  Things are looking up for the owner of Coffee, Books, and More—Jill's finally getting her MBA, and though her wedding to police detective Greg is postponed a few months, she still has plenty to celebrate. A girls' weekend in Santa Barbara is just the ticket. But back in South Cove, someone else's big day has become a big problem.

  The Psychic Megan Series consists of twenty-four novelettes about a young girl`s growing realisation that she is able to do things that none of her family can. Megan is twelve years old in the first volume. She has two seemingly insurmountable problems. Her mother is frightened of her daughter`s latent abilities and not only will not help her but actively discourages her; and she can’t find a teacher to help her develop her supernatural, psychic powers. For she wants not only to know what it is possible to do and how to do it, but to what end she should put her special abilities. Megan is a good girl, so it would seem obvious that she would tend towards using her powers for good, but it is not always easy to do the right thing even if you know what that is. 
  These stories about Megan will appeal to anyone who has an interest in psychic powers, the supernatural and the paranormal and is between the ages of ten and a hundred years old. 
  In Megan at Carnival, Megan has a strange day with school friends at the fairground on The Island, where some of them, including Jane, her best friend, embarrass themselves. However, another, Sarah, invites her to take part in the local Carnival, which she accepts. 
  Megan has a wonderful time helping to design and create their float, and even gets to become a character on it as it journeys through the centre of town. Megan`s parents are very proud, and Megan gets ideas about a possible future career. 
  However, she learns a valuable lesson, when she sees her parents` reaction to her new-found fame, and Wacinhinsha, her Spirit Guide, gives her some good advice.
