Taken by Passion by Jaymie Holland

2.0

This book came across rather annoying to me for most of it, but it was better than what I was reading at the time. The relationship wasn't built, it was demanded, which made it feel forced to me. We aren't privy to in depth conversations of getting to know one another, the readers are only given snippets of it. There wasn't a real "Wonderland" vibe, just that some of the residents could do magic and some of the food names resembled the Lewis Carroll story. I did admire the way that the King of Hearts helped build Alice's self-esteem about being plus-sized, but it wasn't enough to lift the book to a 3 star rating.
