Nine Heirs and a Spare by Donna McDonald is a paranormal romance series about women discovering they are supernatural muses in midlife. The six books were published between 2021 and 2022, starting with Midlife Muse. Every title plays on the word “muse,” from Muse It or Lose It to ExMuse Me and Not aMused.
McDonald has a knack for wordplay, and this series shows it. The punny titles match the lighthearted tone of the stories, which blend paranormal powers with the real-world challenges of being a woman over forty. Readers who enjoyed her Game of Crones or Tales of a Midlife Witch series will find similar themes here.
