The Dark One, Blood Magic, and a goddess with a vendetta are all in a day's work for the Backside of Forty. And they pale in comparison to being the single mom of a dragon baby.

The magical world doesn't believe in maternity leave. As soon as my baby arrives the Dark One doubles her efforts to steal enough power to become a goddess. Set on a wild goose chase that leaves too many mundie victims along the way, I haven't had a moment's rest. The secret of paranormals is about to be exposed and the hellmouth is on the verge of collapse. No one is safe in Cottlehill Wilds and it's up to my best friends and me to make sure evil doesn't prevail.

Didn't I mention we're superheroines?

With the man that I love by my side and a new baby to care for, I have more on the line than ever before. This is the fight of our lives, and it will take all of my wit and power to eliminate the threat to our world. Now is the time we show our enemies why messing with our coven is a bad idea.

A Fae forged weapon. Mysterious Murders. And a run-in with my ex-husband and his new wife. Seems as if Fate has it in for me.

When I get a call about the mysterious deaths of two paranormals, I'm pulled back to the last place I ever want to be: the city I fled after my nasty divorce. The magical world depends on me to solve its problems, and this one time, I truly resent it.

Of course, my arrival couldn't go unnoticed, and now I'm facing a lawsuit for alimony while the lives of those I love the most are on the line.

The evil behind Myrna's previous treachery resurfaces, making me question everything. Nothing is as it seems, though. I certainly didn't expect to find myself on a mission to prove my ex-husband's new wife is not a murderer.

Joined by a flamboyant baker, a talented dwarf, and some very fierce pixies, I'm prepared for battle. But I'd be lying if I said I felt confident. Too many important things are now on the chopping block, and for the first time since getting my magic from Hattie, I'm afraid of failing everyone who is relying on me.

Ancient traps, Fae beasts, and a lava chamber are the hurdles I must overcome to reach the dragon equivalent of a maternity ward. No biggie, right?

Solving one crisis after another with my coven left me battered me to a pulp at times, but it prepared me for my most difficult journey yet: returning to Eidothea to save my child's life. Apparently, most beings can't successfully carry a dragon's baby unless they undergo trials and tribulations to reach the lava tunnels in a forbidden mountain in the Fae realm. I know I will make it, because I have a much bigger issue to deal with.

Argies's overprotective brother, who just so happens to be my new king, is insistent on having things his way. Argies and I have barely made it past his discovery of my pregnancy, and now his brother thinks he can force me to stay in his realm. I've outsmarted a controlling ex, mastered the language of manipulation, and I'm one-third of the Backside of Forty. And did I mention I'm about to give birth to a dragon? King or not, he's got to learn that I'm not someone to be messed with.

What happens when six middle-aged sisters with a party planning business buy a cursed plantation? Add one ghoul, the Queen of Voodoo, and a dash of unlocked dormant magic and find out!

When Dani convinces her five sisters to sink everything they have into purchasing a dilapidated old plantation, it seems like a great idea at the time. They need a site to expand their business, and none of them is a stranger to the occasional escapade. Little do they know buying Willowberry Plantation House will be the biggest adventure of their lives.

As New Orleans natives, the sisters aren't at all surprised to find a ghost haunting their new house. What they don't see coming is their discovery that the land was cursed by a wrathful witch centuries earlier. Then things get really strange when Phoebe pays them a visit, unlocking more than just the magic trapped in the earth as she removes the hex that plagued the plantation.

Can their business thrive with a ghoul on the grounds, an angry Voodoo Queen to appease, and a leaky roof to fix? As the sisters scramble to pull off their very first shifter mating ceremony, two things are certain: they won't make it without each other, and they've stumbled upon some incredible new powers they don't yet understand.

Stone demons, giant spider monsters, and a pissed-off goddess have nothing on being pregnant at forty.

I'm a Fae, not a witch, and yet every witchy problem in Cottelhill Wilds still finds me. My best friends and I are just magnets for trouble.

Troublesome vampires, rogue demons, evil Fae royalty, and Tainted witches are just a few of the curiosities we've attracted. And our injuries? Just a few concussions, stab wounds and brushes with poison. It has taken quite an adjustment, but we're finally settling into our roles as the local team of superheroines, and I love it. Belonging to the Backside of Forty gives my life purpose and a meaning I was missing before.

Now we're hot on the trail of the Dark One when a kidnapper whisks us from Violet's bookstore and leaves us in an isolated cave system. It's not ideal, but I'd rather face the monstrous creatures hunting me now than face the love of my life and tell him my little secret.

I may be nearly six months pregnant with a dragonette, but our enemies had better gird themselves because this mama bear is more confident and dangerous than she's ever been, and I won't stop until everyone knows why it's a bad idea to mess with an expectant woman and her baby.

Throwing the perfect party for a siren's birthday is hard enough. Keeping the fussy client happy while trying to stop a killer might be more than the twisted sisters can handle.

When Dahlia is suddenly thrust into the future during a seemingly ordinary meeting, the sisters find themselves at a loss. Lia is haunted by visions of murder, but no one knows who they can turn to for help.

With a persnickety siren demanding an under-the-sea themed birthday party, the sisters could just dive deeper into conch shells, seahorses, and starfish. But when a dead woman is dumped on a busy road, it seems hunting for a killer none of them can identify is now their most important job.

Besieged by zombies, embracing new abilities, and navigating the mounting tension with the Voodoo Queen makes this adventurous new midlife more complicated by the day. The sisters no longer fit in the mundane world, but it seems the magical realm doesn't want them either.

Time to put on their big girl pants and show both worlds what they're made of.
