Alice in the Country of Clover: Nightmare

After finally settling in the Country of Hearts, Alice's world is turned upside-down yet again when the landmasses shift into the Country of Clover! Alice isn't the only one mourning the loss--Ace was dragged to Clover alongside her, leaving him without Julius, the one confidante who seemed able to hold him together. Now, Ace's newfound mental instability has made him extremely dangerous. Alice is drawn to him, but her desire to help may be her downfall.

A terrible night with Ace in the forest has left Alice reeling. Even if she's willing to face the darkness inside him, is she only doing it out of pity? Now that the mandatory assembly--run by Nightmare--is starting up in the Country of Clover, all the role-holders are gathered for a peaceful summit. Alice plans to use the event to try and untangle her feelings about Ace. In the meantime, Elliot is also falling for her, and love triangles, even tentative ones, can get deadly in Wonderland.

In the Country of Clover, Alice finds herself newly drawn to Boris, but their budding love affair is anything but stable. No matter how happy the Cheshire Cat makes her, Alice still feels the pull of her old world; the more she falls in love, the deeper her remorse. Enter the White Rabbit. How is he connected to Alice's feelings of guilt, and why, exactly, is time of the essence? Lost in love in Wonderland...a  guilty pleasure, indeed.

Alice and her boyfriend, the wily Cheshire Cat, have grown closer in their new home in the Country of Clover. As their relationship deepens, so does Alice's sense of self--she is now at peace with her new life and love. But the treacherous world around her takes no break for romance. Just as Alice becomes embroiled in a mob war, Boris makes a choice she never saw coming. Love is a gilded care in Wonderland... a beautiful, yet fragile prison.

Now that Alice and the Cheshire Cat have gone from friends to lovers, they need to adapt to their new relationship--and the changes within themselves. Boris wants Alice out of Hatter mansion immediately, yet Alice hasn't found the right time to tell Blood. But the shady dealings of the mob family may force her hand. Will the Mad Hatter take it in stride, or flip his lid? It takes a crazy kind of love to navigate the romantic landscape of Wonderland.

Alice has finally worked up the courage to flee Hatter Mansion, bolstered by the love of Boris by her side. While Blood threatened to tear them apart, a rival gang of faceless thugs may get to them first. That is, until Ace shows up, and it's anybody's guess how the cards will fall. In Wonderland, no one can hear you cry...

The shadowy figures stalking Alice finally strike! In desperation, Boris makes an unlikely alliance to rescue his love. But the Cheshire Cat isn't the only one making strange bedfellows--with Alice in peril, the warring residents of the Country of Clover now share a common goal. These bitter enemies must put aside their petty differences and form a motley force to be reckoned with. In a climactic battle, it's more than Alice's relationship with Boris at stake--it's the fate of the entire Country of Clover. Nothing is certain in Wonderland, except this: in love and war, everything ends with a bang!
