About this listen
Darcie Weatherby has a full plate - a preteen and sixteen-year-old twins, a wayward grandmother, a nightmare boss, and a manipulative ex-husband. The last thing she needs are hot flashes.
Especially ones that start fires.
But like most single mothers, Darcie sucks it up and deals with it, because what else can she do? The kids need to be fed, her grandmother needs supervising, and her demanding boss needs placating.
Burning her boss’s house down was a total accident.
Honest.
It doesn’t take long before Darcie realizes she’s running on borrowed time. Unless she figures out a way to get these hot flashes under control, there’s a very good chance she’ll spontaneously combust at the Founder’s Day Masquerade Ball and leave her children motherless. There’s no way in hell - or Perry’s Fall, Ohio - Darcie will let that happen.
Never underestimate the determination of a mother.
Especially a smokin’ hot one.

"Happily Ever After" wasn't supposed to come with a do-over option. But when my husband of 20 years packs up and heads for greener pastures, and my son heads away to college, that's exactly what my midlife becomes. A do-over. This time, though, I plan to do things differently. Age is just a number, after all, and at 40 I'm ready to carve my own path. Eager for a fresh start, I make a somewhat unorthodox decision and move to a tiny town in the Sierra foothills.

Sparrow “Ro” Meadowcroft is about to get the promotion she’s always dreamed of–curator of the museum where she works. She loves old things and the history that surrounds them, so when a patron leaves some items to the museum, Ro is eager to dig in. The sword in the stone that comes with those items is clearly a joke. A well-made but obvious replica meant to be a conversation starter. Why anyone would think that belonged in the museum is beyond her, but she can’t resist taking a crack at it and finding out if she’s the chosen one. And as it turns out...she is.

I didn’t want to like this story, but....
I didn’t want to like this story, but.... I throughly did. It had everything I look forward to in a cozy storyline, mystery, suspense, and a little romance. Denise Grover Swank crafted a great paranormal book/audiobook. Melissa Moran did more than just gave a great performance, she became a part of it. If you enjoy paranormal mysteries you won’t want to miss this one.

ABSOLUTELY WORTH THE LISTEN!
I thoroughly enjoyed this book from beginning to end. I always looked forward to the moments when I would be able to listen to the book. I enjoyed the family dynamics, the character buildups and the interactions. The ending was a bit of a surprise and I can't wait to listen to Book 2. The only reason the performance was rated a little low was the narrator's pronunciation of several names. She had trouble between Heath and Pete and I was confused several times as to who was doing and saying what. Overall, great listen and I highly recommend.

A good beginning
A good beginning. This story had a slow building start. what was/is happening to Darcy took the whole book for us to find out the answer. while that's not bad, it could mean an Epic series build. I enjoy Darcy, Cyn, Nana, and Harriet. I am NOT a fan of Heath Stone, FBI agent. to me he's an arrogant pig. Assuming Darcy and he are friends and she barely knows him. NOT a Fan!!! He's an asshole in my opinion.
