"Don't speak to her, boy. She's got the devil's blood runnin' through 'er veins."
"It's not the devil. It's magic."
This is not Salem in the olden times. The sleepy little town of Kismet is known for nothing other than being stuck in the past. Girls marry young and boys become men and nothing less. Religion is the heart and soul of Kismet, and the Devil is always seen in places he isn't.
Songbird is more famously known as the Devil's Girl, and locks herself away on the shadowy house on the hill. She is nothing more than a gifted witch, using her magick to create beautiful gardens and bringing rain upon the newly cleaned cars of the neighbors who vandalize her home.
Josiah is in the darkness. As the son of the town's pastor, being gay was a death sentence for him. With his secret buried under the title of varsity football captain and the head cheerleader as his girlfriend, things are looking very bleak.
When he wanders into Songbird's garden on a dare, their private lives may become a little harder to hide.

As such, this is somewhat unedited, and needs improvement. Constructive criticism is both wanted and appreciated. I hope you enjoy reading this book as much as I enjoyed writing it. Cover is mine, made with AutoDesk Sketchbook and BeFunky photo editor. - - - - Content warnings: Kidnapping, Violence, Cursing, Fighting, Torture, Death, mentions of past s*xual assault, and slavery. Please let me know if there's any other warnings that you think should be added! (I swear that makes it sound so much worse than it actually is. This is a lighthearted story about friendship, self discovery, family, and freedom.)Complete
