Overview

Meet Lola Garnett, a bored housewife, mom and office drone who wakes up with unexpected psychic abilities, and no instruction manual, and Twink, the reluctant, sarcastic fairy assigned to assist and educate her.

In this first book in a series, middle-aged Lola has resigned herself to an unsatisfying life of servitude as a wife, mother and office drone. The American Dream she's living feels more like a coma, and she secretly longs for a more meaningful life. In a perfect demonstration of "be careful what you wish for…" she gets her wish when she wakes up from a nap one day with extrasensory abilities and powers.

The adventure really kicks into gear once she learns that her condition is the result of a botched spell coming from across the street, where her wanna-be-witch neighbor, Melinda Underwood, is foolishly playing with powers she doesn't understand. Lola’s untrained intuition tells her that Melinda intends to use her equal, yet opposite, powers for evil against innocent people.

With the help of a tiny, sarcastic, ethereal sidekick, can Lola overcome her helpless resignation to overthrow Melinda's evil plot and, while she's at it, find her own self worth?

About the Author

Lisa Bonnice was born back in the 60s and probably would have been a hippie at Haight Ashbury if she was just a few years older. For seven years, from the mid-1980s to the early 90s, she dragged her girls out on the road with her as she told jokes in comedy clubs all over the US, opening for such acts as Tim Allen, Steve Harvey and Jeff Foxworthy.

During her sojourns as a wandering yukster, her eyes were opened to the great big world out there. While wandering through a bookstore in Madison, Wisconsin she discovered the “New Thought” section of the store and has been hooked ever since.

Lisa worked as an editor for Future Medicine Publishers, on their encyclopedia, Alternative Medicine—the Definitive Guide and then at NBC33-WKJG, as their MSNBC affiliate writer/producer. During her five years there, she won two Excellence awards from MSNBC.com. It was during this time that Lisa wrote her first book, originally title Addressing the Goo—the metaphysics of weight loss. She lost 50 pounds while figuring out ‘Exactly what are the metaphysics of weight loss?’

Meantime, she became the Florida State Coordinator for Neale Donald Walsch’s organization Humanity’s Team. She synchronistically met Walsch during a conference, as he was picking up a copy of Addressing the Goo that a friend had left on a table. He loved her book but hated what it was called. He told her that he would write a foreword if she wrote a new edition, but she really should change that title. As a result, Shape Shifting—reclaiming YOUR perfect body was born.

The Shape Shifters Daily Diary soon followed, and Lisa began hosting Shape Shifting with Lisa Bonnice on BlogTalkRadio. She featured guests like Neale Donald Walsch and moon-walking Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell. Her first novel, Be Careful What You Witch For! was written about a bored housewife who wakes up one day with psychic abilities and a sarcastic fairy sidekick.

During this time, her friend Stacey Kananen was enduring the most horrible real-life storyline you can imagine. Stacey’s mother had been murdered, and she was falsely accused and arrested. Lisa attended Stacey’s murder trial and, after it ended in a not guilty verdict, she and Stacey wrote a book entitled Fear of Our Father (Berkley Books, June 2013).

Lisa is currently working on her second novel, a sequel to Be Careful What You Witch For!
