This is book 3 in the Princess series by Hines but it definitely can be read as a standalone. This book revolves around the true story behind Sleeping Beauty and a past she has felt watching her from the shadows. After facing Rumpelstiltskin and bringing countless children back to their families, Snow, Danielle and Talia are ready to relax. What they wind up facing is one of the most feared assassins they've ever known. Little Red Riding Hood is on the hunt for Danielle but why would Roudette have been hired to kill her? As they investigate further they come to realize that what is happening is all a distraction to lure Talia into the open.
Once upon a time a Princess was put under a sleeping spell and many Princes attempted to save her but only one succeeded. But he did not save her as told in the fairy tales. He slew her family, took over her lands, and used the deep sleep she was in against her. Only the birth of her children awoke her and she slew him for his crimes. But one woman's justice was the beginning of a vendetta for another and now there are others who see this conflict as the perfect staging ground for a new world order. In a time of religious strive where the protectors of her people are misleading and being mislead Princess Talia Malak-el-Dahshat must decide whether to return to everything she lost and reclaim it or stay with the ones who helped her to rebuild her life all those years ago. Either way, this is not the Sleeping Beauty you grew up with and you'll be thankful for it.
