A Season of Storm and Ash
(2026)(The second book in the Magical Midlife series)
A novel by Madalyn Rae
Learning you’re a witch at forty-two isn’t exactly the fresh start I had in mind.
After my divorce, I came to the mountains hoping to rebuild my life in peace. Open my little bookstore, reclaim my independence, and maybe, if the universe was feeling generous, fall in love somewhere along the way. Instead, I discovered my entire life had been a lie.
Turns out, I’m an Ashcroft. Descended from one of the oldest and most powerful witch families in Appalachia, a bloodline tangled in mountain lore, ancient magic, and secrets someone would kill to keep buried.
Now my days are spent untangling family mysteries, trying not to accidentally unleash magic I barely understand while occasionally selling a book or two.
When a mysterious researcher arrives in town asking dangerous questions, every instinct I have starts screaming that she’s hiding something. The worst part? Whatever secret brought her to my bookstore is tied to the mountains, and to me.
The deeper I fall into the truth surrounding the Ashcrofts, the more I realize this new life may cost me the very people I’m learning to love.
Genre: Paranormal Romance
