Waiting on Wednesday: Princess of Thorns

Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we cannot wait to get our hands on.

 I am waiting on:

Title: Princess of Thorns

Author: Stacey Jay

Publisher: Delacorte Press

Publication Date: December 9, 2014
Genre: Young Adult, Fantasy, Fairy Tale Retelling, 

Game of Thrones meets the Grimm's fairy tales in this twisted, fast-paced romantic fantasy-adventure about Sleeping Beauty's daughter, a warrior princess who must fight to reclaim her throne.
Though she looks like a mere mortal, Princess Aurora is a fairy blessed with enhanced strength, bravery, and mercy yet cursed to destroy the free will of any male who kisses her. Disguised as a boy, she enlists the help of the handsome but also cursed Prince Niklaas to fight legions of evil and free her brother from the ogre queen who stole Aurora's throne ten years ago.
Will Aurora triumph over evil and reach her brother before it's too late? Can Aurora and Niklaas break the curses that will otherwise forever keep them from finding their one true love?

Why am I waiting?

Game of Thrones meets Sleeping Beauty, yep count me in. I have to say that Sleeping Beauty was always one of my favorite fairy tales. Add in a curse that prevents her from kiss anyone, without making them loss their free will, and I am sold. I am curious to see Stacey Jay's twist on the classic tale. 

What are you waiting on?
