The road to heaven is paved with Mary Wiles’ victims.
Los Angeles isn’t just a playground for those searching for a new start. It’s a darker and more dangerous place than they’ll ever know. But Mary’s not fooled.
With her hands full trying to play human while looking for a way back to heaven, Mary doesn’t have time to polish her halo let alone solve a murder case. But when she finds out demons are responsible, Mary just can’t help herself.
When Mary makes a mistake causing her best friend to be taken, she will have to make a choice: sacrifice an innocent for the chance to get her revenge or lose everything she has worked for. Mary starts to realize there is no clear path back to heaven without becoming tainted herself.

Oh my… I finished reading and loved reading Marked by Hell. If you love reading about Demons, Angels and the Supernatural you will love Marked by Hell. The Author is incredible with the way she way she writes this story line… Marked by Hell ( The Mary Wiles Chronicles Book 1) the Characters really come to life… I can’t wait till book 2 is out so that I can find out what happens. My favorite part is in the last chapter… If you are curious.. You need to read the book

Mary is an angel that came to earth to save her commander. Demons caught her and cut off her wings. Now she is on the hunt for Ramiel and any demon she can send back to Hell. She hopes to get her wings back and be able to go back to Heaven. So she becomes a private detective. What a wonderful beginning. I can hardly wait for the next book.

The nice thing about the books by Bedford is that they are light, easy and usually not that long. It are the perfect books to read on busy days or with a busy head or when I’m not feeling too well or just when I like a quick and easy and entertaining read. So, when Booksprout told me that she had added 4 more books to review I didn’t hesitate for a moment. I mean, normally I wouldn’t get so many review copies by the same author at once, but what could go wrong? Luckily this book is indeed exactly what I had expected it to be. Although some heavy themes are discussed in this book and people with sexual harassment and rape triggers should totally be careful while reading this book, it was a quick and easy read for me. This is partly because of Bedford’s writing style, that’s never too flowery and comes to the point and on top of that really fits the character who’s point of view we’re reading. But it’s also because she never lets the story drag. She writes what needs to be written and nothing more. The result is therefore a quite fast paced story with little to no info dumping and a lot of action. What I love about this book was the mythology of angels, demons and heaven and hell. I’m quite curious to learn more about those two parts of this world, but I’m also quite curious to see how Mary will deal with the rest of her life on earth. Although loads of details concerning the mythology are missing I never felt like I missed information needed to understand the story or what’s going on. It also helps that Mary is quite a cute and entertaining character. As an angel she has some issues adapting to living as a human. The way she views our world and discovers new things makes it easy to like her and to root for her. It also made me grin quite a few times. Add a little touch of innocence to the mix and a lot of bad ass skills and slightly supernatural power and you get the perfect leading lady for this saga. I’m glad I got the other three books too and I can’t wait to read them to find out what issues, problems and challenges are waiting for Mary!

this book was so good. So basically an angel comes down from heaven after losing her wings and fights off demons. She falls in love with a half demon named Sid. but she doesn’t know he is a half demon till adsomouros tells her. Lets just say this book is definitely a thriller worth reading.
Davina Hanna –
I honestly wasn’t expecting too much from this book but I was definitely surprised. Love the whole demons and fallen angels them here especially the tension and story line between Mary and Sid. Plenty of action and banter to keep an interest and wanting more. Definitely looking forward to more of the story. Now to find her best friend. Yayyy!!!

Beautifully written, humorous Paranormal/Urban Fantasy read with action, snarky dialogue, good pacing, and great characters. This book will hook the reader and keep them engaged with the interesting and entertaining plot and a kick-ass heroine. I enjoyed this book.

Mary is a fallen angel who has become a PI/demon exorcist/occult specialist to the police. A lot to take on for one warrior angel but with friends at her back and a talisman that was made from one of her feathers she can get the job done. Little by little she will figure out what that she is more human than she thought when a string of murders has her investigating a ritual by demons. A great book from an author that I have come to adore.

This was a fun read with supernaturals galore in the city of angels. But there are demons too and Mary trying to gain her wings back while fighting them and finding her friend makes for some funny scenes. It’s exciting and it sucked me in because I could picture everything in my head.

Mary is an angel living in the human world as a human. Her wings have been sawed off and all she wants is to get them back and go home. Mary runs a P.I. business dealing mostly with the supernatural. When she is called in by the L.A.P.D. to help with a case things begin to change drastically. I thought this was a good start to a new series and look forward to reading more.

Marked By Hell is book one and a great start to The Mary Wiles series. Mary is an angel who lost her wings and is playing human until she can find her way back to Heaven, find her friend and get revenge against the demons who took her wings. This is an entertaining read packed with humor, mystery, danger, suspense, intrigue, twists, romance and interesting characters. I look forward to reading the rest of this series.

As the first in the Mary Wiles series, this story throws you right into the action. Mary just an angel who’s lost her wings, trying to make her way in this modern world, exorcising demons one baddies at a time. I loved how her naïveté and simple lack of comprehension of situations leads to some funny dialogue. Mary is one kick-butt angel, and I can’t wait to read her next adventure!

Mary Wiles is an angel whose wings were removed by demons and she was left on Earth with no way to get back to heaven. She makes a living as a private investigator, tracking down cheating spouses and helping the police department with the spooky stuff on the side. Mary was called to a crime scene where a dead woman was tied to a bed and torn apart with a smile on her face.Mary knows a ritual was being performed but not by who, other than demons, or why. The writer drops you in the middle of Mary’s life and fills in details as you need them, much like film noir does. The action takes place in Los Angeles in a world that has an increasing number of demons and angels appearing and starting to interfere with human, who have no idea they are surrounded by supernatural beings. The author sets up the world so that the reader often learns what’s going on when the protagonist does. This is written much like the film noir/hard-boiled detective novels but with a supernatural twist. Can’t wait for the next one.

The first book in a new series by Erin Bedford, that looks like it’s going to be an on the edge read. The series revolves around Mary, who is an angel who, while looking for her missing commander, Ramiel, was captured by demons. During this time, her wings were taken, meaning she can’t go back to Heaven…… even if she wanted to. But Mary refuses to try to return without Ramiel. So far this first book makes it look like this is going to be one very interesting read, so now on to book 2.
Cali Jewel –
Action packed, emotionally thrilling, edge of your seat adventure filled with magical, dangerous and engaging charters, witty dialog, heart racing twists and exciting turns. A great read from beginning to end.
