The Wicker Palace

In a world where love isn’t as perfect as romantic stories portray it, this uncompromising love story offers a refreshing dose of reality—via dark fantasy inspired by classic tales such as Alice in Wonderland, The Wizard of Oz, and Hans Christian Andersen’s The Little Mermaid.

Sometimes it takes a little magic to jar us out of the ruts we end up in. And in this one-of-a-kind romantic fantasy, Morgan Juarez’s rude awakening comes in the form of a strange dream that finds her wandering the eerie halls of the Wicker Palace hotel.

On the outside, Morgan is a twenty-five-year-old woman stuck in a dead-end job as a waitress at the funky restaurant in the old hotel. But on the inside, she’s been battling her past…until one night, when she finally comes to a breaking point. In a dream, she’s led on a fantastical journey by a cast of curious characters that give her the courage to follow her life’s dreams.

The Wicker Palace is a story about real people—people from the ghetto who don’t have much—people living on the edge, tattooed rock-and-rollers, rebels, and outcasts—that will make you believe in magic again.
