Publisher's summary

When Jenny suddenly wakes to find herself being kissed by a strange - but very handsome - prince, she knows that her boring life of folding laundry could be gone forever. Stuck in a medieval land of castles and royalty, Jenny learns that she is being forced to marry the prince, and she is definitely okay with that. She escapes to find out how to return home while trying to keep from falling love with either of the boys vying for her attention.

Princess Genevieve has only known life under her mother's rule. She wants to do more than go to battle or deal with suitors. She wakes to find herself in a new world filled with gadgets, electricity, and moving carriages. She finally has the freedom to be who she wants to be with the family who cares deeply for her and a boy worth any sacrifice. It's more than everything she always wanted.

As Jenny and Genevieve settle into their new lives, they face an unknown evil which threatens everything they care about and makes them face tough questions - like who they are and what they really want their lives to become.

Enjoyed this re-imagined Sleeping Beauty tale

This is book 1 in the Lost In a Fairytale series. If you like fairy tales and time travel stories, I recommend this series. When Jenny and Princess Genevieve are forced to exchange each other’s lives, there is a lot of adjusting to do. This story is action-packed with a healthy dose of romance and intrigue. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

I listened to the audio version and narrator, Laura Bannister, did a wonderful job

A Different Sleeping Beauty

What if you suddenly became the real life sleeping beauty and find out the story is not a fairytale? You are kisses by a prince who seemed to switch two girls one in our time and another much earlier that was actually cursed. As you try to figure how to handle the new time you are in. Hoping there will be more.

Timeless - A tale of Sleeping Beauty

I was pleasantly surprised with the twist in this tale of Sleeping Beauty. Jaclyn Weist has given us a tale of two young ladies separated by about 1000 years who have mysteriously switched places. My interest was kept throughout as the chapters alternated between the two time periods.

Laura Bannister did a fantastic job with the narration.

A fun story for tweens.

The story of Sleeping Beauty, with an interesting twist. What if, when Princess Genevieve (sleeping beauty) was awoken by the prince after 100 years of sleep, but instead of it being the princess who wakes, it’s a teenage girl from our time. There’s magic, fairies, love interests, and of course an evil behind the mysterious situation.
This story was fun, but I would definitely put it in the tween/teen category. For me, it lacked a little something. Maybe it was that everything just seemed to go a little too smoothly with how the caricatures just accepted how some things were. Overall, it was a fun book that I enjoyed.
I received this book for free in exchange for my honest review.

And then I woke up!

This is one of the most interesting retelling of Sleeping Beauty that I have come across. In a fascinating twist, there are 2 young ladies involved, Jenny and Genevieve - one a modern teen, the other, a medieval princess. Imagine waking up in a castle, being kissed by a gorgeous guy. He calls you “Highness”; introduces himself as a Prince. What the ...? Now, flip that scene. You are from the 13 Century. You are a princess and wake in a modern day house in Idaho. There are several children running around and they all laugh when you “order” them to serve you. But, it’s the magic that captures your attention. There is a cold box to store food, torches come on with a wave, and carriages that move without horses. All these wonderments aside, what happened?

That’s the story. Find out what happened. It is told from the alternate points of view of Jenny and Genevieve. Lara Bannister does a fantastic job of telling the story, giving unique voice to each character and portraying the movement of the story. One thing that stands out, to me, is Bannister can’t seem to shed her own diction when speaking one word, “thang”!

I wish there was an epilogue. Perhaps Ms. Wrist plans another instalment. It would be nice to know what happens to the girls after the ending and what happened to various other characters. What made the Queen react so strongly to her dreams? The more I think of all the threads left open, the more I believe there must be more! I hope so.

If you enjoy Fantasy, Fairy Tales with a twist, adventure with a touch of romance, this book is for you. In exchange for an honest review, I was given this book at my request.

Great Sleeping Beauty Twist!

I absolutely loved this new Sleeping Beauty with an extra twist! I’m young at heart and love Teen/YA fantasy books! This story sucked me in from the beginning and kept me hooked all the way to an unexpected unique conclusion.

Narration was good and brought the story to life.

The story is told in Jenny’s & Princess Genevieve’s POV. They wake up in each other’s shoes and they are from a totally different time! There are castles, knights, carriages, swords, magic, fairies, etc...

Jenny wakes up in a fairy tale and soon realizes that everything looks too real to be a dream. Princess Genevieve wakes up in our modern world trying to boss everyone around and very confused about her surroundings.

It was a delightful tale and one of my favorite variations of Sleeping Beauty! I’m looking forward to reading more books by this talented author!

Lovely paranormal fairy tale!

The story is a Sleeping Beauty story but paranormal. The characters, Jenny and Genevieve, switches places. Jenny is a 21st century teen and Genevieve is a princess in 13th century. They both find their ways in the world they are thrown into. The story is told by each one of the main characters. A good up to date Sleeping Beauty fairy tale. The narrator did an excellent job with the story. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Great story

Great book that beautifully blends a classic fairy tale with the story of two very different girls who switch places and eras and have to learn to fit in while avoiding the evil who switched them and finding out why they were switched. The characters are very well written and the storyline is great. The narrator does a very good job with the story.

Two girls and two different worlds.

This story is different but awesome with switching back and forth between the two times. It is almost like getting two different stories in one. It's different watching Jenny and Genevieve settle into each others lives, but I really enjoyed how they settled it. This is a great story finding adventure and love. Laura did a great job narrating especially going between the two girls and their different speech patterns.
