The princess isn't supposed to fall for an evil sorceress. In this darkly magical retelling of Sleeping Beauty, true love is far more complex than a simple fairy tale. Once upon a time, a wicked fairy cursed a line of princesses to die, with the curse only breakable by true love's kiss. You've heard this before—the handsome prince and the happily-ever-after. But who truly cares about the fate of the princesses? I thought I didn't, until I met Princess Aurora, the last heir to the throne and the future queen her realm desperately needs. She sees beyond my identity as the Dark Grace, feared for the dark magic within me. Aurora encourages me to embrace my gifts and claims to care for me, despite the power that cursed her in the first place. With less than a year until her curse takes effect, any hope for a future with her is fading—and she refuses to kiss another insipid prince. I want to help her. If my power caused her curse, maybe it can also lift it. Together, we could create a new reality. But we all know how this story goes: Aurora is the beautiful princess, and I am the villain.
