Description

Sleeping Beauty meets Once Upon A Broken Heart in this fairytale retelling about love and finding yourself. But the heroine isn’t the princess, it’s one of her royal guards.

He hates mortals. She defends them.

Twenty-year-old Mira is training to be a Keeper of the Wards, a secret society within the mortal guard. With it comes magic, but she has to earn it first. She's on a quest to prove herself when the powerful enemy queen—with a penchant for tarot—threatens the princess and the alliance her kingdom so desperately needs. Powerless against the magic and running out of time, Mira's only hope is to deal with the threat head-on.

When Mira confronts an enemy breaching the kingdom’s wards, she’s captured by the Raven—the ruthless and enigmatic second-in-command to the enemy queen. When secrets unravel, loyalty will be tested, and enemies will become unlikely allies. Together, they must stop the enemy queen’s twisted arcana magic from destroying the realms, but it will force Mira to face her deepest fears.

Will Mira accept who she truly is or will the realms fall to darkness?

If you want an enemies-to-lovers slow burn romance with a raven-shifting love interest, then this fairytale fantasy romance is for you.

NOTE: This book is upper YA/new adult featuring some mature situations and adult language. The romance is slow burn with some steam.

What a fun retelling of a classic fairytale! Even though this fantasy retelling of sleeping beauty was low in spice, it was high in fun. The pacing was great in that in kept my attention going. I admit I stayed up way too late reading. I really like how the author strings us along with little tidbits of info we need to know and doesn't give it all to us in one book. I definitely can't wait for the next one. I also really liked how Mira wasn't the typical FMC in that she stumbles through the book while finding herself and her purpose. It's a great journey watching her grow and confront her previous biases. If you like a good slow burn, enemies that team up to stop an evil queen then this book is for you.
