Impending Rayne (Adult Edition)
Rayne Blackwood has everything a girl her age could desire: wealth, nice things, a private school... However, Rayne isn't the typical teenager. What she wants more than anything is her family. With a mother and father who are always away at work, her older brother, Joshua, is the only friend in the world that she has that means anything to her.
After a soul crushing confrontation with her mother, she grabs her things and runs to the one place she knows that she will find peace - a beautiful clearing within the acres and acres of forestry on her parents land. What stands there, awaiting her, is unlike anything she's ever seen.
A portal calls to her, begging her to step inside its infinite depths. Unable to resist, Rayne finds herself tumbling through time, transporting to a land once thought to be a product of fiction. She meets a strange girl in a red cloak, claiming that Rayne will one day soon be the new leader of the Ivory Army. With her help, and the help of others, Rayne must find her way to Wonderland, what is now present day Europe, to locate Ashlynn, the White Queen. She has a gift for Rayne that will set her along her journey.
Will Rayne be able to reunite the severed Kingdoms? Or will she fail, as Alice did before her?

Rayne is young, pretty, wealthy but wants more. What's money if your always alone?
After a confrontation with her absentee mother Rayne goes to her special spot but as she approaches she notices a swirling vortex that sucks her into a foreign land in the past.
She meets what she thought were fictional characters and see's the grim realities that were sugarcoated. Good didn't beat evil here and the wicked Witches are Queen's of the Lands and Rayne is the peoples only hope to bring peace to the lands.
I was very up and down with this book as some bits seemed almost too easy and perfect as Rayne and her brother get on perfect and her Father believes anything she tells him without question and their all so honest with each other which just seems un-natural from teenagers.
Wish i'd read more about Raynes brother but this is only book 1 and book 2 will see them journeying together so there's ample opportunity for all the characters to develop.
Very few editing errors and where appropriate the language used was relevant to the characters background.
Interesting to see where this magical land leads them
3.5/5

I'm going to put a disclaimer here that I blindly started this book without reading the description. I've read other books by the author do I figured it would be the same type of book (my usual contemporary paranormal romance). This book was a mix between YA and the trendy fairy tale stories retold. It really wasn't something I would buy on my own, but the author did manage to suck me in. It just really isn't a set of books I can find myself actively looking for.

This book had potential, but it went too fast, with no character development and the end was so anticlimactic that the rest of the book seemed pointless once it was all over.

Good vs. Evil with a twist!
An intriguing story weaving together many childhood fairytales we all know & love! Rayne deciding to battle against evils unknown to her is exciting, scary, & a bit nuts. So many of these terrific characters won me over pretty quick. I can't wait to see how this story plays out! Especially after that ending! =D
