BriarA Sleeping Beauty Dark Fairy Tale Retelling

Fifth in the Happily Never After Series of dark fairy tale retellings…

Awakened by a kiss, by not by the prince I’d hoped for…

My name is Briar, otherwise known as Sleeping Beauty.

When I wake from a kiss, the prince isn’t the man I expect.

Instead of a knight in shining armor, Prince Payne is a cursed vampire responsible for killing my entire family!

And it’s not as though Prince Payne wants to be here any more than I want him to—he was forced into waking me by my fairy godmother, Maura LeChance.

Maura then forces Payne to protect me on an upcoming journey. If he refuses, he’ll never have his vampire curse removed.

Begrudgingly, he agrees and our journey begins…

Once we leave the castle and embark on our mysterious voyage, I learn I can raise the dead.

Shortly after discovering this new ability, I raise two dragons, Nouille and Veseo—both as hot-blooded and sexy as they were when alive.

But my necromantic abilities come at a cost—my own life.

I keep dying, and the only way to stop me from dying is to bond to Payne, someone I absolutely detest.

The choice is clear: either bond myself to the man who destroyed my family or suffer the consequences.

And what will that mean for my two dragon suitors?
