After i left Alice and her Sir at Wonderland,i needed a moment.
To digest,to evaluate my feelings,to find the words i wanted to use.
In the end i gave up,because my feelings weren’t that easy to describe.
Even so,i’m very happy i found this beauty on Apple Books.
And very glad Lindsay Murray reminded me i had when she started reading West of Wonderland,the next story of the series.
We meet “Alice” as she’s introduced to the magic of Wonderland.
When she goes to visit for the first time,not knowing what to expect.
Not knowing who will be guiding her on her journey towards her deepest desires.
And we follow her on that journey,see her striving to submit to her Sir’s demands.
And feel her fears of failing,her struggle to trust that he knows what she needs.
Her growing understanding of her need to please her Sir,simply because it makes her happy to please him.
We see a few glimpses of “Gabriel”,her Sir,and how he feels about the newbie sub.
How she keeps surprising him with her willingness to learn.
To strive to give him what he demands,simply because she wants to please her Sir.
And how,to his shock,he finds he wants more of his Duckling.
Even starts texting with her in “real life”.
Until he makes a mistake with disastrous consequenses……and loses everything.
As first introductions to an author,this was a very good one,and i hope to be able to read more of her work.
I was there,with Alice,every step of the way down the rabbithole.
Felt what she did,encouraged her as she accepted herself in all of her submissive beauty.
Hugged her when everything fell apart,and she lost the one person she’d grown to trust to keep her safe.
I had a very strong urge to give Gabriel a kick to his behind for what he’d done.
But,judging by his own emotions,he was already doing that himself….
