A Sleeping Beauty story
MY REVIEW
A story that takes place at the same world as Endgame and Masterpiece.
Jessica drives away from the horrible father of her child before he finds her and takes the infant away.
Before she sleeps at the wheel, the local sheriff stops her and orders her to sleep at the local prison in order not to cause an accident and hurt herself and her baby. Scared and desperate Jessica follows sheriff Finn. Finn may not be Prince Charming, but he will give her a kiss and wake her up.
I need to touch and be touched, to know that my worth isn't down the drain alongside the rest of my sad little life in Tanglewood. But I can't bother him with that. He's my jailer and my caretaker, not my lover. He doesn't need to be bothered with this, with me.
He catches my wrist as I move to leave, so quick I can only gasp.
"Stay," he murmurs.
If you have read 'The King' by the same author, you will probably remember Penny's friend, Jessica and the only love of her life i.e. her son Ky.
I was pleasantly surprised with the beginning of her love story with Fynn. This is one of the nicest adaptations that I have read on the fairytale of sleeping beauty.
I really hope that this the prologue of another great full-length book by the author.
