| Calliope is a faerie with broken magic. After cursing a princess to a hundred years of sleep, no one will hire Calliope to work as a court fairy, let alone hire her for a simple enchantment. After returning from a vacation, King Aaron comes home to find Calliope a prisoner in his dungeon and that his brother Johann had attempted to wake the sleeping princess, only to be caught in the spell. Aaron should be concentrating on freeing Johann, but all he can think about is Calliope. Even when Calliope becomes a victim of her own spell, he can’t leave her to her fate, but must go after her despite the dangers.
Another great book in the perfectly wicked series. Miss Evans can do no wrong when it comes to the perfectly wicked books. The chemistry between Aaron and Calliope is off the charts right from the beginning. The sparks fly from the get-go and continue to scorch you through the end. Despite all that is going on with Calliope and Aaron, they just can’t get enough of each other. Plus what girl doesn’t want a guy who is not only a king, but is willing to kill a dog-dragon to rescue you? Not only did Aaron enter a castle that is trying to kill him once, but he goes back in again a second time for Calliope. Not only will you find all kinds of characters and creatures in this book and series, but buildings come to life! The plot is full of details and shows off Ms. Evans’s creativity. The characters are vibrant beings full of spunk. Calliope’s ramblings make her a very endearing and life-like character. Beauty Sleep is a wonderful modern day spin on the Sleeping Beauty classic. Beauty Sleep will leave you satisfied yet anxious for the next book in the series.
