Circe Quinn goes to sleep at home and wakes up in a corral filled with women wearing sacrificial virgin attire―and she is one of them. She soon finds out that she’s not having a wild dream, she’s living a frightening nightmare where she’s been transported to a barren land populated by a primitive people and in short order, she’s installed very unwillingly on her white throne of horns as their Queen.
Dax Lahn is the king of Suh Tunak, The Horde of the nation of Korwahk and with one look at Circe, he knows she will be his bride and together they will start The Golden Dynasty of legend.
Circe and Lahn are separated by language, culture and the small fact she’s from a parallel universe and has no idea how she got there or how to get home. But facing challenge after challenge, Circe finds her footing as Queen of the brutal Korwahk Horde and wife to its King, then she makes friends then she finds herself falling in love with this primitive land, its people and especially their savage leader.
What a ride!! Lord have mercy! I thought this book was going to give me a heart attack. Talk about emotional turmoil. It took me several days and a re-read to get over all that is the “Golden Dynasty”. Kristen Ashley has done something really special with this book. She proved my husband’s case that I am, on occasion, totally whacked!
I wish I could wipe my memory clean and re-read it again and again! VERY MINOR SPOILERS BELOW:
OMG!! SO FREAKING GOOD! Didn’t think anything could be better than book 1, BUT this was!
