Description from the publisher:
No one ever told me what to do if I ended up forty-something, divorced, and jobless.

When my ex knocks at my door with his new girlfriend I somehow manage to turn them into toads. But that’s not possible, right?

Still, my ex-husband’s car is in the driveway, and he’s nowhere to be found. Which doesn’t look great for me.

So I do the only rational thing I can think of… I run for it, straight back to the small town I grew up in. Mystic Hollow is exactly the way I remember it, except now it seems that everything I thought was normal and boring is supernatural. Even my group of childhood friends appear to be magical in unexpected ways.

And the hot guy I had a schoolgirl crush on? Apparently, he’s an alpha shifter who digs me.

Moving back home might be the fun I’ve been missing.

That is until my brother disappears. Now, it’s up to me to find him, even if I have to take on vampires, shifters, sirens, and a whole lot of crazy to do it.

I know that so long as I have my friends backing me, I’ll find him because no one wants to be on karma’s bad side...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
KARMA'S SPELL is the first book in the Magical Midlife in Mystic Hollow series.  This cozy mystery series will need to be read in the order of release.
 
How many times have I muttered, “Karma will get you.”  Now imagine if I could be karma instead.  Would that be a good thing?  Probably not.  Not a good idea for any of us to be karma, right?  Especially right after a cheating husband decides to wipe out our lives – job, home, and even family heirlooms.  On the other hand, I wouldn’t mind being karma when I see someone doing a good deed and meting out some kindness, too.
 
Emma’s friends grew up knowing they were witches and other supernaturals.  She isn’t clued into this world until she suddenly turns her toad of an ex and his floozy into toads.  She didn’t know she could do that!  When she panics and returns to her hometown, her old high school girlfriends are there to catch her, support her, and help her navigate her new reality.  Throw in a hot shifter sheriff just to spice it all up and life is looking up for Emma.
 
This story is fun with plenty of laughter.  I loved following Emma and her friends as they put on their detective caps to follow the clues and used their witchy powers to save the day.  This is a great read.  A great first book in a new series and I’m looking forward to more in Mystic Hollow.
 
Note:  While I received this book as a gifted ARC via BookSprout, my opinions are my own and are given freely.
