Full Synopsis
Birdie Boucher is a woman who lives her life in the shadows of her infamous mother. A powerful voodoo priestess of the south, who uses magic to wreak havoc on the lives of anyone who gets in her way. And any woman she believes is the lover of her philandering husband.

Birdie's mother is more than a danger to others. She proves that she is a danger to her daughter as well, as she snatches her voice one day and places it in a mason jar. Birdie tries to move but is devastated. And when things get worse, Birdie is forced to wield a little magic of her own!

Fast forward ten years later. Birdie is still living with the stigma of her mother's past. She wants love. She wants to marry and have children. But the local men won't touch her despite her undeniable beauty. They are afraid. Because men who date Birdie Boucher turn up dead!

It isn't long before fate intervenes and deals Birdie a sweet blow. Harlem Ryder seems like the answer to any woman's prayers. He sees Birdie and is immediately smitten only to be warned to stay away. He doesn't. And she can't resist. But she has secrets. He has secrets. And something lurks in the shadows. What will become of Birdie Boucher?
