Elise has had a rough life. Her mother has some secrets that she reveals some on her death bed. She meets Marcus , and they drop her off at her aunt's house. She later gets a job at the castle. She slowly works her way up with her position .
Elise is telling this all to her grand daughter. Elise ends up working for the queen , and there is an evil sister . There is a sleeping disease and many things that are like the original Sleeping Beauty. Elise learns and also falls in love during this time. She has a couple romances , and she does end up marrying someone.
This book was a slow read. I could see many things like the original Sleeping Beauty. There is a twist at the end . I enjoyed learning about life in the castle , but I was hoping for more romance.
Book Review= C
