Chains of Destiny: A Sleeping Beauty Retelling
A reluctant heart. A determined prince. A destiny they can’t deny.
Julya Denova never asked to be the savior of a fracturing fae realm, much less its queen. Forced into a deadly tournament for the crown, she must fight to keep the power from falling into the hands of a ruthless rival determined to reclaim her house’s lost throne. With the prison realm threatening to bleed into Almara and Julya’s life at stake, destiny leaves no room for distractions—like rescuing her sister or falling for the prince bound to protect her.
Torne has everything he’s ever wanted: a bonded Denova to protect, a purpose to guide his life, and a love he holds dearer than his own existence. But Julya’s mistrust keeps their bond from strengthening, and her resistance to her destiny threatens the fragile hope that she’s the key to saving the realm. Will his perseverance and loyalty win her over or frighten her into refusing the role that promises hope?
Perfect for fans of squeaky clean fantasy romance, dashing princes, and slow-burn love stories.
