Midlife in Gretna Green
The first book in the Midlife Recorder series
It’s never too late to learn how to stand up for yourself
Niki McKnight has spent her entire adult life being bullied—first by her husband and then by her boss.
Recently widowed, she’s in dire need of an extreme life makeover. But she never expected it to come in the form of her beloved Gran leaving her a magical estate and a mysterious new job as a Recorder—whatever the hell that is!
She and Tilly, her adorable Bichon Frise, head to Scotland to claim her inheritance with no freaking clue what’s in store for them.
In Gretna Green, they meet a colourful cast of characters, including a sentient house, talking cat, Celtic god, Fae king and a sketchy lawyer.
Can the woman who wouldn’t stand up to her husband and was bullied by her boss find and wield the authority required to keep Vikings, Pict and Fae royalty in line?
With the help of her family’s psychic gift and some magic – she just might!

If you like the midlife paranormal genre, I highly recommend this book. The next one cannot come soon enough for me!
The characters are well thought out and engaging and the storyline is far more interesting and complex than a lot of books of a similar genre.
I was gripped from the first page and couldn’t put it down … gutted when I reached the end
A page turner. Cannot wait for the next instalment.
Fast read with lots of laugh-out-loud moments.
If you want to read about an adult, midlife woman finding her courage and losing her fears, read this book! Totally enjoyable reading … It’s the end of Sept 2022 and I’m breathlessly awaiting book 2.
This is the kind of story that makes you want to take off work early so you can keep reading it.
One of those books I was sad to finish
