An irresistible dark fae romantasy debut, inspired by Welsh mythology and perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas, Faebound, Leigh Bardugo and Holly Black’s The Cruel Prince 🍂

Ceridwen Parry has run away with the fairies.

But this is not her story.

For Sabrina Parry, the world is tough, cruel and practical. With her father in prison, her aims in life are:

🍂 Hold onto her job

🍂 Hold her tongue

🍂 Hold on long enough to see her sister Ceridwen maried to a man rich enough to look after her.

Ceridwen is lovely, romantic, timid – everything that Sabrina isn’t. But then Ceridwen vanishes into the eerie woods leaving only an iron ring behind.

Sabrina is drawn into a beautiful but decaying world of fairies and monsters of old. And when an annoyingly handsome fairy prince offers her a dangerous deal, Sabrina is forced to put her own freedom at risk to save her sister.

Lose yourself – and your heart – this Fall to the perfect fantasy romance. A mystical Welsh fairie world awaits you …

Reviews for The Wicked Lies of Habren Faire

'Magic oozes through every page of this unapologetically Welsh fantasy. The heart of Wales beats throughout, expertly weaving Welsh heritage, history and mythology through the story of sisters Sabrina and Ceridwen … Special mention for the Mari Lwyd appearance – I adored it! This story will make you look at the forest differently. Think twice before waving back at that moving leaf. Maybe I don’t want to make friends with the fae after all! Unless he’s Neirin.' – J S Strange, author of Look Up, Handsome
