A hundred years ago, a dark fairy cursed an innocent princess, forcing a kingdom to sleep until a brave prince would save them.

Maya is fueled by spite towards the royal family and fairies, who trapped ordinary people like her in a curse they didn't deserve. Now poverty-stricken, the seventeen-year-old bookmaker has one goal: rob her grandmother's faraway grave and use the riches within to save her family from starvation.

As she enters a world she doesn't recognise, Maya meets the charismatic but mysterious Teddy. He agrees to help her, and it's only a matter of time before romantic feelings emerge. But when Teddy's secret is revealed, it doesn't only change their friendship - it changes Maya's entire world.

Woken Kingdom is the first book in a four part series. This book can be read as a standalone.

Genre: Adventure fairytale fantasy 

Recommended age: Young adult (ages 14-18)
