For hundreds of years, the fae have been capturing young royals, trapping them in sleeping curses where they wait for a true love's kiss that never comes. Prince Roran of Ki's dream of a solitary, food-filled future is squashed the day the gods declare that he's destined to wake Princess Phillipa of Marden. Their families are elated at the prospect of both of their hopeless children getting a happy ending, but Rory has two not-great problems. First, it's going to be difficult to fall in true love with someone who's stuck in a permanent sleep. And secondly, he has no interest in kissing anyone. Between the sweaty wizards, a Fairy Godmother who gets their advice from Wikihow, and his own asexuality, Rory only knows one thing: this is going to be a mess. (NaNoWriMo 2019 Project.
