Midlife is the Cat's Meow (My So-Called Hexed Midlife Book 1)

by Miranda MacLeod

“Look, Nora, I—” “I’ve gotta go, Tallie. We’re short staffed at the clinic, and there’s some big shot law enforcement type coming from the mainland to ask a bunch of questions about the local handling of all this Alex Tate stuff.” “Okay.” I swallowed as Nora hopped on her bike and fired up the engine, my chest hollow, as if my heart had given up and moved on to greener pastures. Like Antarctica, probably. I had no idea what I would’ve said if she’d let me have a chance to finish talking. What was there to say? I was just out of a bad marriage, not even legally divorced yet, not to mention a single mom with two kids and no career prospects aside from helping run a tiny inn. On top of all of that was the simple fact I’d never given even one thought all my life to having romantic feelings for a woman. At least, not until I’d met Nora. Which, really, who could blame me? If there was going to be one woman on the planet who could give me second thoughts about sticking with my hetero lifestyle, why wouldn’t it be a tall, dark-haired beauty who wore leather like a rock star, but also saved lives because she was a friggin’ doctor. And charming, and funny, too. And the way she looked at me, like I was the most interesting person in the room, the only woman in the world… Well, I mean, damn.
