Princess of Hearts | New Adult Fantasy
Alice fell down the rabbit hole... And now she's got a crown on her head. The adopted daughter of the Queen of Hearts, she does not have time for her free-spirited sister, or for the Prince of Diamonds, who she keeps running into. Lorina, the Prince of Diamond's sister, has got her own fight. Stuck under the thumb of her tyrant father, and tortured by visions, she's only alive out of spite. Lorina refuses to rot. Rohini, also known as the assassin Robin, has been assigned to the Princess of Spades. After growing up poor, she's got some resentments towards the ruling class. Clarabelle, who grew up wealthy but is now pretty solidly working class in the kingdom Clubs, has similar resentments. Stuck practicing medicine in a system that doesn't care if people are sick, and tormented by her childhood friend Theo, life keeps throwing her curveballs. Wonderland's going mad. Power is up in the air. Whoever grabs it, wins.
