Synopsis from Goodreads: Darcie Weatherby has a full plate—a preteen and sixteen-year-old twins, a wayward grandmother, a nightmare boss, and a manipulative ex-husband. The last thing she needs is hot flashes.
Especially ones that start fires.
But like most single mothers, Darcie sucks it up and deals with it, because what else can she do? The kids need to be fed, her grandmother needs supervising, and her demanding boss needs placating.
Burning her boss’s house down was a total accident.
Honest.
It doesn’t take long before Darcie realizes she’s running on borrowed time. Unless she figures out a way to get these hot flashes under control, there’s a very good chance she’ll spontaneously combust at the Founder’s Day Masquerade Ball and leave her children motherless. There’s no way in hell—or Perry’s Fall, Ohio—Darcie will let that happen.
Never underestimate the determination of a mother.
Especially a smokin’ hot one.

New to me Author? Nope. I've read 20+ Denise Grover Swank books.
Why I rated it 5 stars? Huge thank you to the author for allowing me to be part of her review team. All opinions are my own.
WOW! Denise Grover Swank never ceases to amaze me. I'll admit, when I first heard she was starting a book that was going to be "Paranormal Women's Fiction" I was like "No way. That can't be a thing." First of all, I don't normally like magical/paranormal/etc. reads. I like my reads to be realistic and something I can relate to. On that note, I also can't relate to an older woman, because I'm still in my 20s. BUT I WAS SO WRONG.
This book was absolutely fantastic. I'm always in awe of the way Denise (Yeah, I like to pretend we are on a first name basis) writes her characters so realistically so that while they are experiencing these crazy things happening to them, we feel it in our souls as readers. I loved Darcie and I loved how much she cared for her children. The "twist" at the end opens up a whole new avenue and I'm already on the edge of my seat waiting for the next book in the series (I hope it's a series). I NEED to know what happens!
If you haven't read a Denise Grover Swank book yet, you're seriously missing out. She writes stories so beautifully that I love them, even if they aren't my normal genre. I will literally read anything this woman writes. Thank you Denise Grover Swank! Thank you.
