An enchanting romantasy debut about a girl who must strike a dangerous bargain with a fae prince in order to find her missing sister, perfect for fans of Margaret Rogerson and Lexi Ryan

For Sabrina Parry, the world of her small, Welsh mining town is cruel and practical. Her main aims in life are to hold onto her job, hold her tongue, and marry off her pretty, but sickly sister Ceridwen to a man rich enough to look after her.

When Ceridwen vanishes into the woods leaving only an iron ring behind, it’s up to Sabrina to find her by venturing into Eu Gwald—fairyland.

Sabrina quickly realizes fairyland is far more dangerous than she ever expected. So when a fae prince who considers himself a scholar of all things human offers her a dangerous deal, Sabrina is forced to accept. The prince is charming, and more interested in Sabrina than she is willing to believe. But as always with fairy bargains, there is a cost.

And if this bargain doesn’t cost Sabrina her life, it will certainly cost her heart.

From NOVL Nation

“The Wicked Lies of Habren Faire had some of the same vibes as The Cruel Prince, and I am not mad about it. It gave us a vicious human girl willing to do anything to rescue her sister, a careless and cruel fae wanting to take advantage of her, a lethal bargain full of tricks and deceit … The slow-burn tension was so good, and the ending was perfect. I absolutely loved this one!”

–Shani, @shanisshelves

“The Wicked Lies of Habren Faire is a wickedly fun, fast-paced story with lush prose and an atmospheric world rooted in Welsh folklore and history… It’s easy to binge and will leave you wanting more.”

–Jenny, @jennyreadsalot4

“If The Cruel Prince had a shorter and more fast-paced sister, this would be it. I loved the play on names, her wittiness with her ring, and romantic elements. I’d love to read more from this author!”

–Spiri, @pluvioreads

“Morally gray MCs, banter, missing sisters, and a journey of self exploration all make up this gorgeous tale, and if you’re looking for a fun standalone for the upcoming season, I would definitely check this out.”

–Briana, Briana’s Book Nook

“This felt like a dark fairytale come to life as you make a deal with a fae prince while getting lost in a faerie filled forest. The Wicked Lies of Habren Faire was a beautifully written YA fantasy with Welsh mythology woven into its pages that will have you immersed into a magical, yet wicked world… It was wicked and fun and the atmosphere felt like a third character who leaps off the pages and drags you into its depths.”

–Vanessa, @bookishrkive

“As a big fan of The Folk of the Air series, I ate this story up! It’s completely unique, but some of the vibes are similar… I really enjoyed Sabrina’s journey of self discovery and the banter between her and the trickster fairy prince. The ending was PERFECT and a beautiful way to wrap up the story.”
