Regrettably, I am About to Cause Trouble

By: Amie McNee

Narrated by: Amie McNee

1535, Oxfordshire.

Lady Maude Shaftsberry has it all sorted. She will marry the well-connected lord, ascend the ranks of the Tudor court, and be mother to a small battalion of boys. But Maude has a secret that she carries everywhere: a birthmark that stretches over her stomach and between her legs. Is it a mark of fertility? Did her mother rub her pregnant belly too vigorously on the full moon? Or is it the sign of a witch?

Her new husband is certain it's the latter. Maude, faced with annulment and the nunnery, must make her own way.

The witches in town are the only ones who will give her refuge, but staying in the apothecary comes at a price. She must help and assist the witches. Surrounded by potions, star charts, and a fairy who appears to be a very large and handsome man who helps around the house, Maude begins to realize there is a strange and seductive power in being outcast.

Regrettably, I am About to Cause Trouble is a tale about being ostracised, and finding our power and family in unusual places.

Fun and engaging

What’s great listen! Maude is a relatable and lovable character. I will look for more books from this author.

Perfect!!

I rarely give 5 stars but this was such a delight. The humor is effortless and constant, the story completely compelling, and the delivery is spot on. I was equally cackling and riveted, and am only sad that there’s not more for me to read. I’d follow Maud and her family for an endless series. So, so well done. A perfect balance of lighthearted and tender, with genuinely compelling character development. More please!!

OMG

Every single book this woman writes is my life. (Not the physical parts but the thoughts) This is honestly one of the best books I have ever read.

Loved it!!

Super fun and loved the back drop of King Henry's court. is there another? I really am wandering what happens next!!

I love these characters and what to spend more time with them

Great listen. Love her voice both in the writing and the telling of the story. I hope she writes another with these characters.
