Story
Stormy “Breeze” Morgan was living the high life until her dreams came crashing down around her and she lost her book contract. With nothing left to do—and no money in her bank account—she’s forced to return to the family business, a diner in Northern Lower Michigan. Stormy never thought she would have to work with her family again, and it’s just as horrific as she expected. Things only get worse when, after a night of drinking with her cousin, a family Ouija board leads to a burst of magic and Stormy wakes floating over her bed the next morning.

Story
"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.

Jolene Hartgrave, here! I went from being a top dog lawyer to a hangdog pet psychic in the ruff part of town, all thanks to a pesky curse that gave me the gift of gabbing with animals. But my luck is finally looking up. I’ve teamed up with a hottie police officer and his snarky, lie-sniffing German shepherd to catch criminals. From a murdered fashion icon spinning a web of lies to the killed curator of an occult museum, I’m doggedly helping the police bring the bad guys to justice.

Interesting
Interesting theme. A P.A. that knits and apparently that's her true calling, a talking one-eyed, cheeky cat and a P.I./newby witch who is the main character.
Add all these to the mix and stir well ... Now you have a sweet murder/mystery/witchy story. Quite entertaining.

This is one of those books that is okay, not great but not terrible. I think the biggest downfall was trying to fit so much "back-story" into the first book that it didn't hone in on one main plot. There were just too many things going on at once. I didn't know if the focus was her becoming a witch, solving the murders or where the "love story" fell in.

The story was interesting but it was also overly complicated. The author was trying way to hard to build a world and it didn't come about naturally. I also felt that the narration was slightly forced.

Amusing Snarkfest
Jill Gooder is one of the many “I didn’t know I was a witch or that magic was real!” Protagonists in the cozy-paranormal-mystery genre. There are almost 50 of this series published, which makes one wonder whether they are written by a group or a machine …
Jill has the maturity of a 14 year old girl … and allows herself to be under the thumb of her adoptive sister, her inherited office secretary, her one-eyed cat Winky and others in her orbit. She suffers badly from undiagnosed OCD - she loves custard crème cookies, for example, but won’t eat them if they have been stored in a tin with other varieties.
The world build magic is interesting - spells are learned by memorizing a series of images, each spell has limitations, e.g. size of target, length of time it is active, how soon it can be repeated. There are levels of witches and higher level witches can, of course, do stronger, more lasting spells.
What saves this book, for me, is Winky the cat. He is *not* a Good Cat. He has creative ways of dominating Jill and creative ways to punish her. He out snarks everybody else in the book. He is just … refreshing.
