Publisher's summary

She’s hounded from every side by treacherous elements and foes, but her greatest enemy lies within.

In the mountains near France, the medieval Princess Elyce is being forced to marry, thus forming an alliance that will enrich her father but enslave her kingdom. Instead, she chooses to feign her death and flee to Prague to beg King Wenceslaus to help save her people.

In England, the young knight Sir Gerard has a vision from God instructing him to help Elyce on her quest. When he arrives to find she has been near death for days, he manages to revive her. However, thinking the stranger was trying to kiss her, the princess immediately distrusts him. But her desperate situation forces her to accept his aid.

Pursued by her enemy’s guards over mountainous terrain, they must also battle the deadly winter elements. Her greatest challenge may be to overcome the voices of disapproval and accusation from her childhood. Will her emotions lead her into her true identity, or will they undermine her ability to work with Gerard and to save her people, who desperately need her help?

In this dazzling and romantic story, New York Times bestselling author Melanie Dickerson takes the classic Sleeping Beauty fairy tale to satisfying new heights.

“When it comes to happily-ever-afters, Melanie Dickerson is the undisputed queen.” —Julie Lessman, award-winning author

Love all of her books

Can’t wait till a new series comes out! The reading is always exciting with never slow boring moments and not overly dramatic that it isn’t realistic. Jude Mason’s voice is one of my favorites.

Thrilling, Relatable, Timeless Romance

The kind of adventure you crave! An independent, courageous and oh so relatable princess, a fiercely brave yet caring knight, and an impossible quest that forces them to trust each other and most importantly trust God. Not to mention a timeless romance! I love how Melanie Dickerson takes the classic fairy tales you grew up on and spins them in new and exciting ways that have you on the edge of your seat chapter after chapter, and this one did not disappoint! It’s so good, and so worth it!!! Highly Recommend!

Very good story

Why do we doubt ourselves so much? Love is so hard to expose. Story line was creative and interesting. Challenging time for Women, being seen as a possession rather than a person of independence.
