Wilds of Wonder

A cursed land. A mysterious rival. A deadly game of survival.

Emory has spent her life raised to be a wife. Her husband has no clue about her secret hobby. She hunts for magical and rare artifacts, hoping that one day she can join the esteemed Academy of Historians & Scholars.

When the unthinkable happens, she's given an opportunity to find a divine relic belonging to one of the ancient seven spirits, a lightning bolt with deadly powers. Finding it could be her ticket to joining the academy. The catch? It’s been stolen by the bone collector, a nemesis who also has a penchant for collecting historical objects—and who crosses over into a mysterious land with the bolt in tow.

Now Emory has to follow him into this wonderland of death, where nothing is as it seems, most of all the bone collector. To survive and get out, she must do something she never thought she would. Work with him. Mystery and intrigue surround them, and what they begin to discover not only unravels everything they thought they knew about their world and their magic . . . but even more terrifying, about themselves.

Wilds of Wonder is book four in Stolen Crowns, a series of steamy standalone but interconnected fairytale retellings. This Alice in Wonderland retelling is perfect for fans of banter, (very) snarky heroines, and slow-burn romance.
