A devious princess in enchanted sleep.
A dutiful enchantress who dreads princes above all things!
After inheriting the responsibility of saving the world from Princess Zafira, Rosa smuggled her burden into Faraway Castle Resort. But even in sleep, hidden in a secret enclosure, Zafira has her wiles. Rosa maintains vigilant barriers of magicked flowers, shrubs, and trees to keep snooping princes at bay.

First day on the job, he walks into a trap and encounters a furious, frightened gardener who's obviously hiding something. But winning the prickly enchantress's trust is no easy task, especially while concealing his own identity.
A resort guest, the devious Prince Javier of Evora, begins shadowing Rosa. Seeing her reaction to him, Briar suspects the rival prince of dark motives. Torm between the powerful allure wafting from a hidden garden and his growing desire to protect the pretty gardener-mage, Briar must solve the mystery without losing his mind and heart. Or is it already too late?
Which prince will wake the sleeping beauty with a kiss? And once she wakes, who can protect the world from her wrath?
