When she literally tumbles down a rabbit hole, she finds she has left her familiar home city of San Francisco. She has landed in a strange and beautiful world, where she meets a powerful and dominant shapeshifter, Jarronn, and his equally fierce and irresistible brothers.
By the draw of a card foretelling his kingdom’s future, Jarronn has deliberately lured Alice to his realm in hopes of averting a terrible danger threatening his people. He has every intention of saving his kingdom with his and Alice’s bond of passion, and nothing will stop him from making her his Queen of Hearts.
Alice tilted her head to the side. Before she left to return to San Francisco, though, she was going to have to sample what this Kingdom of Hearts had to offer.
She mentally shook her head. This was crazy. She was crazy. She actually believed all this was real.
Alice’s head was going to explode with an overload of information, sights, sounds, and smells if she didn’t take things a little slower.
Trying to distract herself, she studied her surroundings. Through arches along the hallway she saw glimpses of massive rooms and beautiful furnishings, all illuminated by the warm glow of candlelight—thousands of candles must have been burning there. The castle smelled of roses and wood oils, and the light scent of the candles.
She had a brief thought of posting a picture of Tarok to Facebook and including “Kingdom of Hearts” as the location and tagging it “with Kalina and King Jarronn.” And of course her mood would be “feeling crazy.”
Maybe on Pinterest she could start an “Essential Oils” board with pictures of Kalina’s jars of the oils she used to massage Alice. And of course she would make a board on “Bondage Fantasies.” Oh, and she could include pictures of all the kings to her already existing board, “Delicious Men” and add Land of Tarok to “Travel Destinations.”
She could just imagine tweeting to her friends:
@AliceOBrienSF is exploring Kingdom of Hearts w/King Jarronn. Will I meet Mad Hatter and Cheshire Cat? #weirdcreatures #goingcrazy #hotkings.
Okay, she really was feeling crazy. Really crazy.
