Every year after harvest the weakest are removed from the encampment. None of them are ever seen or heard from again.

Trinity’s only hope of escape lies in the forest. She’s not afraid of the creatures that live there. There’s nothing bigger than foxes in those woods, except this time something is different.

This time she’s hunted from land and sea by predators that should only exist in legends.
Surrounded by three enemies. Surrender is her only option, but which one should she choose?

A captivating dystopian read filled with human-animal hybrids and creatures you’ve never even imagined.

As a phoenix, I’m used to burning hot and rising from the ashes. That’s why I chose to make my living as a world-class thief. Some say it’s dangerous. I call it fun.

Or it is until someone beats me to my latest mark, stealing the prize and killing a fae duke in the process. To add insult to injury, I get blamed for the gruesome murder.

With my freedom on the line, I’ve got three options.

One, confess my failure and spend a few centuries as the caged pet of my sadistic, bloodsucking client. Nope.

Two, take the blame and let the hotter-than-hell grim reaper take me to jail. Also a hard nope, unless he sweetens the deal with an offer to burn up the sheets.

Is it any wonder I choose door number three? I’ve got to find the real killer, steal back the goods, and remind everyone how I got my reputation as the world’s best “acquirer” in the first place.

There’s just one problem. That sexier-than-sin grim reaper I mentioned?

He’s determined to see me go down.

A quintessential soccer mom. A motorcycle-riding wild-child. With two sisters like that, she could have done without provoking the dark fae…

Alys Stevens is running out of familiar road. Approaching midlife, the same age as her mother’s death, and muddling through a messy divorce, the forty-something home renovator has lost the control she so deeply craves. So when her siblings show up demanding a girl’s night full of fun, the three brew up an ancient family cocktail… and accidentally free powerful magic.

Baffled as they all develop uncanny powers, Alys watches on in part-horror, part-glee as a satisfying sinkhole swallows her vexing ex-husband’s car. And poking around in her family’s mysterious tree for answers arouses the unwanted attention of sexy but dangerous werewolves.

Can the new witch refurbish her run-down destiny, or will fate tear her to shreds?

Witch Way After Forty is the charming first book in the Silver Sisters midlife paranormal women’s fiction series. If you like enchanting characters, reverse age-gap romance, and magical surprises, then you’ll love Jennifer L. Hart’s heartwarming adventure.
