Waking Beauty
What happens to the fairy tale when the Princess decides she doesn’t want to play the part?
In a kingdom where Spring has not bloomed for ten years, Andromeda, ex-Princess and newly awakened Witch, follows a mysterious glimmering road towards the peak of a mountain. She is on a quest to find love; more specifically, to find Talen, the female bodyguard who stole her heart two years before.
But Andromeda soon learns that Talen has come to the mountain in pursuit of a quest of her own. She has sworn she will kill the Dragon who lives on the mountain’s peak, and if she fails she will pay with her life.
With an unbreakable fate between them, Andromeda will need all her magical power to claw back her own and Talen’s future from a world slipping inexorably towards never-ending Winter and death.
