    Oh, Louisa, what a cliffhanger! A nice twist on Sleeping Beauty.
    I do hope Penelope gets her girl. Hopefully so as I notice Daddy said 'mate' and not husband :-)

    Thank you so much Ameliah! And thanks for the reminder! I just added a line about the tale. Awake comes from an excerpt from a currently unpublished tale that I'll be submitting to Decadent Publishing's Beyond Fairytales line. ;-)

    What an excellent twist that splices both tales together! I cannot wait to read "Pea"s adventure and intervention with her princess!

    I have always been fascinated with Sleeping Beauty stories and I loved the twist in this one.

    Hi Louisa, I loved the story and wanted so much to read on. Poor Rose, she has my sympathy because of what she has to endure until she’s freed. Pea is not much better off, as she is going to be married away in a short time. So, I am fully with her going on an adventure. Thank you for the story, I am definitely going to read the rest of it.

    I hope your submission goes well, so we can get the rest. I'm eager to see how Penelope wakes up Briar Rose, making it consensual where all the princes failed to do so. A nice tease for the complete piece. :)

    Can't wait to see the rest. I love your twist on classic fairy tales. I think the kingdom is in for a big surprise in two weeks. ;)
