Magical Midlife Crisis Series by S.C. Stokes

My mother always warned me about the creatures of the Otherworld, but I never expected an ice troll to show up at my work. Now I’m out of a job, bills are piling up, and magical monsters keep showing up in my town. When a hotter than Hades bounty hunter crosses my path, I see an opportunity to solve all my problems. He needs an apprentice, and I need a pay check... moreMy mother always warned me about the creatures of the Otherworld, but I never expected an ice troll to show up at my work. Now I’m out of a job, bills are piling up, and magical monsters keep showing up in my town. When a hotter than Hades bounty hunter crosses my path, I see an opportunity to solve all my problems. He needs an apprentice, and I need a pay check. As usual my timing couldn’t be worse, the Fae Courts are on the brink of war and they’re bringing magic, mayhem and murder to my little town. They say life begins at forty, but if I can’t figure out what the Fae want, my forties are going to be the death of me. less

When I imagined my forties, I didn't anticipate quite so many severed heads. When I killed the Red Cap I thought I was saving my family, not starting a war. It turns out when you kill a champion of Winter at Summer's behest, the icy Sidhe take it personally. The Summer Court despise me for who I am, the Winter Court hate me for what I've done. Unless I can turn the tables on the deadly Fae, my midlife crisis is going to cost me my head.

It never snows on the Gold Coast. They call it the Sunshine State for a reason. When the Leanansidhe takes over a local amusement park, Alasdair and I are the first and last line of defence. If we can’t root out this fae incursion all hell might actually freeze over. I might have prevented the Leanansidhe from killing my father. But her failure has only encouraged her to seek a softer target, me... moreIt never snows on the Gold Coast. They call it the Sunshine State for a reason.

I might have prevented the Leanansidhe from killing my father. But her failure has only encouraged her to seek a softer target, me. Outnumbered and outgunned, I might have to ask for help from the one person my mother has always tried to shield me from; my father. Given that he is Oberon, the King of the Winter Court, dad just doesn’t sound right. Ghosts at the Coast is the third action-packed title in the Magical Midlife Crisis series by S. C. Stokes. If you love midlife heroines who are sassy, relatable and fun, you will love this series. Join Nora, her faithful hound, Bran, and this lovable family on their latest adventure today! less

I was just doing a favour for my dad but managed to upset the natural order of the Winter Court. When it comes to protecting my family, there is nothing I won’t do. I’m a mother first, scion second; heaven help the Fae who get that backward, because no one else will. I figured the Winter King would think twice before relying on me for tact and diplomacy in the future. Turns out I was wrong, and nothing in my life has prepared me for hands-on parenting from the Lord of Air and Darkness.
