Dodging the Magical Curse: Paranormal Women's Fiction (Midlife Witchery Book 17) Kindle Edition
When a desperate friend shows up at Pymm's Pondside with a deadly hex and a plea for help, the Backside of Forty embark on a quest that takes them from cozy tea shops to the shadowy halls of the Protectorate Guild.
As Fiona, Aislinn, and Violet navigate the perils of the magical realm and the challenges of menopause, they seek the guidance of a gargoyle in their quest for the elusive cure.
But this journey isn't all wand-waving and potion-brewing; it's a wild ride across England, uncovering secrets that make their cauldrons bubble with more than just magic.
Will they gather the rare ingredients, outwit the witch behind the curse, and save their friend before the Crimson Moon claims its final victim? Find out in this spellbinding tale where midlife becomes a magical adventure, and the real magic lies in the power of friendship – and maybe a well-timed hot flash or two. Join the Backside of Forty coven, where midlife crises come with a side of witchy mysteries and a snarky comment for every spell.

- Reviewed in the United States on April 6, 2024You never know what will happen with the back side of forty. This adventures continues with twist and turns. The friendship is great. I live how the guys back them up. I wish the next book was out sooner.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 5, 2024The Backside of Forty ladies are enlisted to save a witch from a cruel curse. As a gargoyle protector watches over their comatose friend, the ladies seek the one who cast the curse. A life for a life is the only way to bring Starla back from the brink and the clock is ticking. Another wild adventure across the pond, with the BOF three contending with a scorned witch and her crew of Tainted minions. I admire Ms. Trim's ability to continue bringing readers a unique magical experience with each of her tales.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

- Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2024This is another great book in the Midlife Witchery series by Brenda Trim. I can't wait to read the next book.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 2, 2024The prim side community is always dealing with something, and this time the risk is dire. The way everyone seeks to contribute is refreshing in these times. I love the different types of beings and the new ones popping up. I also love the way the characters cross over to help with their knowledge or encouragement. The child in the mix is very well handled as well. I can't wait for the next one from this Author!!
- Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2024Another riveting story with the Backside of Forty. These heroes need a break! Doesn’t sound like it will be anytime soon. Always a great read
- Reviewed in the United States on April 5, 2024The BoF never gets a break. They just finished wrangling the Auric Blaze when a woman shows up in Fiona's driveway begging for help. Someone has cursed Starla with the nasty Curse of the Crimson Moon and none of them have a clue what to do to save her. It's going to take visit to the Protectorate Guild to find a gargoyle guardian to stabilize Starla and some detective work to find out exactly who cursed her in order to save her. Meanwhile, the three friends are under constant attack from Tainted witches. What's that all about? Will they be able to break the curse before someone breaks them?
I was given an advanced copy of this book by the author. My review is voluntary.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant Series
Dodging the Magical Curse: Paranormal Women’s Fiction (Midlife Witchery Book 16) by Brenda Trim. Having just sorted the shields around Pymms Pondside a witch comes up the drive obviously very sick. It takes the combined efforts of all the family to find a way to help Starla.
