new place a trial run (the fantastic pet shop next door is a helpful draw), she's not convinced they've made the right choice.

That hesitation just might cost her the fantastic life she and her daughter deserve.

This cozy paranormal women's fiction features:

• Surprise magic and self-discovery
• Fantastic friendships and found family
• A magical bakery in a small beach town
• Midlife transformation with heart
• Mother-daughter bonding
• Uplifting themes and happy endings

Perfect for readers who love: Annabel Chase, K.F. Breene, Shannon Mayer, Linzi Day, Kristen Painter, and Iris Beaglehole—as well as cozy fantasy, midlife magic stories, witch fiction with strong friendships, and heartwarming tales of finally discovering where you belong.

Welcome to the small beach town of Portney. The coffee is hot, the pastries are magical, and your new friends can't wait to hang out with you.

About this title

About the Author

I was an avid reader long before I became a writer and I was a blogger long before I became a novelist. But these days, writing fiction that helps people escape reality for a bit is my greatest joy.Aloha Also Means Goodbye was almost entirely written at a cramped table at my favorite Starbucks with my infant daughter in her car seat at my feet. These days I tend to write in my cozy little home office, with a dog or two under my desk. The people watching isn't as good, but the company and the cheap coffee can't be beat.My first Paranormal Women's Fiction series is launching July 26, 2022 and there are no words for how excited I am to be sharing this book with all of you.You can learn much more about me on my blog: www.itsjessicaslife.com and sign up for email updates at blueoctopuspress.com.
