Description from the publisher:
Ceridwen Gault—mage whose life has turned upside down.

Her powers now so overused she can’t access them, Ceri finds out the identity of the father of her son from a powerful ally. That's helpful, since she never knew his name or appearance. But now she has to deal with rapid-fire attacks on herself and her family while trying to maintain a façade of normalcy and retain her job.

As it all comes to a decisive fight, she discovers that with the help of her almost-boyfriend, Nick, she's able to free Goblins from their enslavement without draining her powers again.

Things just keep getting crazier and crazier for Ceri. She's hanging on for the ride at this point, hoping to salvage her sanity. And maybe get to know Nick a little better. **wink**
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

UNBOWED is the third book in the Midlife Mage series.  This is a continuing series following the life of Ceri Gault.
 
Ceri is living the insanity of life.  Some days it seems a person just can’t get a break… Ceri has too many of those days in a row!  Now she’s living the crazy in two worlds!  Double the time, double the friends, double the trouble.
 
I’m here for the love and Nick is giving it all to Ceri long before they say the words.
 
There is great adventure, suspense, and just enough romance to make all the trouble worth the aggravation.  I love these characters.  I love this world.  There is a doozy of a cliff-hanger and I am sitting on pins and needles waiting for the next book and what will happen next.

Description from the publisher:
When TIME takes everything Rowena Hembree loves, she calls on friends old and new to take it back.

Raising a teenage daughter by herself and trying to rescue her handler is a lot for one witch, especially one grieving the loss of the love of her life, but Rowena Hembree is determined to undo the wrong from her past that has led to a domino effect of changes to her future.

Nothing is easy and thanks to the TIME agency trying to smooth ripples in the fabric of time, Rowena can’t go back and undo the past.

Boy, has she tried. But maybe she can fix it through the present. She calls in old favors and brings together a wayward band of witches to help her hunt down her half-sister and infamous jewel thief, Fiona, who is trying to steal Ro’s life to repave her own legacy.

Twists and turns accompany Ro on her journey, and she wouldn't make it without her best familiar, Fred.

Rowena Hembree has been to Hell and back in time. At this point, she can do anything. Including… no, can’t tell you that. Spoilers!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

NICK OF TIME is the fifth book in the Prime Time of Life series.  For maximum enjoyment and understanding, read them all and in the order of release
 
There is a lot going on in this book. Their tying up loose ends, but I hope this isn’t THE end.  There is plenty of room for more shenanigans.
 
Life is full of surprises.  This book looks at some of the ones we all go through.  The frenemy who is it turns out is more friend than enemy – was it all a misunderstanding or just something you need to get past?  Hope is a balm to the soul and an instigator towards greatness.  Family is more than the people related to you by blood.  Love is the greatest of all.
 
I loved this story and I sincerely hope that we will return to this world again.
