Wicked is a series of young adult novels written by American authors Nancy Holder and Debbie Viguié.
In Witch, Holly Cathers, the main character, is the lone survivor of the rafting trip her family took with her best friend, and later receives a small cat who is deaf, Bast.
Jer and Holly have a strange connection due to the ancestors that they carry with them and at a party they almost fell into bed with one another.
At the party though, all three cousins receive a strange burn-like birthmark on their hands, marking them as the Three Ladies of the Lily of the Cahors family.
Jean and Isabeau were once married to try to form a connection and truce between the two feuding families, but it backfired as the two lovers had to betray the other, setting forth a Romeo and Juliet type of reincarnation cycle.
