About this listen
Welcome to Hollywood Lakes, where the water is warm, the coffee is hot, and the magic begins at midlife. This semi-cozy paranormal women's fiction series has wit, attitude, and a slow-burn romance.
Shay Atwater is a talent manager in Hollywood with a knack for making dreams come true. But somehow, she's never quite found her own. At 44, she fears she's running out of time—especially in Hollywood where women of a certain age become invisible.
She needs a reset, and settling her grandmother's estate is the perfect opportunity for a getaway to Hollywood Lakes, the idyllic town where she spent summers in childhood. But when her BFF, Avery, shows up begging to use her grandmother's inn as a movie location, what's meant to be a vacation turns into anything but. And when her teenage crush moves back to town, divorced and handsome as ever, she's really in for it.
Exploding lights and ghostly sounds ruin takes until the director threatens to shut down the shoot. Shay must find out what—or who—is wreaking havoc, and she's betting the ancient spell book in the attic will help. If only she can figure out how to open it, she might just find the calling she's been seeking and awaken the witch within.

Story
Life in a small town can be tough. It can be even tougher when you're a witch whose magic regularly backfires. But Summer Thorne only wants one thing: to create the perfect sanctuary for unwanted animals. Nothing and no one is going to stop her. Not even the sexy sheriff who is determined to shut down her rescue center. And certainly not the laboratory where she illegally obtained her mischievous chimpanzee, Morty. Sheriff Cooper Carlyle has one goal: to keep his town safe. That includes his stubborn neighbor, Summer, whether she wants him to or not.

I want to live in Hollywood Lakes, I want to go to Love Baked In to get pastries, and I want stay at the Inn. I want to check out the secret room, walk the woods, and swim in the lake. I want to find out what my special power might be!
This is such a fun and wonderful world, and I love this first story with Shay. I caught things I hadn’t before when reading.
I’m looking forward to more of these stories in audio form. Thank you!
Yay! Was waiting for this!
