Midlife Muddle follows a heroine who finds that the second half of life is anything but predictable, especially when the supernatural gets involved. Sam Cheever leans into the comedy here more than in some of her other paranormal series, and the result is a lighter, faster read that works well for anyone wanting something fun without heavy stakes.
The four books span 2022 to 2024, with the “bounce” theme running through all the titles as a recurring motif. The series fits neatly into the broader paranormal women’s fiction boom of the early 2020s while keeping Cheever’s distinctive voice front and center.
