Red Riding Hood (Down The Rabbit Hole) is an anthology by a selection of brilliant authors. They have written a collection of amazing stories, all different versions of a well known classic.
This is the first time I have ever read a collection like this - effectively the same story told in multiple different ways. I honestly didn’t expect to like it at all, there are only so many times you can read the same story after-all. And yet each of these books were so unique that I enjoyed every single one of them.
I had read most of these authors before but it was nice to discover a couple of new ones. I very much enjoyed this anthology and can’t wait to read more of their individual works.

River Runs Red by Kay Elle Parker

This book gives a whole new twist to Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf!
River had a terrible experience the last time she was with them and now she has to go to their den again, and she really doesn't want to.
This story was steamy and I could not stop reading it! The characters were so well put together and the storyline was incredible.
I can't wait for the next part of this book!

The Wolves Den by Laci Paige

That was such a hot and unexpected take on Red Riding Hood and the Wolf. This story made me blush. I loved it!

I enjoyed watching every story unfold in different ways in a unique perspective of the Red Riding Hood. Each story has its own twists full of mystery or romance or unexpected twists and turns leaving you clinging for an unpredictable ride down the rabbit hole. Reading these are worth the read to keep you entertained for chapters and chapters of fun. Pick up this book and you might re-read it just for the hell of it.

Red Riding Hood (Down the Rabbit Hole) Anthology has contributions from Autumn Sand (Author), Amy Allen (Author), CeeCee Elaine (Author), D.A. Stein (Author), Darlene Tallman (Author), Jess Bagnall (Author), Kay Elle Parker (Author), Laci Paige (Author), Lia Fairchild (Author), Lorah Jaiyn (Author). In these stories there is something for everyone and the genre they like to read. The stories include everything from romance, reverse harem, paranormal, and horror to name a few. A few of the authors were familiar to me while others were something new. These are quick stories and entertaining to read.
Ruby by Autumn Sand is romantic and inspiring all at once. Ruby has a lot of challenges in her life and still has so much strength to keep going. I really enjoyed this character and her story.
Cloaked by Lia Fairchild was a fantastic up to date retelling of Red Riding Hood. The main characters of Vanessa and Luke are fun to read. This is a fast paced story that I read in one sitting and left me wanting more.

Red Riding Hood (Down the Rabbit Hole)
Anthology
5 stars

When I first saw this anthology I was intrigued, I love these adult retellings of fairy tales so I was looking forward to that but for all of them to be of Red Riding Hood I wasn’t so sure but I have to say they were all great reads! I can’t believe they are all based on the same story but every single on is different! When I looked down the list of authors who feature in the anthology I was excited to see one of my favourites, Autumn Sand, along with some I have read books by and some who were new to me!

Ruby by Autumn Sand
In this author’s true style I was hooked into the story straight away – it was romantic, sensual – everything I would expect from her! I really liked Ruby, her character came alive as the author did an amazing job with her characters visualisation – I felt like I was right there at times in the story. I was in awe of Ruby at times, she had so much going in her life both health wise and in relationship but she had a strength that I admired. This was probably my favourite story out of the anthology.

Cloaked by Lia Fairchild
I love Ms Fairchild’s work so I was excited to see how she would retell Red Riding Hood. I loved the romance/thriller genre for this story and it was a really exciting read! The characters were well thought out and I really enjoyed the story. It was fast paced and thrilling. There were some good twists and turns with Vanessa (Eva) and Luke! This was definitely a favourite of mine in the anthology.

This is a nice collection of stories. They are fun because they all have a common theme running through them. They have genres from horror to erotica and others in between. Some of these were enjoyable. A few of them seemed a bit short and I wasn’t a big fan of the insta-love.

Little Red’s by Darlene Tallman was a favorite. Wolf packs are a story i enjoy and this one filled that void. The characters were believable and the story cute.

Cloaked by Lia Fairchild really drew me in and was very inventive. I liked the characters and enjoyed the twists and turns. I really could have read this one over again.

A few others were Ruby by Autumn Sand and River Runs Red by Kay Elle Parker. I liked them...they were pretty sexy. I just wish there was more to each of them.

Down the Rabbit Hole has twelve authors telling the same story but with their version. One thing with Anthologies is that you can find the authors you are familiar with and new authors to start reading. I have read two of the authors so far. Ruby by Autumn Sand and Cloaked by Lia Fairchild. Ruby by Autumn Sand was a sensual story about temptation. Ruby has some challenges in her life. She needs to find her strength to keep her life moving forward. Cloaked by Lia Fairchild is different than Ruby but I really liked this story. Cloaked has romance and thriller in her story. The main characters are Vanessa and Luke. This story moves at a fast pace. I did have to reread parts because I wanted to make sure that I was reading it correctly. This story has more of the Red Riding Hood story than Ruby. I was very impressed with Lia Fairchild that I cannot wait to read more by her. Overall I recommend reading these stories and find your favorite one.

This is a great collection of short stories written by some great authors. Each author has written their version of Red Riding Hood. Each one is different, each one will have you turning pages fast. My favorite is by Autumn Sand - Ruby. This is a creative story about hope, love, betrayal and second chances. I won’t say too much other than it was an awesome story. What happens when you lose everything only to have something so much stronger come into your life? I highly recommend this anthology, it was worth picking it up. I found some new authors as well as a few favorites and I think you will too.

This was a great story. The heroine Ruby was a nice normal person feelings and problems. This story was great for anyone who has a physical or emotional problem because it gives the hope that love is possible. Autumn Sand wrote a lovely story and she has a bright future. I look forward to reading more.
The other stories in this anthology are good as well. Some of them are not for the faint of heart. Read and enjoy
