All the books say that she should be living happily ever after. But as Aurora understands all too well, the truth is nothing like the fairy tale.Her family is long dead. Her "true love" is a kind stranger. And her whole life has been planned out by political foes while she slept.As Aurora struggles to make sense of her new world, she begins to fear that the curse has left its mark on her, a fiery and dangerous thing that might be as wicked as the witch who once ensnared her. With her wedding day drawing near, Aurora must make the ultimate decision on how to save her kingdom: marry the prince or run.

⭐⭐⭐ This book was okay in my opinion. It was like good enough to read when you are bored and just want a twist on a classic fairytale but it wasn't amazing. I feel like I really wanted more out of this story and the romance just wasn't what I expected as far as the characters connections. I will read the sequel to it just because I did like how it ended!

While #SleepingBeauty is my favorite fairytale, this isn‘t my favorite re-telling of it... But despite its slow start, once it moves into its own- with political intrigue and more magic and fun, I found I couldn‘t put it down! I hadn‘t planned on reading the sequel but a late night impulse buy took over!! 🤣🤣🤣

Day 8 🍂 Feminist Friday: I really love how these books highlight the fact that you are in charge of how your story unfolds, no one else #awesomeautumnbooks
