What a brilliant read! This is a gender reverse retelling of sleeping beauty, it has adventure, romance and wit. The story starts off with two treasure hunters, each who has a hiddened past and who don't like each other very much, pair up to do a job. The story is told from both perspectives and learn more about each characters backstories before they learn more about each other. I loved that world building was written into the unfolding story and not a big chunk a the beginning that we had to get through to get to the story. I have really been getting into fantasy lately and this was just brilliant, first fantasy 5 star of the year and cant wait for the next instalment!
