I went to her, faster than lightning, desperate to taste her kiss.

She had no idea what I was willing to do, who I used to be, and what I was capable of when it came to protecting those I loved. She had no idea the lengths Iโd go to to give her a happy ever after. My girl had no idea at all.
Lita T’s Review: 4 Stars
The Only Exception by L.J. Stock & Victoria L. James is a voyage back to Wonderland. My first trip was over 5 years ago. Izzy was much younger then. Now in her 30’s she and her bestfriend/ sister from another mother Paris have gone through a lot. Now they are on the other side. Ethan a blast from her past has come back into her life. He has wanted Izzy for years but because of his own demons he never acted on his desires. The time seems to be right for them to shoot his shot. Reading the previous Wonderland books is not necessary but you would want to just because you really get to know the backstories of the characters. The other stories are really good and you will not be disappointed. I enjoyed this story.The sexual tension and energy between Izzy and Ethan is hot hot hot!!!!! I love these two characters as well as the others. Izzy and Ethan’s journey to their happy ending was one of pain and hurt. It was also a journey with intrigue. I loved going back to Wonderland and would love to reread the previous books. 4 star read for me.
Authors’ Bios
ย
Victoria L. Jamesย is a teenage girl stuck inside a thirty-something-year-oldโs body. A Corona and nacho appreciator with a ridiculous obsession for all things Rocky Balboa, she currently lives in Yorkshire, England, with her husband and two baby boys. Having had a strong passion for words and stories going as far back as she can remember, she credits her love of literature to her Grandma Bess who taught her that you donโt need a lot of money to travel to different worlds, experience new places, and live a thousand lives.
ย
L.J. Stockย has always lived in a world of her own, continuously lost in her imagination. Whether in the forests that backed up to her home in Aberdeen when sheย was only six years old, the unique landscape of Singapore she discovered at eight, or the rolling woodlands that rolled up to Dartmoor during her teen years, there have always been new worlds to explore.
Now an adult living in Houston, Texas, there’s more concrete in the jungle surrounding her, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t stories to tell. She now has too many. When she’s not writing, Louise can be found hanging out with her family, crazy pup, or at the computer lost in her creativity of her successful graphic design business, L.J. Designs.
