"Am I just angry or having a true midlife crisis?
Life is easier when you’re younger. My new bestie that I never wanted is in crisis. Rasmus left weeks ago and hasn’t returned, so I’m in crisis. I put a demon compulsion on my ex to make him forget he was evil, so my daughter is in crisis.
All Conn seems capable of doing is laughing at me and my pain. We’ll see who gets the last laugh, though. Mulan thinks dating him violates everything in her life and negates the reason she was given her powers.
Not that I would laugh at Conn’s pain—I wouldn’t. Okay, I would, but I’d feel bad about it. Maybe. Men in general aren’t high up on my “things that make me happy” list at the moment."
"Dating's one thing, but what’s love got to do with it?
Nothing. At least not for Ann Lynx. She’s fifty-three for goodness sake. She’s had love. All she’s in the market for these days is some fun companionship—no strings attached. Right? Wrong.
Thanks to her pain-in-the-rear-end best friend, Georgia, she’s now back on the dating scene. Add Georgia’s matchmaking daughter Mariah to the mix and Ann is officially in a world of trouble—or dates—to be more accurate. All that would be kind of doable, but her handyman’s sexy too-young-for-her son is making her feel like a silly young girl.
She should stick to the handsome, successful, and older men that Mariah keeps throwing in her path, but she can’t seem to banish Cal from her thoughts any more than from her broken pantry. The retired military man is very good at fixing things, and at kissing her. Who’s going to fix her when Cal ends up breaking her heart?
What’s love got to do with it? Maybe everything.

"My bad luck with men is a joke in my family.
Can you believe my daughter at twenty thinks I'm the naive one about men? And my mother agrees with her! Conn warning me every three seconds about my stagnant libido doesn’t help either. What difference does it make to them if I'm dating or not?
Turning forty didn’t make me extra picky, but people need to stop judging me for saying no. Colonel Benson is happily married, and I turned down the sexy elf Conn dangled in front of me on principle. I don’t have time to deal with ancient winged creatures, eccentric fairy folk, or back-stabbing demons playing matchmaker.

My formal name is Aran of The Dagda. I rue the day I became Aran Derringer, but soon I'll be changing it back to plain old Aran O'Malley.

Despite what my demon hunter ex-husband and his demon hunter council told the world about me, I am not and never was a criminal. Before I could break myself out of prison, though, the demon hunter council made me a deal I couldn’t refuse. A legit early release is costing me all my pride and a lot more trouble than a jailbreak would have, but I like the idea of not being a magickal fugitive.
I swear to Goddess Danu that to get my magical divorce from Jack, I’ve become desperate enough to do just about anything, even if it means helping his stupid bosses.
