NATIONAL BESTSELLER • Sleeping Beauty meets Indiana Jones in this thrilling gender-swapping fairytale retelling, where two kickass heroines are ready to save a cursed prince and his kingdom with true love’s kiss.“An enchanting read for fans of fairy-tale romance and girls with battle axes.”—Kirkus Reviews“This gender-flipped retelling effortlessly melds romance, adventure, and fantasy. Highly recommended.”—School Library Journal, starred reviewSome curses are meant to be broken.Fi is a bookish treasure hunter with a knack for ruins and riddles who definitely doesn’t believe in true love. Shane is a tough-as-dirt warrior who likes cracking skulls, pretty girls, and doing things her own way. Briar Rose is a prince under a sleeping curse who’s been waiting a hundred years for the kiss that will wake him. Cursed princes are nothing but ancient history to Fi—until she pricks her finger on a bone spindle while exploring a long-lost ruin. Now she’s stuck with the spirit of Briar Rose until she and Shane can break the century-old curse on his kingdom. Dark magic, Witch Hunters, and bad exes all stand in her way—not to mention a mysterious Witch who might wind up stealing Shane’s heart along with whatever else she’s after. But nothing scares Fi more than the possibility of falling in love with Briar Rose.
