What if I said witches were real? Created in the moonlight by a dark god, cursed to never ending life and eternal damnation, with powers that defy imagination, able to conjure the impossible while pulling strength from the elements. And what if I said that these witches lived among us, disguised as normal humans, pretending to live normal lives? Lilliana Cromwell died over three hundred years ago, murdered by an angry village, a group of people fearful of strong women with strange beliefs. But for Lilliana and her coven of sisters, death was only temporary. In their resurrection, these women became something dark and powerful, returning for vengeance against those who imprisoned them, those who sought their destruction. Three centuries later, Lilliana is now known as Lily Wells, respected business owner and neighbor. While in hiding from both the world of humans and the coven that expelled her, Lilliana finds something that absolutely shouldn't be possible: a male witch. To seek an answer to this new found question, Lilliana will venture out into a world that believes her dead, a world more dangerous than she ever remembered it being. And in her quest, Lilliana will encounter a darkness from her past, a darkness that may take away her life, a darkness that will threaten to consume the entire world. Part romance, part thriller, with just a touch of horror, Sticks & Stones is a supernatural novel that will leave you entertained until the last page.
