About this listen
A paranormal women's fiction novel for anyone who thought adventure and magic stopped at 40. Guess again, it's just the beginning.
I never expected I'd be one of those people who had a midlife crisis. Sure, I'm over 40 and married, but my kids are grown and moved out. Life is steady, if predictably boring.
That all changes when my husband asks for a divorce and my whole world crashes. Everything I thought I knew, everything I am, gone in an instant. But I am not about to give up. After all, at my age, technically, I'm only halfway there.
I am ready to tackle my do-over; my chance to become the me I've always dreamed of. Starting with moving into my late grandma's cottage and adopting a new kitten.
However, my new life is a little odder than expected. Old books suddenly appearing in my house. Neighbors going missing. A supposed lake monster and a strange man who likes to skulk around with an axe.
I'm going to need to lean on my friends, new and old, to help me navigate my midlife crisis. Together maybe we will find a way to beat the family curse ruining my second chance at life.
Contains mature themes.

Story
"Happily Ever After" wasn't supposed to come with a do-over option. But when my husband of 20 years packs up and heads for greener pastures, and my son heads away to college, that's exactly what my midlife becomes. A do-over. This time, though, I plan to do things differently. Age is just a number, after all, and at 40 I'm ready to carve my own path. Eager for a fresh start, I make a somewhat unorthodox decision and move to a tiny town in the Sierra foothills.

Story
In 1876, we were called to Savannah, Georgia to help with an infestation of demons. If we'd known what we, my wife Evangeline, and I, were walking into, we'd have run the other way. As it was, we shared tea with a vampire and stepped into a battle we did not understand until it was too late.

Story
I knew hot flashes were supposed to be hot, but I didn't expect flames. One day I'm in anger management, normalizing the cordial hate between me and my husband. The next, we're divorced, and he has taken both our house and the business we built together. I'm 40 years old and living above our empty restaurant, plotting my next move. And then the world around starts lighting up - literally catching on fire. I'm starting to think my defining characteristic may not be my snark or my cupcake-baking prowess, but spontaneous combustion.

Four months of wallowing in embarrassed depression should be enough. I’m beginning to realize that no one is who they seem to be, and my life story might be spinning out of my control. It’s time to take a shower, put on a bra, and wear something other than sweatpants. Difficult, but doable.

After finding my soon-to-be ex-husband together with my soon-to-be ex-assistant, I realize his "for better or for worse" didn't include my 40s. An extended vacation on a remote Italian island sounds like the perfect antidote to a midlife crisis - until I arrive. I'm expecting Chianti and pasta. What I get is a run-down bed-and-breakfast with the oldest Nonna in existence. There's something about this island. Something odd. Like how everyone keeps calling me Mamma or how I'm the first tourist in decades.

Samantha Sinclair's midlife can be summed up in one word—trapped. Trapped by Multiple Sclerosis. Trapped by an abusive husband. Trapped until her son breaks the vicious cycle and whisks her away to a bed and breakfast on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. The only problem? It puts her in the path of the only man she ever wanted. Damien rejected her years ago and Sam's never recovered from the heartache. Combined with the quirky and nosy oddballs in the fifty and up waterfront community, the B&B isn't the ideal place to lay low.

My life was going just fine by most standards. I ran a successful business in a tight-knit magical community, and lived just blocks from a beautiful lake and series of hiking trails. Then Selene showed up. According to some magical code I inherit my aunt's ancient familiar; a grumpy ten-pound cat with a broken filter. She fancies herself something of a saber-toothed tiger, and claims to have wrestled the thread of her ninth life from the hands of the Fates themselves—although, I'm pretty sure that last part isn't true. Almost positive.

Midlife magic fun
Either Midway or halfway as you choose to look at it...this is a fun listen. Nicole Poole as always is fabulous. The story is a bit slow at the start but then it gets more interesting. Clearly a series. Lots of mysteries to unwrap. I love that adult children come into the story. Also I’m glad to see a character in the story is LGBTQ friendly. Definitely will read/listen to other books in series.

Naomi was dealt a bad hand but she is just to much of a scatter brain for me.
The main character is a nice person who was dealt a lot of crap-tastic things in her life but instead of building her up, she has let it break her down. Her level of anxiety is too much. Also, I have a issue with the flow of the story. There are too many contradictions. For instance at one point Naomi ask’s what happened to the old mill and a character says that it shut down 10 years ago or so. However, later on in the book Naomi who hasn’t been to the town in 20 years says the last time she was at the mill was right after it shut down. If she was there after it shut down and that was 20 years ago, why would she ask someone what happened and they say 10 years ago it shut down. It is a petty thing but there is more than one of those little quirks in the book. The story isn’t bad, it’s very slow in the beginning and gets a little better but all in all there is no real spunk or suspense and it is hard to relate to Naomi when she is so over the top about everything.

Liked it...but
The ending puzzled the heck out of me. Nearly marked it down for that little weirdness. But I liked 99.99% of the story, so...
I liked the narrator.
Will follow with the next book, no doubt.

A Bit Frustrating
if you are looking for a heroine that finds strength to fight against an evil ass**** of a husband, this is not the story for you. I must admit to being frustrated after a few chapters of nothing but a pity party to outdo all pity parties.
On the plus side I found that Nicole Poole did a really good job. Given the subject matter, she made the story easier to listen to.
All in all, I will consider the next book. If everything continues to be a character who only sees the ugly in everything, maybe not.

I have loved all of Eve Langlais’s books however this one was a little bit of a disappointment. It just seemed to drag on with the same theme. Didn’t seem to have the same action as her other books.

Disappointing ending.
After a big build up of expectation that magic would play a role in this character’s development, nothing happens. Hints at a second book but I feel little curiosity for what might happen next.
