The Golden Dynasty by Kristen Ashley

The Golden Dynasty (Fantasyland, #2)

by Kristen Ashley

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.

Reread- 9/8/13- 9/10/13. Sigh. Love love love.


SERIOUSLY???!!!! This book is so frick fracking epic that I don't even know how to express myself.
I really truly thought I could not love Kristen Ashley more. I was WRONG....way wrong. I loved the 1st book and I knew there were aspects of this book that I would not like and yes it was hard to read at first. But I am here to say that this was an epic love story...for me. Just between being from different world, the language barrier and culture differences.... and they still were just the most fantastic thing ever for me. Circe and Lahn are just an incredible story- how she challenged him to change things in his kingdom, how he changed things within himself for her. How she worked to understand his world for him.
This book just killed me....crying before it ended- when the bottom fell out for Circe and then I cried tears of happiness at the end. I am so looking forward to more in this series.... so freaking much.
