• 3.75 stars:"Wicked In Wales is a little snippet of sex. At only sixteen pages this was a well-written little saga of two people that have an instant lust for each other. Eve even includes a twist at the end. The characters are thoroughly described and the setting really doesn't matter that much, it's Wales and who would not want to be transported there? If only the story was a little longer because the Eve just wets your appetite. Maybe that s the idea? Wicked In Wales wets your appetite and leaves you wanting more. Eve Savage please keep on writing--short or long--whatever!" - Night Owl Reviews
