Another great mystery with our famous witch and her bossy cat. Love these stories.
Some lines are just to funny especially when they include rotton potato salad and missing meat at a certain festival. Well Marzie is having to deal with a ahem man festival her boss visiting and her son’s are in town not to mention hexed chickens and a Grand Poobah and the ever present but so annoying man cave news.

These books are never dull there hilarious and from beginning till the end they will keep you engrossed and counting the day’s till the next Widows Bay Book releases. I was allowed to read and advance copy of this book and this is my honest review.
Boomerang Curse
Wow this book was the same but yet different if you can believe that the intensity level went way up. Sometime a person believes they are doing something for the greater good but it is not until they question themselves that they find a nugget of selfishness also guided their choice.
In this story bad things will happen and the coven will have to make some choices. This book really took me deep into the story and I will say this that I was upset with Marzenna and her attitude. I get but I still did not like her character acting this way and that is what truly made this story work.
Not wanting to give anything a way but if you have been reading this series “DON’T STOP” it is getting even better.
The joy of reading and wanting to share cause me to leave reviews for books that interest me.
It hasn’t happened often lately, but Marzie gets the scoop on forty gallons of rancid potato salad that was meant to be served at the Testicle Festival. Unfortunately, her arch rival gets the scoop on a murder committed at the end of the first day of the Festival. One of the vendors hired by the Benevolent Independent Order of the Buck, is gunned down in the street. Not only is her friend accused of the murder, her boss, the owner of Your U.P. News decides to pay a personal visit, and her 21 year old twin boys show up and announce their plans to spend the summer with her. The DLC has to find a way to throw a big bash for Beltane, which was usurped by the Testicle Festival, to honor the goddess and one of their own.
Laugh out loud funny, magic spells, curses, flying brooms, wands, with plenty of surprises and unexpected twists in the plot. Sometimes snarky, always funny characters working together to make a safe home for the humans and paranormals in the small town of Widow’s Bay. They will learn, too late, that the consequences of cursing someone may cost more than they are willing to pay. This series just keeps getting better, I can’t wait for the next book. Fantastic read!
I am voluntarily leaving an honest and non-incentivized review of this ARC.
This is just a fantastic series.
The widows in Widows Bay are a coven of witches, learning it from the older ladies.
This next part in this series, which you could read as a stand alone, but why would you? is about a murder and Marzie her sons are coming to her.
Things aren’t looking that good in Windows bay with the men taking over and the beltane festival not taking place. This is a bad sign for the witches and even more bad things are happening.
Next to that Marzie her boss shows up and he acts a bit weird from time to time. Her sons show up with a surprise for her and she is surprising them with what is happening in the village.
But above all her best friend is accused of a murder.
How will the witches deal with all this?
For that you have to read the book and you won’t regret it.
It is a book with humor, action and it is about taking care of friends and family
