Synopsis

Fall head over broomstick in love with this swoon-worthy, witchy romantic fantasy sequel, perfect for fans of Twin Crowns, Divine Rivals and Stephanie Garber.

For the Kingdom. For the magic. And for love . . .

Aurelia Wycherley has found someone to tether her magic to – her enigmatic former enemy, Jules Nightly. Now, they are heading off to coven college to learn advanced magic. But they are also on a secret mission: to discover the Lost Quarter of the college, create their own coven of twelve and try to discover a way to bring back the Old Magic. 

When malevolent magic interrupts their first night at college, Aurelia and Jules discover that Jonathan and his coven of untethered witches has escaped and now they are after her magic, curse and all… 

Can they save the magic and the world - or will Aurelia lose her magic for good?

Prepare for balls, late-night study groups, hidden mysteries, a heist, the return of old foes, and a lot more kissing!
 

Praise for The Wycherleys

‘From the first perfect line, The Wycherleys had me hooked. It’s the perfect swoon-worthy fantasy-romance featuring everything I love: wonderfully drawn characters to fall and root for, an alternate history with ballgowns and broomsticks, curses, magic with a clever twist, and a world I’d love to visit.’ Dominique Valente, author of the Starfell series

'A fun, tense, enemies-to-lovers romance with magic and plenty of secrets. Nothing is as it seems. It had me gripped from the first page.' Zeena Gosrani, author of This Dark Heart
'I am utterly captivated by this addictive and swoony fantasy romance! Aurelia is brave, bold and wears her curse proudly. Jules is Mr Darcy for a new generation. They set the standard for courtship. If you're not committing felonies together, is it love?' Rosie Talbot, author of Sixteen Souls

This was a really fun continuation of the series, which I’d recommend especially to anyone who’s missing that Harry Potter kind of vibe.

*4.5* I was so excited to jump back into the world of the Wycherleys after finishing (and adoring) the first book last year. It feels like time has flown by since I last dipped into the world and yet also like it was just yesterday that the enemies turned to lovers and good defeated evil. More so, I......more
