Her favorite teacher, Mrs. Wadsworth, has asked that Eleanor talk about her intrepid travels around the globe - travelling the Silk Road by bicycle, crossing the Himalayas and even befriending the Maharaja of India.

She’s also purchased perfect presents for each of her household - not forgetting the biggest bone in the butcher’s shop for her partner in crime, Gladstone the bulldog - and is looking forward to celebrating her first English country Christmas.

My name is Nix, and I am a familiar. Or, I want to be one. I turn 21 in less than two weeks and before then I have to find a witch that will bond with me. If I don't, I will turn into a normal cat and lose my magic, including my human form. The problem is, no one wanted me to be their familiar. I am not very good at controlling my magic. Every time I try to, something blows up...or catches on fire. Of course, now that I’ve actually found a witch who would accept me, she’s been kidnapped.

England, 1920. Lady Eleanor Swift, adventurer extraordinaire and reluctant amateur detective, is taking a break from sleuthing. She’s got much bigger problems: Eleanor has two left feet, nothing to wear and she’s expected at the masked ball at the local manor. Her new beau Lance Langham is the host, so she needs to dazzle. Surrounded by partygoers with painted faces, pirates, priests and enough feathers to drown an ostrich, Eleanor searches for a familiar face. As she follows a familiar pair of long legs up a grand staircase, she’s sure she’s on Lance’s trail.

For years, I was told that Wonderland was just a dream. That all of the fantastic characters were figments of my imagination. But they never went away. As a girl, I'd have dreams on the anniversary of my first "adventure" in Wonderland. Hatter, Cheshire, Rabbit, and Queen would visit me, playing games and just generally have fun with me on those nights. Once I became a woman, the dreams changed. Cheshire was no longer just a cat, he was a sinfully attractive man with cat ears atop his head. The others changed as well, each becoming a more adult version of what they had shown me before.

Changelings are well known in lore. Fae take the human child and leave their own behind. But nobody has told the story of what happens to the human child taken. My name is Amelie le Fae and I am a human changeling. High King Oberon declared long ago that changelings had to marry and stay within the realm. I’m a bit of a different case. I was born a witch and being brought to the underground realm only increased the potency of my magic. Unfortunately, Oberon had a clause ready for changelings like me. Upon our 300th birthday, we must be bound to no less than three mates.
