Life is hard, but it’s so much sweeter when you surround yourself with people who get it. (Whatever it may be.)
Because, let’s be honest, sometimes you just need a really good friend who’s been where you are and can promise that what’s waiting for you on the other side is pure magic.
Welcome to Portney.
It’s cozy, witchy, and overflowing with fictional women who are real in every way that matters. Whatever life is throwing at you, they’ve been there and they can’t wait to show you that the best is yet to come.
🪄 🪄 🪄
If you love witty banter, great friends, found family, being truly seen, and you like cozy, heartwarming stories about women who find their true power, their people, and where they belong then you’ve in the right place.
Welcome. We’re thrilled you made it.
Almost everything I’ve ever written can be found in eBook (including Kindle Unlimited), paperback, Large Print, and Audio, on Amazon, my webstore, and everywhere paperbacks and audiobooks are sold online.
✨ Happy reading! ✨
The Witches of Portney Stories
The Portney stories start with the Baking Up a Magical Midlife series. Each book featuring Cassie Berry’s discovery and embracing of magic can be read as a stand-alone, but the timeline flows in order of publication.
The story continues with the Wyrd Words & Witchcraft series which follows Juliette Matthews, Cassie’s cousin, as a new magical power forces her to come to grips with her anxiety and panic disorder.
Can’t get enough of Portney? I can’t blame you. I can’t seem to stop writing stories set in the quaint little beach town filled with quirky, endearing witches! The story continues with the Midlife Magic on the Menu series, the story of a newcomer to Portney who, after receiving a nasty knock to the head during an unlikely accident suddenly finds herself able to hear people’s thoughts. Juliette, Cassie and the rest of the Brewhahas rally to welcome her into their world and teach her a thing or two about the magic of discovering where you truly belong.
Coming soon (October 20, 2026!) to a bookstore near you: The Little Shop of Gentle Magics: Book 1 of The Enchanted Thistle series.
