Devilish and Deadly

Beschreibung

a sexy and scintillating modern fantasy where witches get even Set in a modern-day Ohio city, Devilish and Deadly centers around a diverse coven introduced to the reader through Evie, a second-generation Iranian-American, bisexual witch. Evie and her sister witches use their powers to mark targets who have victimized women and eluded justice in the broken legal system of the United States. They recalibrate the balance through what some might call murder. But, Evie and her friends prefer to think they are carrying out cosmic justice. As the coven plots their most ambitious takedown yet against the sleazy President of the United States, they realize that this mission requires something more than their usual modus operandi for killing dirt-bags. Evie must travel to the underground-magic world in Iran to find the ingredients for the dangerous spell they are planning. Meanwhile, she is torn between her infatuation with Vito, a mysterious man she meets at a bar, and her undying desire for more than friendship with Kitty, the enigmatic leader of the coven. Tensions mount as confidences are broken, and Evie's relationships begin to crumble. What is Vito hiding when he sneaks off to take heated phone calls? Why does Kitty keep dangling love in front of Evie just to go off on a fling with some good-looking guy she barely knows right afterwards? And, will the coven survive murky questions of right and wrong, shifting alliances, and its most dangerous spell-casting to kill the President?

Autor

Ayla Atash is the author of the moving memoir, Ayla on Fire, chronicling her struggles with mental illness, and the sexy urban-fantasy vigilante novel, Devilish and Deadly. Ayla has a B.A. in English from The Ohio State University and a Juris Doctorate from Cornell Law School. She writes under a nom de plume to allow herself to throw off the constraints of her professional self and actualize the more authentic writer within. That professional self practices immigration law and has a passion for defending the under-dog. She lives with her opinionated toddler and stubborn senior pup in a sleepy Northeast-Ohio suburb. Ayla is a second-generation Iranian-American, pansexual, vegan, atheist, feminist and self-identified witch. Her personal identity-as messy and contradictory as it may seem-informs her perspective as an author. Ayla's writing subverts traditional genre delineations by centering the unwell, outsider, queer, and nonconforming viewpoints that predominate her work.
