An erotic novel of discipline, love and surrender from master storyteller Anne Rice. In the traditional fairy tale of 'Sleeping Beauty' the spell cast upon the lovely young princess can only be broken by the kiss of a prince. However, in the world of Anne Rice, this legendary curse is broken not with a kiss, but with sexual initiation. The Prince's reward for ending the hundred years of enchantment is Beauty's complete and total enslavement to him. Sleeping Beauty awakes to a world of seduction, desire and love. In the first of a three part retelling of the Sleeping Beauty story, Anne Rice explores the unspoken implications of this lush, suggestive fairy tale, opening up a world of erotic yearning and fantasy which is perfect for fans of Fifty Shades of Grey. This is the first of Anne Rice's classic Sleeping Beauty trilogy.

I'm no prude and am ...
Ok, my thoughts...I, um...what the hell was this?!?! I hated the whole thing and it is not even well written. I would not call this book erotica but it is filled with sex just not the kind that gets you carpal tunnel. I felt sorry for everyone's asses through out the entire book because it was full ...
I wanted to like this (at least) I mean, Sleeping Beauty mashed with forced submission and other kinkyness? I should love it, but it just was too much for me. I like my dark reads but not when it turns into more of sadism. Sorry to say, not for me.
I really have no words to describe precisely how revolting I found this book. If I didn't know better, I would think it had been written by a greatly disturbed teenager.Anne Rice is a good writer. She's a good story teller. She can write sensual scenes very well, based on my limited experience with ...
