Three keys to claiming Wonderland's throne: 1. Win over the citizens (who are caught up in a drug-fueled daze). 2. Recover the magical artifacts of my royal line (which are hidden behind a squad of brutal guards). 3. Draw on the love of the three most extraordinary men I've ever met (one of whom is held captive by a tyrant queen). Okay, I've got my work cut out for me. But my people and my lovers are counting on me. I won't give up this wondrous land. There's a new queen in town. The Hearts and Diamonds had better get ready to bow down.

And now my enemies have left me with a horrible accusation hanging over my head, using so many tricks I can barely defend myself. If I want to clear my name and keep my freedom, I have to turn to the guys who once made my life hell. They've changed their tune and made amends, but how far can I really count on them? Especially if they find out that my greatest foes are within their families.

Unfortunately, our recent triumph has enraged a power-hungry giant who wants to see me dead all over again, along with everyone and everything I care about. And then there's our newly returned leader...

I didn't come to this bizarre, intoxicating place looking for trouble, but I've sure as hell found it. As the Queen retaliates viciously against the Spades' rebellion, it's up to me and the three alluring men I've allied with to save Wonderland before so many innocents lose their heads. Easier said than done. With Hatter tapping into his inner Mad, Chess pulling a vanishing act, and the White Knight revealing secrets darker than I could have imagined, everything I counted on here has turned upside down. When the swords come out, will I even be able to save myself?

The pact is broken. The human world that Alex once belonged to is no longer safe. From every direction, lycans from other packs are arriving, forming an army that will hopefully be ready to fight Valkos and his werewolves. Assuming, of course, that they can stop fighting among themselves first. And that Alex can somehow find a way to lead them. Before she can do that, though, she must harness the new magic that's awakened in her - magic that took her grandfather years to master. She has weeks to master it.

A smarter, saner woman would keep her nose out of it, turn a blind eye, and just focus on enjoying the three insanely hot men who’ve agreed to share her. Unfortunately, sanity isn’t really in my wheelhouse. We barely escaped the last Gods’ Challenge with our lives, and not everyone who competed was so lucky. It’s dangerous as hell to go back, but I know that’s where the answers lie. With my men by my side, we’ll risk the dangers of the gods’ realm again. But this time...we won’t be playing by their rules.

During a Christmas Eve wedding at the Biltmore Estate in Asheville, North Carolina, Ellen and her friends are visited by multiple ghosts. The spirits have come to tell their stories to right the wrongs that history has done to their memories. Each of them died in Asheville with their voices stifled. One spirit is particularly adamant and threatening, despite her small size, and her mood fluctuates like the mountain winds surrounding the great estate. She claims to be the ghost of Zelda Fitzgerald, and she wants her story told, even if she has to kill to make it happen.

Having my birth mother back in my life? To say it's a big transition is an understatement. Especially when she's basically a stranger to me, and I'm not sure yet whether I can trust her to be any more maternal than the average fearmancer parent (which, spoiler, isn't much).

They've turned their sights on my fellow scions and newfound lovers, putting them under fire from far too close to home. As if that wasn't enough, an unsettling plan is unfolding that threatens every student on campus.
