I thought this book was amazing. This is a beautiful exotic book that takes place in a foreign country of beauty. The author does well in introducing the different culture and I think that it is a beautiful love story. There are some definite twists and turns that keep the story interesting and the author gives you a romantic relationship that you want to root for. This is a book that is worth reading.

This book was a good read. It is different from the genre's that I normally stick to but it included some of the genres I love like romance and action. This story gives you all sorts of twists and turns to keep you interested as well as a tantalizing prologue that keeps you guessing. The love interest is different than what you find in all of the mainstream books but not in a bad way, it is different and exotic and its refreshing from reading the same thing over and over. This is a story that is fun and definitely deserves a try.
SHADOW CASE EMBERS REVIEW
M.D. on Goodreads 5 stars
Really enjoyed this book. I liked the authors take on Wonderland. The characters are like-able and her take on them is refreshing. My favorite tie in was Lydia, the White Queen/the White Rabbit. I pictured the White Rabbit as The White Queen’s projection. The rabbit being able to go forth at times when the Queen is unable. Also, I like how she interpreted Alice as not just one but as there having been many. I normally don’t pick books like this. However, she happens to be a local author here in the town I reside. I had read a few online reviews she did have and decided to purchase all her current books at a local book signing she was having. I like supporting local artists and Mom/pop places. This book is not as risky as the author made it out to be. However, I do warn you all the characters are female (for the most part) and there are few romantic scenes. I advise readers be 16+.
