North Carolina 1851 Deep in the mountains of North Carolina lives a branch of the Cherokee nation that no white man had been able to remove. They could come and go like the wind. They were rumored to be ghosts and called the 'Ghost Tribe' by those that knew of them. They were feared by all who lived in those mountainous lands except for one. Deniah Williams is the one person who does not fear them. And her reason? Gray Skies. He saved her life as children and has been her friend since that day. She knows there is something unique about her friend and his people and yet she asks no questions. She has trust in him and for her that's enough. But when Deniah's father learns of her friendship with a monstrous savage of the ghost tribe he is determined to protect her. And he knows just how to do so. He must find her a suitable husband and move his daughter to the northeast and away from the danger he is sure she faces. But things do not go as planned. When Gray Skies learns of the danger that Deniah faces he knows he must save her. Going against the wishes of his tribe, Gray Skies leaves to rescue the woman who has his heart. A fiery passion ignites between them and a love stronger than any love before ties their souls together. But hatred and revenge threaten to tear them apart. Join Gray Skies and Deniah as they fight for their love, for each other and for peace among their people.

Chessa is far from what any descent Cheshire Cat is. While the majority of her species are friendly, talkative, and pleasant, she is shy, short tempered, stubborn, and disagreeable. Due to those reasons, her mother's dying wish was for her to marry a man from Wonderland. Bachelors, sadly, were few in number and fewer want anything to do with the unpleasant little Cheshire Cat, Chessa. Only one would rise to the challenge- the Mad Hatter who only because he wanted away to forget the woman he loved and lost, Alice Kingsley, who left from Wonderland a year previous. After hearing a conversation held between her brother, Chess, and the Hatter, Chessa's mind is set. She has to escape the confines of Wonderland and find Alice. Then she will be free from the unwanted marriage. Enlisting the best Alice finder in Wonderland, the White Rabbit, Chessa finds her way to the real world and begins her search for the famous Alice, completely unaware of her brother desperately trying to find a way to communicate with her to warn her of what may happen if she remains away from home to long... The clock is ticking as Chessa and the White Rabbit scour the English country side and city, trying to locate the wanted woman while keeping their secret origin hidden ... but what if along the way, Chessa meets a rather unusual man who becomes infatuated with her oddities and lovely 'pet rabbit' and join them on the hunt. And more importantly, what happens when she finds Alice, only to discover she must leave behind her home or the man she is beginning to love... forever?
