Praise for WICKED LOVELY: 'This [is a] magical novel... the first book in a trilogy that will guarantee will have you itching for the next instalment. * * * *'. Bliss "Marr offers readers a fully imagined faery world that runs alongside an everyday world, which even non-fantasy (or faerie) lovers will want to delve into" Publisher's Weekly, starred review "The fantasy of being pursued by two young men is alluring in itself, but when one is a pierced and tattooed sexy outsider and the other is a blindingly beautiful King of Faery, how much better can it get? Readers will beg for a sequel" Washington Post
