Wildest Dreams by Kristen Ashley
5.0

This is such a good story.
Finnie changes places with her 'twin' in a parallel universe. Only when she arrives she is escorted by her parents who don't seem to be very pleased with her to her wedding. The reason she went on this adventure is to spend time with her 'twin's parents as her own died and she desperately misses them.

Frey is the brooding groom who is not impressed with his upcoming wedding, he has good reason, which is revealed.

Frey is by no means the perfect Hero, he makes some really huge mistakes.
But the Hero's in this series, all have a position of authority and have an arrogance that means at times they make decisions for others based on the good of their country and legacy without thinking how it will affect that person, esp Finnie.
The ex drama situation in particular comes back to bite him in a huge way but his devotion to his 'wee Finnie'is absolute.

The story is funny and very heartfelt.

There is ex drama of sorts, a woman from his past causes problems.
No intimate scenes with anyone other than the Hero and heroine.
No cheating, though it's complicated to explain but there is an accusation of cheating, though technically the accusation doesn't hold weight, due to the parallel universe issues but it causes problems for the couple.
Also after a huge argument he threatens to go and spend time with another woman but it is later revealed he doesn't, though at the time Finnie thinks he has cheated.
Also the scene is set for the other books which will follow and we meet or hear about some of the people that will be in them.

New world, culture customs developed, it is a bit too detailed, curtains, furniture, etc at the start but once you move on from that point the story really picks up.


HFN.
Though the series has a couple per book, there is a main enemy storyline thread that runs through the series and updates of previous characters appear in each book.
It's not essential to read all the books but you may have spoilers as there are hints of events that affect other couples in each book.
