A take on Sleeping Beauty, the central character of this tale is Lady Rosamund, who learns that her father intends to marry her off to an elderly earl. Following a riding accident, she pretends to be in a coma hoping to escape the marriage - and instead, awakens the heart of a princely man.
This is the second in the fairytale series by Lynn Collum and what a delight. It is a loose take on Sleeping Beauty. Lady Rose returns home to find her father is about to marry her to a rich old earl. After a tumble out riding, she regains consciousness and realizes if she pretends a comma, the earl might go away. Only the new butler Sterling catches her sneaking round the manor. There to find a stolen chalice, Sterling has his hands full hunting for his family's missing heirloom and keeping Rose out of trouble.
