The Key to Wonderland - Eliza Nevius

\nThe Key to Wonderland\n \n\n \nA snarky bookstore owner and a dangerously attractive Mad Hatter. Welcome to Wonderland-try not to lose your head.\n \nAlicia Hightower isn't crazy. Probably. But when a glowing copy of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland zaps her into a realm filled with seductive tea parties, murderous monarchs, and sassier versions of childhood classics, she starts questioning everything-especially her life choices.\n \n\n \nOne minute, she's alphabetizing romance novels in her sleepy little bookshop. The next, she's being told she's the Key to saving Wonderland from a tyrannical queen, escorted by a sly Cheshire, a moody Caterpillar with cryptic advice, all the while growing dangerously close to a maddeningly infuriating (and infuriatingly attractive) Mad Hatter.\n \n\n \nAlicia doesn't know magic. She doesn't do quests. But apparently, that doesn't matter when a realm built on illusions and nonsense decides she's their last hope. Thrust into a world where queens rule with blood-soaked hands, riddles bite back, and reality bends like ribbon, Alicia must decide what she's willing to sacrifice... and who she's becoming.\n \n\n \nWith her sarcasm sharp as a blade and her Converse ready for battle, Alicia has to navigate hedge mazes, masquerade balls, backstabbing friends', and an evil Knave of Hearts-all while trying not to fall for the one man who might just be mad enough to break her heart.\n \n\n \nIf you love fantasy with bite, banter that could kill, and female leads who take no nonsense (unless it's served with tea), then get ready to tumble down the rabbit hole. This darkly whimsical, romantic, and sharp as a sword disguised as a teaspoon tale, The Key to Wonderland, is the first book in the Once Upon Another Time series-perfect for fans of twisted fairytales, slow-burn tension, and heroines who refuse to be tamed.\n \n\n Once Upon Another Time... Fairytales Get a Wicked Twist \nWelcome to the Once Upon Another Time series-a collection of dark, dreamy retellings where beloved fairytales unravel into something entirely new. From Wonderland to Neverland and beyond, Eliza Nevius weaves magic, danger, and slow-burn romance into unforgettable adventures.\n \nFairytales were never meant to stay tame.\n \n\n
