About this listen
For the Lovely, there are two defining days in life, three if they’re fortunate. The first is at birth, when the one with whom they shared a womb forever joins the dead. The second is in their sixth year, when they touch their first stone and connect with the Realm.
Olean knows this all too well, having accessed the Realm for years, reading people, seeing and feeling their thoughts and actions as if they were her own. Now that she’s of age and possesses a higher stone ability, her third defining day has come—a chance to join the prestigious Queen’s Garden.
But this change isn’t the only one she’ll face.
When the queen arrives for a test, Olean learns not all truths are so clearly seen. A voice informs her of the recent castle murders and urges her to link her mind with Croft’s—a royal attendant who may know more than most—to find answers that could save other lives, quite possibly her own.
Olean must choose between her desired path to a revered position or one that risks it all, filled with deception to the Crown and to Croft, going against everything she’s ever known.

Story
The mythical Vase of Venus Aurelia hasn’t been seen since 1932, but Margot Rhodes is determined to change that. Drawn by the vase’s supposed magical properties, Margot embarks on her school’s archaeological trip to Pompeii. Sure, it’s her first time holding a shovel, but she’s got something no one else does: lost teenage explorer Van Keane’s journal. Poring over the poetic entries that serve as a map to the vase’s missing shards, Margot finds herself falling in love with the boy who wrote it a century ago.

Story
Merrick Darling’s life as daughter of the Manor Lord of Sussex is better than most. Unlike the commoners, she is immune to the toxic fog that encroached on England generations earlier. She will never become a Phantom—one of the monstrous creatures that stalk her province’s borders—and as long as the fires burn to hold them back, her safety is ensured. She wants for nothing, yet she will never inherit her family’s Manor. She must marry smartly or live at the kindness of her elder sister, Essie. Everything is turned on its head, though, when Merrick’s father dies suddenly.

Story
Fresh off a breakup and an eviction, I started my day like any other: a book in one hand, a coffee in the other, and faking that can-do attitude inspirational memes are made of. I was ready to take on the world—and I did. Unfortunately, it was the Underworld. One freak accident later, I’m standing face to face with the sexy-as-sin and dangerously powerful Prince of the Underworld. He has a few burning questions for me—like how a mere human unlocked the door to the Underworld’s prison and released its prisoners.

It was already a weird Friday. My class is stuck on an eerily remote island for our senior trip, I’m pretty sure Mr. D (“call me Max”) is hiding something from us, my ex–best friend turned nemesis keeps stealing my candy, and tonight’s plan for my boyfriend and me to finally lose our virginity to each other is going hellishly. I mean, ceviche is delicious, don’t get me wrong. But a dish made from a supposedly immortal octopus should really come with a warning label.

Story
Surviving a werewolf attack should’ve been the strangest thing to happen to me tonight. But no, the universe had other plans. Now, I’m stuck dealing with a broodingly hot guy named Wesley St. John—who seems way too comfortable with murder. Definitely a red flag, right? Wes isn’t just some guy I stumbled upon—he’s a protector, but not the friendly kind. His job is to keep the supernatural world in check, and my ignorance is making things complicated.

THE LIFE OF THE LOVELY
I ABSOLUTELY LOVED BEING PULLED INTO THE WORLD OF THE LOVELY & BEING ABLE TO SEE THE CONNECTION BETWEEN OLEAN & CROFT GROW FROM BEGINNING OF THE STORY TO THE END! I CAN'T RECOMMEND THIS BOOK ENOUGH TO ALL OF THE ROMANTASY BOOK LOVERS OUT THERE! J. M. MILLER (AUTHOR) & AMELIA HUGH (NARRATOR) IT KNOCKED OUT OUT OFF THE PARK WITH THIS ONE!

A YA Fantasy with unique magic & mystery!
Dead and Lovely is a ya fantasy book that will hook you from the beginning to the end. The author created a unique world with detailed descriptions and settings. I enjoyed the underlying mystery plot that took another twist in the story. The magic system was very intriguing. The characters were interesting and the storyline well written. The writing style is solid and the plot compelling. A good ending to the story.
Amelia Hugh did a amazing performance with this audio. Her inflection was easy to listen to. I felt like i was transported into another world.
The audio was a good listen and I recommend listening.

Found myself lost in the Realm!
I loved the attention to details.
