I still remember very clearly how my love story with these books started as it was odd and coincidental. Wicked Lovely is one of my favorite series from when I was young. So I might be talking to me, myself and I in this book review, but at the end of the day, it’s still a way for me to express how I feel about the literature I’m consuming even if no one else is reading this. I originally started this book blog as I had so many thoughts and feelings about the books I was reading and yet no one to share them with. I don’t think many people are aware or have read the Wicked Lovely series by Melissa Marr, but that’s alright. She currently lives with her family in Arizona.Ĭold Iron Heart by Melissa Marr Book Review In addition to novels, Melissa has co-edited several anthologies, as well as published short fiction, manga, and prose non-fiction.

To protect her, Irial must risk a war he can’t win-or surrender the first mortal woman he's loved. Unbeknownst to Tam, she is the prize in a centuries-old fight between Summer Court and Winter Court. Too soon, New Orleans is filling with faeries who are looking for her, and Irial is the only one who can keep her safe. So, Tam doesn’t respond when they trail thorn-crusted fingertips through her hair at the French Market or when the Dark King sings along with her in the bayou.īut when the Dark King, Irial, rescues her, Tam must confront everything she thought she knew about faeries, men, and love. Tam can see through the glamours faeries wear to hide themselves from mortals, but if her secret were revealed, the fey would steal her eyes, her life, or her freedom. Thelma Foy, a jeweler with the Second Sight in iron-bedecked 1890s New Orleans, wasn’t expecting to be caught in a faery conflict.

In this prequel to the international bestselling Wicked Lovely series (over a million copies sold), the Faery Courts collide a century before the mortals in Wicked Lovely are born.
