The second book in the Wonderland installation, this book does not disappoint. The love triangle we saw blossom in book one has taken full force and taken over center stage for book two. A total sucker for a love triangle, I was sucked right in an I am without a doubt, totally team Morpheus. Mostly for me though, Alyssa is a great character but tries to hard to shy away from what she knows is her life, endangering the Wonderland creatures with her fear I think she should marry Jeb and I'll marry Morpheus for her.
A year after Alyssa first visited Wonderland, she's a senior in high school and Jeb is off in London becoming a famous artist. Despite having saved Wonderland, her dreams and art are still being plagued by visions of a crumbling Wonderland, with Morpheus visiting her dreams almost every night it's as if she never left. Alyssa thought after she abandoned the throne, naming Grenadine in her stead, she would be able to continue her human life with Jeb, the future she truly wants. However, Wonderland and it's inhabitants won't wait. Since she refuses to return,Queen Red and others bring the battle to the human world, forcing Alyssa to reclaim her rightful place and defend two worlds at once. With Morpheus making things more and more complicated in Alyssa's day to day life, no longer hiding just in her dreams, she has no choice but to acknowledge feelings she has attempted to push aside. She must accept her heart can not belong to just her human or her moth, they represent the two halves of her whole and she has no idea how to balance both versions of herself. With a battle gone completely wrong, Jeb, Morpheus and Alyssa's mother vanish into Anyelswhere leaving Alyssa alone and locked away in the same asylum that once held her mother. Alyssa realizes she must step up and be the hero and she finds out more about herself, her loves and her parents than she could've ever imagined.
I can not wait to read the final novel in this series, knowing it is going to pull together in the most amazing way. I also can't wait to see the resolution for the love triangle and might actually rage if Morpheus is thrust to the side (I'll be awaiting him with open arms though). I'm excited to return to Wonderland and see it restored to it's proper place and am genuinely unsure who will take over the crown with so many contenders ready to duke it out.Do yourself a favor and pick this up if you are a fan of the classic, romance or adventure this is a series complimentary to so many collections.
