Description
Not your average Sleeping Beauty retelling.
Rescuing a stranger from her poisoned sleep is one thing, but shouldering the weight of a kingdom and a hundred doubts and fears is another.
Kissing an apparently dead maiden was not what young king Gervaise had planned for the day. Nor was nursing her back to health and acting as her impromptu protector. Forced to face and counter danger for the first time in his life, Gervaise realizes he lacks the heroism he ought to have.
As the real source of the threat against his patient comes to light, the king-turned-doctor finds himself in the sole position to thwart an ambitious new ruler. But how can he save a kingdom that doesn't believe it needs saving? And how can a coward such as he win the day with only a handful of men?
Written in a historical fantasy style reminiscent of Ever After, this Christian reimagining of the tale of Sleeping Beauty is sure to delight the young at heart with a taste for adventure.

"I was blown away at how charming this book was... I loved seeing the story of Sleeping Beauty from the prince's side." ~ J.
