Description from the publisher:
Ava Harper may be a raiser of the dead and a not-so-famous author, but she isn’t vampire hunter. Not even close.

With the decision made to stay in Shipton Harbor, Ava Harper returns to the home she shared with her deceased husband in Pennsylvania to put it on the market. But saying goodbye to the memories of the home they raised their son in is a lot harder than it had sounded in her head.

In the months she’s been in Shipton, new neighbors moved in across the street from her Philly home. Now, Ava has nothing against vampires. But when people in the neighborhood start turning up with bite marks and Uncle Wade goes missing, she can’t help but to check into the newbies in the hood.

One of the fanged ones isn't happy with Ava poking around and tries to scare her off the case. But he is no match for two necromancers, a tiger-ghoul, and a sheriff/hunter.

And now, as if dealing with how the sheriff makes her knees weak isn’t bad enough, the house she is trying to sell is haunted.

Just another day in Ava’s life at this point.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A HAUNTING MIDLIFE is the seventh book in the Witching After Forty series.  It is best to read them all and in the order of release.
 
“Then I left the bedroom to go finish packing the last-minute items, leaving my old flame and my new flame hanging in a bedroom with my undead uncle.  And Satan.  Just a normal day, really.”  I highlighted this just because it pretty much defined the craziness that is Ava’s life.
 
In a way, Ava is very lucky, she gets one last visit with her dead husband…. Errr… his ghost.  She didn’t mean to trap him in the old house.  Her love for him was just that strong.  Packing up the old house in Philadelphia to make the move to Shipton Cove final and official is a big step for Ava and her gathered flock/family.  Of course even this becomes an adventure.
 
This is a story of closure, love, and great connections to family and friends – new and old.  The emotions are strong and I felt so many parallels to my own wishes (yes, I wish I could talk to my ex).
 
Just when you think it’s over – the house is all packed up – Lucifer delivers a “gift…” that leads to a cliffhanger…. worth it!
 
Note:  While I received this book as a gifted ARC via Booksprout, my opinions are my own and are given freely.
