Synopsis (Goodreads):
Welcome to Premonition Pointe, where witches take care of their own.

Grace Valentine had the perfect marriage and a great career managing her husband’s real estate office. Or so she thought until three months ago when she was served with divorce papers. Thanks to her philandering ex, not only is she out of a husband, she’s out of a job, too.

At the age of forty-five with the help of her coven, Grace is ready to pick up the pieces and move on. But her only job prospect is at the rival real estate office, and it’s only for a trial run. She’ll need to prove that she can sell the haunted properties of Premonition Pointe before she’s hired permanently.

But who has time to deal with haunted houses when she’s testing out every anti-perspirant on the market to combat her escalating hot flashes, trying not to succumb to the advances of the hot thirty-four-year-old in her office, and ignoring the urges to hex her ex with erectile dysfunction? Okay, maybe she doesn’t ignore the urges. She might be a witch, but she’s only human. Can Grace prove to herself and her new boss she has the magical touch to sell the impossible and find the courage get her groove back… even if her new love interest is a decade younger?
Thoughts on Witching for Grace: I'm guessing that when you live in a town known for supernatural leanings you need to be careful when you screw over your witchy wife. Because sometimes the urge to hex is too powerful to contain and it just slips out unintentionally.

To be fair, Grace doesn't mean to indulge in those hexes and she works on fixing them once she realizes what she's done. Really, given all that's thrown at her, her self-control is pretty awesome overall. I mean, she loses her husband and her job and she has to prove herself at her new job by selling haunted houses.

The lady has a lot on her plate and sometimes mean ideas unconsciously slip out and suddenly people are dealing with things they may or may not have had coming to them.

But this book isn't all about hexes (those are actually a pretty minor plot point, tbh). It's about finding yourself and righting old wrongs and being true to the person you are despite all the excrement flung at you. Also, it's about getting over the idea that an older woman can't score with a younger guy. *thumbs up to that, Grace!*

Ghostly, magical, and sexy. Nice!
