Untamed (Splintered #3.5) by A.G. Howard

How about a modern day Alice in Wonderland with even more developed and passionate characters?  You got it!

Abrams Books sent me a copy of this to read for review (thank you).  I hadn't read the other books in this series but I could still read this one with no problem.  This book is available now and you should grab it.

There are three novellas in the book.  It's like a look back at the other books in the series.  Alyssa and her family share their memories of Wonderland and I enjoyed the read very much.  Love is a big factor here.  Alyssa's mother gave up Wonderland to marry her human love.  Alyssa saved a human boy and fell in love with him.  Morpheus can't let go of Alyssa.  He's supposed to be a solitary fae, but he loves her.  He even goes within Jeb's memories to see why she's so attached to him.  How they resolve the triangle of a love is a wonderful fantasy touch.

You won't be bored.  You might even have to buy the other books in the series.  This one tends to give some back story to what has already happened, so you definitely need it.  By the way, who doesn't like to read about true love?
