Story
Heiress Daphne Ryan is uncertain about spending a week at the sprawling country estate of the family of her sister’s boyfriend. For starters, she doesn’t get along with her sister. Then there’s the fact his family is old, wealthy aristocracy, and Daphne’s from brash, new American money. Mostly, it’s that everyone knows Duncroft House is haunted by the ghost of a 1920s film star who died there. Deemed an accident, for nearly a century, people are sure it was murder.

Story
When Lily Jacobs was born, she inherited Fazire - a genie. Her family had three wishes and they'd only ever used one so Fazire was stuck in the human world. This worked since he'd become a member of the family anyway. Even with a genie, Lily's young life wasn't perfect. To escape the kids making her miserable at school, Lily buried herself in romance novels. One day, when the teasing was just too much, she used one of her wishes.
Publisher's Summary
Circe Quinn, the office manager of a moving company, goes to sleep at home and wakes up in a corral filled with women wearing sacrificial virgin attire—and she’s one of them.
She figures this is not good and soon finds she’s not having a wild dream; she’s living a frightening nightmare. She’s been transported to a barren land populated by a primitive people, where 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. 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, more importantly, how to get home.
Facing challenge after challenge, Circe finds her footing as Queen of the brutal Korwahk Horde and wife to its King.
Then she finds herself falling in love with this primitive land, its people and especially their savage leader.

Non-Earth Warrior Claims 21st Century Earth-Woman
This story is intwined in two languages and lives cultural diversity. If you appreciate the drama you anticipate finding in the clash of worlds and cultures, let alone the male and female component, and you can accept that there will be scenes that a Western 21st Century Woman would never tolerate. The two main characters, Circe and Lahn connect, disconnect and proceed to build an impossible life together.
For people who love language, the ultimate power of words, in any language, then the language differences and challenges in this story will particularly intrigue and appeal to you.
This novel has heart and humor as well as tragedy and triumph and that is what makes it a journey to enjoy.
If you don't approve of people writing about real wrongs, or talking about the shocking and confronting, then you won't like this story at all. But if you can handle real; true to time and context, no matter how unpleasant, you will appreciate that real can sometimes be wonderful too, even in fantasyland.
This story has something for a wide range of audiences. If you like to critique an author and find things to be appalled at, you will definitely find it in this novel. However, if you have enjoyed Kristen Ashley's writing, then you will find the same patterns in this text, raw honesty, so honest it hurts, so confronting it could slam into some of your own bias and this also makes it so very believable. And then there is humor, unexpected and wonderful and woven strongly to a context that is passionately raw, and so very typical of Kristen Ashley's writing.

Amazing Story
This is the second in Kristen Ashley's Fantasyland series. I loved the first book but I love this one even more. If you don't know, this is a parallel Universe to ours where everyone from here has a twin, except those whose are very evil, there is only one then. This parallel Universe is like a Medievil world with Magic, Dragons and elves. Though in this story there there are no Dragons and Elves in this Land.
This land have a very Primitive People. At a guess she has done a lot of research into primitive tribes and their different customs and traditions. Because the world and Tribe she wove was so wonderfully detailed. To me they are a cross between Viking and Bedouin. An amazing amount of thought went into this book. She even developed a language for her tribe. This time, the world she wove was very brutal but very beautiful. I don't mean the scenery I mean the people of the Suh Tunak, the savage beauty of their life and customs Is amazing. The story is very balanced and well thought out from both sides. The wives and their warrior husbands. Honestly this is a wonderful book, to me it's her best book. That's saying a lot, she has many wonderful books and I have them all.

still enjoyable despite rape scene
So whilst I enjoyed the story, I didn't understand why in this era you would write such a rape culture into a book.
I was glad when it got past that stage but it's very confronting after the first book in the series.
still the love story between Circe and Lahn was enjoyable after all that though complicated.

Just what I was looking for.
I've been looking for a story exactly like this! I am so glad I found it. To be honest the beginning was intense but as the story progressed I found myself loving and investing in the characters. Tillie Hooper was a very good narrator and I enjoyed her reading if this tale. I'm very glad I found this book.

awful trash, don't read this!
the first book in the Fantasyland series was okay, I enjoyed most of it, but the male characters in Ashley's novels are all knowing, manipulative, coax their women to sleep with them and (actually rape them too -in this particular novel anyway), this novel is blatant copyright of GoT relationship between Daenerys Targaryen and Khal Drogo, with none of Daenerys kickbutt fight back attitude and change the way things are done in a primitive culture.
This novel is deplorable and I'm not even talking about the copyright issue, that's George RR Martins problem, the author perpetuating rape culture is absolutely abhorrent. Don't read this trash. I mad eit to chapter 9 and decided I'd cleanse my Pallette with The Gun Slinger Chronicle by Stephen King... you know... a real writer, with actual talent. go find my review on good reads, it had much more detail.

A repeat of the first!
I only got 2 hrs into this book and found its basically a remake of the first one but with a different setting and characters.
The writing is terrible the narration sounds exactly the same as the first book even though the main characters are completely different people, no change in voices or accents. Very disappointed and definitely not worth money.
