Cherished by the Gargoyle: A Sleeping Beauty Retelling (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781642534689)

Inspired by Sleeping Beauty, a romantic fairy tale retelling...

All my life, I've lived in a quiet village, raised by three Fae sisters who adopted me shortly after my birth. My happiest moments have always included Thalric-the Gargoyle who's been my best friend and my secret love since childhood.

But the peaceful life I've known shatters when I learn I'm not a simple villager at all, but a hidden princess, concealed by my Fae guardians to protect me from a deadly curse. And Thalric is destined to become my sworn guard, bound by oath and forbidden from ever loving me.

Now, tied to duty and betrothed to a stranger, my future is no longer my own. Yet as dark magic stirs and time begins to slip away, Thalric faces an impossible choice-the sacred vows he was born to uphold, or the forbidden love we've silently nurtured for years.

As the curse tightens its hold, I must decide if I'm brave enough to risk it all... or lose Thalric forever.

**Spicy content. Not a dark romance.**

Each book in the Once Upon a Fairy Tale Romance series is a standalone featuring a different couple.
