In a castle of secrets and a garden of dreams, love may be the key to awakening them both.
Mirelle is a skilled thief who steals not for riches, but for the stories hidden in the objects she touches. Her magic allows her to glimpse secrets of the past—memories locked within trinkets, relics, and forgotten heirlooms. During a dangerous heist, an abandoned castle suddenly appears. Inside lies a forbidden object that only royal blood can touch…and it calls to her. When Mirelle dares to lay her hands upon it, she’s swept into a trial to determine the heir to the throne—one left vacant after the previous prince vanished without a trace.
Before she can escape, that night she awakens in a dream-bound garden of roses and thorns, where time stands still and nothing is quite what it seems. The only other soul trapped there is a nameless gardener who tends to the withering blooms. But when Mirelle wakes, the world has changed. The ruined castle is whole again, and the kingdom believes she is the long-lost princess cursed into slumber. By day she attempts to navigate the intrigue of the royal court, while at night she's drawn deeper into the dream realm.
As Mirelle and the mysterious man from her dreams begin to fall in love across the veil of sleep, a curse descends—one that threatens not only the waking world, but the fading memory of the man who haunts her dreams whose face begins to resemble someone long lost. To uncover the truth, Mirelle must unravel the palace’s secrets, break the curse, and rescue the man trapped in her dreams—before she loses herself to the world of sleep forever.
