How to Wake a Sleeping Princess - Spicy Edition

A cozy fantasy romantic retelling of Sleeping Beauty.

When the royal nursemaids keep falling asleep while holding baby Princess Daphne, the court finds it charming.

Until they realize she's cursed.

By her eighteenth birthday, anyone who comes within ten paces of Daphne collapses into a deep sleep. Self-exiled to a lonely tower, she resigns herself to a life of occasional correspondence, books, and distant dreams.

Then he arrives.

The son of the fairy who cursed her. He claims that he can break the spell. His price?

If Daphne falls in love with him, she can never tell him.

It sounds like an easy promise—until it isn’t. Because some curses are easier to bear than their breaking.

And if freedom means losing him, is it worth waking up at all?

How to Wake a Sleeping Princess is a funny, lighthearted, cozy-fantasy romance with spice and a happily-ever-after.
