A reimagining of Sleeping Beauty, the Fareviews are one step closer to discovering the truth that has them trapped behind the hedge.

Brinna Fareview's mother has finally agreed to tell her secrets. So at one moment, Brinna is eating with her family around a table, and in the next she's trapped between the world awake and a nightmare. With the ability to move from dream to dream, Brinna tries to find a way out of the deep sleep, but she's stuck. Then an unexpected thing happens: Lucian Uraiahs, god of day and light, walks into her dream.

While Lucian decided a long time ago that Brinna Fareview was a blight on his peace, he refuses to admit to his unbidden feelings he has for her. But after being stripped of his powers and imprisoned with only his guilt to keep him company, when he falls asleep, he dreams of Brinna.

When Brinna and Lucian realize they are meeting in their dreams, they work to uncover Scarlett's story to find the key to breaking the sleeping spell. But the longer they share their dreams, time is against them. Lucian is the only link to the real world, the only link to uncovering the secrets they need to save her family and his brother from a spell that could destroy them all.
