House Party in Gretna Green

THIS NOVELLA IS INTENDED TO BE READ AFTER BOOK 3 OF THE MIDLIFE RECORDER SERIES. After completing all the bondings in Ties that Bond, Niki finds herself with a few days respite before her departure for the Red Celt realm to stay with Prince Dai. But her plans take an unexpected turn when she discovers that Dola's 1400th birthday is just around the corner—this Sunday, to be exact. Niki is determined to make the celebration special. Yet, orchestrating festivities for Dola—a sentient house with spying Dolinas scattered throughout the realms—without giving away the secret proves to be quite the challenge. To navigate this delicate situation, Niki calls upon her Knight Adjutants and a mix of old and new friends to help distract Dola and gather gifts. This feel-good novella celebrates the joy of connection and community. Sadly, it doesn't feature a single doughnut ... but there is cake. Join the party at Gateway Cottage - where the real surprise is the power of true belonging.
