About the Book
Fi is a treasure hunter under a dark curse. Shinobu is a tough-as-dirt warrior out to prove herself. While searching a trap-filled ruin, Fi pricks her finger on a bone spindle and awakens the spirit of Briar Rose. Fi never wanted a partner. Now she’s stuck with two of them: a kickass girl mercenary falling hard for a wicked witch, and a sleeping prince who’s waited a century for a kiss. Vicious Witch Hunters, perilous dark magic, and treacherous exes stand in their way. A genderflipped Sleeping Beauty retelling with ruins, riddles, battle axes, and snark.
Critical Praise
"One day somebody will say something nice about this book and I will be over the moon and I will put it right here and then hopefully the book will be popular!" —Hopeless Dreamer
"Then spurred to review it by the first amazing review another one will come in!" —Hopeless Dreamer Cont.
"And finally there will be an exceptionally long quote but from a trade review that absolutely must be used but is almost impossible to pick the right piece of!" —More Realistic but Still Hopeless Dreamer
