40 Ways to Tell a Lie

Am I really angry, or is this just a midlife crisis?



Life is easier when you’re younger. Mulan, the new bestie I never wanted, is in crisis. Rasmus left weeks ago and hasn’t returned, so I’m in crisis. I put a demon compulsion on my ex to make him forget he was evil, so my daughter is in crisis. 


All Conn seems capable of doing is laughing at me and my pain. We’ll see who gets the last laugh, though. Mulan thinks that dating him would violate everything in her life and negate the reason she was given her powers. 


Not that I would laugh at Conn’s pain—I wouldn’t. Okay, well, I would, but I’d feel bad about it. Maybe. Men in general aren’t high up on my “things that make me happy” list at the moment, and I confess my attitude isn’t quite fair to my normally very helpful familiar.



40 Ways to Tell a Lie is an exciting paranormal women's fiction tale from USA Today Bestselling Author Donna McDonald.
