The Underground #0.5
Chasing Hearts
This is a prequel novella to the Underground Series and can be read at any time in the series.
While Alice rampaged through Wonderland a different story was being told. One that never should have been forgotten.
The Fae courts have always been separated. So different from each other they could never agree on what is right and what is very very wrong.
Until now.
A mistake long forgotten is quickly closing in and the two courts must now put all their faith in combining their powers by marriage.
Lynne is nothing more than a caged bird. With only her books and plants to keep her company she will finally get the chance to be free when the Seelie Queen commands her to marry. The dark prince of the UnSeelie Court is nothing like Lynne would have imagined. Dashing and a bit broody he will capture her heart before she can even realize what has happened.
But not everyone wants a happily ever after for these two Fae. There are some who would revel in seeing them fall and in turn all of the Wonderland will burn.

This story is a prequel to the Underground series. This is Lynne and Dorian's background story. It's a great twist on Alice in Wonderland. This book is a stand alone prequel and can be read at any point in the series. But if your new to the series start here.
March 5, 2020
Quite some time ago I read the first Alice book, officially book 5 I believe in this series, and although I have to admit that the plot at the time seemed a little vague to me, I did fall in love with the version of Wonderland, how the Fae come into it and how there seemed to be some political thing going on between the courts and the other creatures in the land.
And last week I decided that I was finally gonna read the rest of the series and I would start with this prequel. I never know if that's a good idea, but it couldn't get more confusing anyway so I had nothing to lose. And I was right. I had nothing to lose. Even more: This prequel provided quite a few answers, although it also lead to just as many questions.
The plot from this prequel was much easier to follow, since it was mostly a love story and since I already read the Alice story I kinda knew where it was gonna end. Normally love stories aren't my favorite plots, but in this case I quite enjoyed it. Firstly because it was a relatively short story, so it never bored me. Secondly because I liked these characters and how they got to know each other and grew closer and closer.
Even though there was insta-love here, Bedford took the time to develop her characters and make them fall for each other, for who they were and are, for what they knew of each other. They were talking, getting to know each other, learning facts and discovering new parts of their personalities and they were also exploring the world, giving me a chance to explore it with them.
And I had already fallen in love with the world in the previous book I read, but now I was falling for her even more. There is danger around every corner, a little madness, the world is a life on her own and functions as a human being, with mood swings and likes and dislikes. I really can't wait to dive into the rest of the series to see and explore much more of it.
Luckily the first book of the Underground series has just arrived today!

I loved it!! Finding out the story between Dorian and Lynne. It is a wonderful story filled with everything you want to make a story complete and enticing. Seelie and UnSeelie, magic and magical creatures, danger and betrayal and of course what would a fae story be without deception. Brings a whole new light to Dorian being the Dark Prince and why along with Lynne and her struggles. Great read and as always amazing characters and insight that this author is good for!! A complete story!
August 21, 2020
So I’ve read the whole underground Series In recent days and am totally addicted to it! This prequel novella takes us back to the very beginning and we learn the history for Lynne and Doria. This also answers some questions and ties up a few loose ends and is a great introduction to this adult version of Alice in wonderland!

Chasing Hearts is the prequel to The Underground series. This is a quick read where we get to see the beginning and now we know why things and characters are the way they are. A great way to start the series. I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this prequel.

Excellent read
Wow I feel bad for the main characters that are so in love. This Alice in Wonderland series makes me mad at Alice. Can't wait to read the rest.

Chasing Hearts by Erin Bedford is the prequel to her amazing Underground series. In this book we go back to the beginning and discover how it all comes to be in the Underground in the first place. We meet Lynne, the Seelie princess, who is betrothed to marry the UnSeelie prince, Dorian. The Seer has said after her birth, that she will be lost because of her mother's love. In an attempt to thwart this potential future her mother closes off her heart but sometimes the attempts to thwart what we wish to escape we only put ourselves on the path to encounter that destiny all the more. Dorian, the UnSeelie prince, has his reputation and it most definitely precedes him. He likes the ladies and likes to have his way with the ladies. In the beginning neither of these two is thrilled about the engagement being "forced" upon them but with the coming dangers and then with their own meeting of each other, things change. But there will be no happy ending to come for these two of royal birth.
Chasing Hearts does a great job of taking us back in time to before all the other characters that we have come to know and love through the Underground series. But we get to see hints of them here and there which I absolutely love. This story is as unique as the others and I could hardly put it down once I started reading it. I wanted to know how things came to be. The story flows from Lynne to Dorian with each change of the chapter and I really appreciate the author doing that so that we can keep up with who is being focused on.
I will admit that I would have liked to see more of the changes that the Seelie queen went through to become who she became after learning what the Seer said but I understand that the story is focused on Lynne and Dorian and how things came to be the way that they were when we first enter the Underground with Kat. There were a couple errors that I thought I saw but all in all this book is one to definitely pick up.
This is a great addition to the Underground series and definitely one to add to the collection if you love Erin Bedford's novels. If you are a fan of the Underground series snap this book up and dive in! Never read the series? Grab this book and come on in. It's all fun and games until things get dangerous and the shadows show up.
I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars. Loved it! Going to make time to sit down and read the entire series start to finish!

I received this book in exchange for an honest review.
I have always been a fan of Alice in Wonderland, and this version is a great jumping in point for a new interpretation of the classic story.
It is the story of two different houses, I guess would be the best word for them, of Fae, the Seelie and UnSeelie. I found the intro unclear as to how it related to the story, but as the story unfolded, it became more clear. There is a curse that is mentioned in the beginning, and the way that (I think) it was revealed is well written.
This is a love story, plain and simple, although the way that the two main characters were thrust together beckoned back to a time of arranged marriages to help kingdoms. The male protagonist starts the story as a player, and when he sees his intended, all thoughts of playing the field quickly vanishes. The female protagonist had her heart set against marriage, well, that is until she sees her husband to be. I was hoping for a little bit more development in the story of why their love was destined, as it were, but this could come in future books, as this is the first in what is currently a five book series. We shall see.
The story is well written, with the minor problem mentioned that I had with it above, and will be well worth reading for anyone that is a fan of Lewis Carroll's tale of Alice, or anyone who likes romance. I, for one, do not call myself a fan of romance, but I am looking for the next novel.
I would definitely recommend this book.

Note: I received an advanced review copy in exchange for my honest review.
Chasing Hearts is a pre-quel to an amazing Series by Erin Bedford. If you haven't read " Underground" series yet, this is the perfect step.
Now I am never one to ruin another reader's experience especially through my reviews; and of course you can read the synopsis so you know the basics....let's get down to what I thought of it.
Having read the series itself I found that this not only made the series better; but shows us glimpses into the inner feelings and views of the characters. It not only enhances what I have read before but allows us readers to get a better understanding of how characters got to where they were.
This novel expands on what is a moment we merely hear about almost in passing...and in itself it's a great read. If you look at it simply as a novel: it's good. You have different characters, a great plot and overall a story to enjoy.
Basically: I liked it a lot. Read it, Start here and if you enjoy it so much - continue into the underground. Let Chasing Hearts be a beginning into a fantastic world. You'll really like this book and if anything it'll be like barely scratching an itch to dive deeper..

This story is a prequel to the Underground series and I was eager to find out more about the history of Lynne and Dorian. I was blown away as I was reading this! I have to admit that when reading the rest of the books in the Underground series, I wasn’t too fond of Dorian. After reading this, I now have a much greater appreciation for him. I can see why he was desperate to get Lynne back as they, in this novel, were a great love story. I really can’t say too much for those who haven’t read the rest of the series as I will spoil the other books. But, I do have to say that I want to go back and reread the whole series just to see things from a different perspective. If you are new to this series and are wondering about the end of this novel, just continue with the series, and your questions will be answered in a big way. I wish I had had this prequel first, but I still love this series anyway. If you are a fan of this series, this novel is a must-read. If you are new to the series, please give this introduction to the Underground series a try, especially if you love great love stories; you will not be disappointed! Highly recommend! Thanks to the author for the e-book which I reviewed voluntarily. This exact review will be posted on both Amazon and Goodreads.

Queen and King of the Seelie Court just had their little girl, they are waiting for the seer to come. The seer had some not so great news for the parents. This causes the Queen to close off her heart to her child.
Lynne is not allowed out of the palace, she is temperamental child. She loves to read, she spends a lot of time with her father. She is not happy that her parents decide to arrange a marriage for her. She is supposed to marry the unseelie prince. She decides that she doesn't want to, she wants to refuse.
Dorian is told his duty is to marry the Seelie prince Lynne, he hates that his mother has requested it of him. He will do his duty as he has been asked. He is not a relationship kind of guy. He gets to the palace to finally meet this prince and their story has just begun.
This is nice introduction to the characters from before Chasing Rabbits, fills in some of the backstory rather than the flashbacks some of the characters have, also shows why the queen is the way she is.

-This story also contains "Heart of Ice" which was included in the collection Magic & Mistletoe, now the prologue of this one.
-Prequel to the whole "Alice in Wonderland" with a dark twist. Well done. Gives you a good idea of what's to come.
-You'll have to rethink the story that many of us read when we were young. Alice is not such a great person after all and she's an adult with a very selfish side.
-Although it's a clean story, you are readily reminded of what goes on in a bedroom, as the Faes are open about these facts.
-I loved the courting of Darian and Lynne. It was wonderful and dreamy. Even though neither of them wanted the marriage at first, they quickly submitted.
- I really didn't understand the logic of the white queen in her decisions and I had much pity for the black one, her cousin.
-The story reminds of a French romance movie: There is never a great ending.

Our heroine is ordered to marry to unite the dark and light fae, but it turns out this is an okay thing by her. Unfortunately, not all welcome such a union and they make their displeasure known.
This is book seven of the series, and book three of the second story arc. This one actually works pretty well as a standalone, so if you want to start here, it should work.
This story arc is a fantasy story and something of a retelling of the original Wonderland story, but it is definitely deviating from the original as well. The story is well written, easy to read and continues to be very engaging. The characters are new, fresh and well developed, providing a nice expansion on the entire world. The plot is as convoluted as usual, keeping you guessing as to what will happen next. Overall, another fun installment in the series.
Highly recommended.

This is a seriously wonderful prequel. We are learning the history for Lynne and Dorian. This story gives you a different perspective on quite a few things. It answers any questions quite thoroughly. I have to say that after reading Chasing Hearts, it has made me want to re-read the whole series again because you are now seeing why these beings became who they are. This is a romance that you will not be able to tear yourself away from. Erin Bedford's writing is so clear that as the story is drawing you in, you also feel at one with the characters. You feel their love, their fear, and their heartbreak. I highly recommend this story and this series.

**3.5 stars **
I wasn't too fond for the rest of the Underground series. I found them very disjointed and trying too hard to find a 'voice' in the madness. That being said. I did like this Prequel. Maybe because it was before the forced madness (as there was no AiW script to follow thru the lookinglass and twist into a new take). It is just the beginnings of love or the endings of it and the beginnings of heartache. I just couldn't quite figure that one out 🤔. Either way, it can be a standalone or a step along Underground path.

Great and interesting take on Alice In Wonderland; well written with interesting characters and a well built world.
This story is a prequel to the Underground series. I enjoyed learning the story of Dorian and Lynne; it is a wonderful story filled with everything you could want … Seelie and UnSeelie, magic and magical creatures, danger and betrayal and of course what would a fae story be without deception. This was a fun short read that filled in a few blanks.
Looking forward to the next book ❣

A take on Alice in Wonderland. This Novella takes you to the Fae world two kingdoms two harts both broken all because of one person. Lynn kept chained to her court a princess of the Seelee will find love and betrayal but not everything is as it seems. Dorian a prince of the UnSeelee may have to marry but he never expected to love his betrothed but there are dark arts conspiring to tear them apart.

I absolutely loved this prequel to the Underground series, learning more about these two characters and how it all began. I don't know if I would have rather read this one first or not. I had many questions as I went through the Underground series about what happened, how, and why, but I'm not sure I would have wanted my questions tempered by this prequel. Sometimes it is nicer to learn as you go. Either way, I so love these characters and their beautiful, tragic story. This is not one to miss.

For those who have read the "Underground" series, this prequel will explain why certain characters are the way they are. Even after reading this story I still don't like Queen Titiania but I understand her a little better. Lynne was a nice character but I prefer Kat(you will understand this if you read the series). And Dorian, I can't wait for the next chapter in his life.

Lynne and Dorian's story
Loved Lynne and Dorian's story . As a prequel it told me a story I so much wanted to know. After reading all the books in the Underground series you can see where it all began . You can also start with this one and than read the rest . But I do recommend you read the whole series . It will give the whole Alice in Wonderland story a different meaning . In my opinion a better one that as a adult I could read over and over again .

I was intrigued and drawn into this book from the very first chapter. I felt such a deep investment in the relationship that was just beginning between of the Seelie Princess and Prince of the UnSeelie Court. I was on edge as the plot unfolded and the unthinkable happened. I can barely wait to read the remaining books in the series and finish Lynne and Dorian's story. A great start to what I am sure will be a fabulous series!

This is the prequel to the Underground Series which I love. I was thrilled to finally read how it all started from the beginning. It definitely sheds new light on the entire story. I would recommend that if you haven't read any of the Underground books to start with this one then read the rest in order. It gives you a different look on the Alice in Wonderland Story. Very well written and worth reading!!

Getting to hear Lynne and Dorian's story was sweet and heartbreaking. Hearing about how happy they are together and then hearing about the horrible things Alice was willing to do to hurt them was just terrible. I loved getting to the very beginning of the story and I can't wait to hear all of it. Alexia did a pretty good job narrating, but there wasn't enough emotion injected into her voice for me.

The start of a new series and the world sounds amazing! I didn't really like Lynne, but she is a product of her upbringing. What did they do to Dorian? He can't stop laughing? I could understand if he became Hatter, but there is already a Hatter. What did she do to him? I really liked Dorian...hope he gets a HEA eventually. He is sweet. His poor mother. In this one, sounds like Alice is a straight-up bitch. Honestly, if her head gets cut off, I am A-OKAY with that mess!

This storyline has Seelie and Unseelie courts in Faerie arranging a marriage to unite the Courts and safeguard Faerie. Our heroine is so sheltered she may as well be a prisoner, while our hero is dashing and could win her heart. There is opposition to this and underhanded maneuvering. The characters are defined and engaging. I found this book to be entertaining.

I so enjoyed this look into Lynne and Dorian's lives. It explained so much and gave me a better understanding of the Underground Series. I would actually recommend that readers start with this book first before reading the first book, just so they get the feel for the atmosphere and get the understanding. The author did an amazing job with this prequel. I volunteered to read this book.

This is a great prequel to the Underground Series. It really offers an interesting perspective on Lynne and Dorian. I loved the series and it was great to learn more about the characters. If you haven't read the books yet, check it out. It will definitely make you want to see what is next for them.

This is the prequel to the underground series and I love how I was able to see the history of Lynne and Dorian. If you have not read this series yet this would be the place to start, if you have read the series you will learn to see things just a little bit different. Not much I can say with out giving spoilers and I refuse to do that!
