I really enjoyed this book. The main characters are sisters who secretly get to escape their home in Transylvania once a month and enter the magical world of the Wildwood. It had plenty of adventure, fantasy and a perfect amount of romance. This book is up for the 2009 Beehive Awards in the young adult category. (The Beehive Award is from the Children's Literature Association of Utah.)
Here is a little bit about it from the author's web site.
When her father falls ill and must leave their forest home over the winter, Jena and her oldest sister Tati are left in charge. All goes well until a tragic accident allows their over bearing cousin to take control. The appearance of a mysterious young man in a black coat divides sister from sister, and suddenly Jena finds herself fighting to save all she holds dear. With her constant companion Gogu by her side, she must venture to realms dark and perilous in her quest to preserve, not just those she loves, but her own independence as well.
