Best friends since kindergarten, Adam and Christy have always been the perpetual outsiders in their small town in Texas. The other kids call Adam gay and Christy a witch.
On both counts the bullies are right.
Their junior year in high school seems destined to be the same old same old until Christy decides to cast a love spell for Adam at the midnight hour. The next day an alluring and mysterious boy enrolls at school and sets hearts a flutter, including Adam’s. Meanwhile, Christy’s mad crush on the handsome football player Ian seems to be going nowhere fast and her witch puberty is making her life miserable.
When a great evil arrives in town that threatens everything they hold dear, the best friends realize that finding a boyfriend is the least of their worries. Soon Adam and Christy will have to battle a force of darkness that has killed in their town before, and will again.

harrowing’ (Fantastic Horror,) while he himself has been heralded as a
writer beyond his years(Bitten by Books.) He currently lives and writes

And now, the cover!
Cool cover and I think it's neat that its YA.
ReplyDeleteI was just telling Jenea that I didn't know she read Frater... I didn't know you did either!! I love her writing and I can't wait for next year when this comes out. Just from the synopsis, I'm so into the story. I really can't wait to see what she does with Kody :D
