Cursed Confessions
(2025)(The fourth book in the Chronicles of a Cursed Midlife series)
A novel by Kelly Garcia and Barb Hopkins
The race for power ends now—one way or another.
Izzy Doyle knows magic is real—and it’s ruthless. After betrayals, near-death escapes, and the collapse of everything she once trusted, she’s no longer searching for answers. She wants resolution. That means finding Milly—the one person who still holds a piece of her heart, and maybe the only one with the information to stop a war.
But Milly has disappeared into enemy territory, hiding among the Potestas—the darker of two secret magical societies fighting over the Legend of Threes: a trio of ancient artifacts said to grant unimaginable power to whoever unites them.
With Mae and their gnome sidekick George, Izzy follows the trail, uncertain whether Milly is working for the wrong side—or trying to take it down from within.
What they uncover is a daring plan: steal the three most dangerous magical objects in existence and return them to their source—before either faction can seize them. But outsmarting both sides will take more than magic. It will take loyalty, sacrifice, and the courage to risk everything for what’s right.
Will the artifacts end the world—or will Izzy and Mae end the war for good?
