This should not be the first fantasyland KA book you pick up; read Wildest Dreams first (or any of the others) - the author does a good job of warning you about the disturbing Wife Hunt that begins this book.  After getting hooked on Kristen Ashley's Dream Man, Chaos, Colorado, 'Burg series I was not inclined to pick up the Fantasyland series;  This author's brain and imagination is so fascinating - I think she will try anything.  The concept in Fantasyland is that our earth has an alternate universe with our twins on it.  The twins have different fates, timelines, personalities - but look the same.  While that universe has a desert, ice, forest, mountains, meadows, oceans, it also has dragons, elves, witches, talking animals (women can hear small ones; men larger ones).  I read this one last in the Fantasyland series and even though the climax (no pun intended) of the series is actually in the Broken Dove, I was glad I read Golden Dynasty last.  If I hadn't been so invested in the series - and so warned by the other books about this one - I wouldnt have gotten past the "violation" of the heroine in the beginning.  Hard to accept this alpha male.  Even after finishing and understanding the reasons for the way the males of this world work, not sure I wanted to stay there.  And the heroine takes some convincing too.
