This Sleeping Beauty isn't sure she wants to wake up . . . Dance instructor Rory Callahan likes to play it safe. When she meets Kyle, he's impulsive, persistent, and her exact opposite.

After all, her parents imagine her as a proper princess - hence her namesake Aurora, AKA Sleeping Beauty. Complicating matters, Rory's also dealing with a surgeon boyfriend who's perfect for her (sort of), an obnoxious boss, and desperate dance moms. Kyle wants to change her whole life, but Rory doesn't like the stakes. After all, princesses are the ones who get the happy endings . . . aren't they? Welcome to Storybook Valley . . .
