In a kingdom far, far away, a handsome prince sets out to find a lost castle, only to discover a city slumbering under a terrible curse, and a beautiful princess who can only be woken by a true love’s kiss.
Well, not quite. The dashing Prince Charming? The innocent Sleeping Beauty? A curse waiting to be broken? Happily ever after?
In Sarah Pinborough’s wicked retelling of the classic tale, nothing is quite as you remember it…
