REVIEW: Her Mad Hatter by Marie Hall



Her Mad Hatter

5 HEARTS

From Goodreads

Alice is all grown up. Running the Mad Hatter's Cupcakery and Tea Shoppe is a delicious job, until fate--and a fairy godmother with a weakness for bad boys--throws her a curveball. Now, Alice is the newest resident of Wonderland, where the Mad Hatter fuels her fantasies and thrills her body with his dark touch.


The Mad Hatter may have a voice and a body made for sex, but he takes no lovers. Ever. But a determined fairy godmother has forced Alice into Wonderland--and his arms. Now, as desire and madness converge, the Hatter must decide if he will fight the fairy godmother's mating--or fight for Alice.


I have always love Alice in Wonderland so when I saw this book I had to have it. I will admit I had high expectations but it didn’t disappoint at all. 

Hatter is nuts like always but it is so endearing. The riddles and the ramblings were very hatter-esque and not over done. He did have a bit of a bite but after going through hundreds of Alices but it wouldn’t feel real if he wasn’t a bitter. Once he gave Alice a chance they connected on so many levels.

Alice was caring and very inventive. I loved her shop and the cupcake ideas were so cute. I felt a bit sorry for her because Hatter wasn’t the prince charming she imagined at first. He was a bit of an ass. She did preserve until he let her. Then my heart dropped when she left because they thought Wonderland didn’t want her. But the ending was beautifully done.

This is a great redo of an old classic. Sometimes the new take on an old favorite can leave a bad taste in your mouth but not in this case. It was refreshing and pulled me right in. I really loved Danika because she didn’t go for the “normal” fairy godmother pupils. She wanted the bad boys right from the start and that was such a unique twist. I loved it and I can’t wait to start the rest of the series. Marie Hall you made a fan for life!
