"A fast-paced, intriguing, richly written puzzle box of a book. Every twist and turn left me breathless. That first paragraph grabbed me and wouldn't let me go." -Aaron Michael Ritchey, award-winning author of The Sages of the Underpass and The Cunning Man series.
"This is a captivating tale about witches and demons and a battle as old as time. It is a story of love, loss, and being captured by purpose. The main character is likable and brave, and her growth as she discovers the truth about her past and her power over the future makes a story well worth reading. I highly recommend Mrs. Levi's 'From a Youth a Fountain Did Flow'" Cheree Alsop, author of the Werewolf Academy series.
Thrust into a timeless battle between an ancient network of witches and the demon underbelly who will stop at nothing to possess her regenerating body, a teenage girl confronts her horrific nightmare of a destiny. Scarlet Singer must decide what is worth fighting for in this life. Love, fate, and a greater destiny are all at stake, especially when one's perception of reality is shaken.
"I'm not dumb. I know magic isn't real, and monsters are like fairytales designed to scare children. Except, I am now swayed to the argument that demons are real and magic seems to exist despite my reservations."
When Scarlet stumbles upon a 19th-century journal, she must face her greatest fears and accept the possibility that she is the Fountain of Youth reincarnated. With secrets she can't hide, Scarlet wonders who she can trust in a world where everyone she knows would see her dead.
Only a Telepath named Marcus and a Magical Void named Zig stand between the demons hunting Scarlet and the battle over her future. If any of them knew the whole truth, her life would be forfeit.
