About this ebook
fun new series about a young woman fighting to overcome her own personal demons and the forces of darkness.
Emme Vaughn has walked away from her home and the love of her life, all so she can snatch her mother from the clutches of evil. When she arrives at the mental hospital her mother has languished in, she’s astounded to find her mother isn’t there. She’s given an important key to her past and future and now must begin a new search.
Adding to Emme’s never ending challenges is an ancient devil that has stepped up its game, inexplicably attacking Emme with more force than ever and the fact that she’s ducking her sweetheart, Francis. Francis, led by his spiritual intuition—and MapQuest directions she left on his computer screen—is hot on her trail. Can a girl get a break?
Exorsistah has a job to do. She has no idea what she’s up against but she has to save her loved ones. Assembling her own rag-tag band of believers that include friends and a couple of Archangels to go up against the devil’s kingdom is just the beginning. Emme is out to defeat one of history’s most destructive forces, and learn that one of the most powerful forces known to man—love—really does win in the end.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5The title alone is two stars and it really is not bad for a series geared toward African American Christian teens. The plot is as follows: Emme is a teen runaway nearing her 18th B-day and she can see demons, she runs into a guy she falls in love named Frankie, who wants to be a priest, and he lives with Father Rivera and Mother Nicole; they fight demons through exorcisms. Kind of like Buffy, just instead of actually fighting demons with karate chops, they say the Lords Prayer and such. A lot of the problem with the book (besides the tragically trying too hard to be all that type dialog) is getting bogged down with plot movement. Burney spends 15 pages just on trying to find a way for Emme to go with Frankie to see Mother Nicole when they meet for the first time. They talk and talk and talk in circles in a lot of parts, not sure if that is supposed to convey hesitation or apprehension or exposition of character, but it really just holds the story up. Still, over all and for the geared audience, this one should be a winner and the dialog IS funny, (I found myself cracking up) which I don't think it is necessarily supposed to do. Here's a quote: "Lord," I silently prayed, "Can you help me stay feminine-looking? A cute brotha is standing right here, and a sistah still needs to look good, even if she is battling the power of Satan." Amen. Now it was time time to kick butt.-- uh huh, stuff like that....First in the series.
