Wildest Dreams

Seoafin Wilde, called Finnie, grows up on her parents' rule that life is for living and every adventure is worth chasing. They die in a plane crash when she is fifteen, and she carries the lesson with her into adulthood.

Then she learns of a parallel universe where each person has a double. She tracks down a witch able to transport her there, hoping to see her parents again and have the adventure of her life. Almost as soon as she arrives in Lunwyn, a snowbound land, she realises her twin has tricked her. Within a short time she is walking down the aisle to marry The Drakkar.

Finnie is thrown into hostile circumstances, but she has plenty of practice at survival (an elephant stampede is among the things she has lived through). She meets each challenge and starts to make the adventure her own.

Her new husband, Frey Drakkar, has expected to wed Princess Sjofn, a woman he intensely dislikes. He discovers that his bride is a different woman, a free spirit with the same hunger for adventure as his own, and that she is his destiny. Without telling her, he orders her bound to his frozen world for good.

The book is a fantasy romance with a parallel-world setup, a forced marriage and a lively, adventurous heroine. The tone is playful, with humor running through the peril.
