Follow the rules ... Aislinn has had that drilled into her for years by her grandmother. You see, if she doesn't, the humans might lock her up as crazy -- and the faeries might do even worse.

Unfortunately, Ash (as Aislinn prefers to be called) catches the eye of Faery's Summer King, Keenan. He's sought a bride for the past 900 years. Signs are evident that Ash could be the one -- especially when his own mother -- Beira, the Winter Queen -- breaks the rules and starts to interfere.

Wicked Lovely is an interesting read with more than one great twist. I enjoyed the book, but I believe that the second will be much better.

It's always hard to build a world in a first novel particularly in fantasy where there is a blend of the real, fantasy and that surreal element that the combination elicits. My biggest problem is -- I really never got a description of Ash. "Beautiful" from someone else's lips doesn't count. I wanted to see more of her. I also wanted to see more of the places where the stories took place. Just a few words would engage the reader much more.

One very strong plus -- the ending was excellent. Very well done, and I would hope to see a more well-developed second novel.
