Despite being the fifth novel in the Mystic Inn series, Stephanie Damore’s Midnight at the Mystic Inn didn’t prevent me from enjoying the holiday festivities and the mystery in Silverlake.

It's New Year's Eve, and Angelica is ready to welcome the New Year.
But when the clock strikes twelve and a curse is unleashed, old acquaintances will be anything but forgotten.
Who has it out for Silverlake?
Or maybe the magical town isn't the target.
Because when the snow settles, two women are left frozen at the center of it all—the town's persnickety mayor and an up-and-coming WNN news anchor. Both women's personalities aren't going to make this an easy case.
Regardless, it'll take more than a bewitched blizzard to keep Angelica and her friends from tracking the clues. There isn't a minute to spare. If they don't catch the culprit, two women remain frozen forever.
I was intrigued by the synopsis of Midnight at the Mystic Inn and settled in to listen to this cozy paranormal mystery set in the idyllic town of Silverlake. The story centers around New Year’s Eve when a curse is unleashed that leaves two women frozen.
The tale that unfolds pulled me in as Angie, the heroine who apparently has solved some previous cases, tries to uncover the culprit. The police, well one of them would love to pin this on Angie, and something is wrong in one of the rooms at the Inn.
Besides an intriguing case and fascinating heroine, we see some advancement in her romance with Vance. While I didn’t listen to the previous books, the author did a lovely job of bringing me up to speed. I loved Angie’s friends and family who come to her aid.
A little magic, small-town antics, and plenty of suspects kept me entertained. I hope to go back and listen to the previous novels in the series. Aimee Reid did a lovely job of narrating the story and giving voice to the characters.
If you enjoy paranormal cozy mysteries, you’ll want to visit the Mystic Inn series.
