AWAKEN is the second book in the Romance a Medieval Fairytale series.  Each will stand alone as a complete retelling of our childhood favorites.  AWAKEN is a retelling of Sleeping Beauty.

 

I was so excited to get this book and absolutely was not disappointed.  Demelza Carlton has done it again!  AWAKEN is a perfect re-telling of Sleeping Beauty with wonderfully imaginative additions that give the tale more life than it ever had before.  Let’s face it; Sleeping Beauty has probably always been one of the most vapid of the princesses, a pretty shell waiting for her prince to make his entrance.  Now she has heart, personality, and she is allowed to grow in this fantastic re-telling of the classic love fantasy.  She even has a little magic!

 

The first chapter of DANCE, a retelling of Cinderella, was at the end of the file for AWAKEN and I loved it as well.  I’m looking forward to many more fairy-tales retold by the talented Demelza Carlton.
