The Silent Night

A Sleeping Beauty Retelling (The Christmas Chronicles)

De: Sarah Beran

Narrado por: Tawnya Rollingson

Twas the hour after midnight and all through the house, not a creature was stirring, except for the owls.
And Holly.

Holly is no stranger to the night. Her unique position means that the still hours in the darkest parts of the night are when most of her work gets done. It’s not completely silent—she has Parliament to thank for that—but it does get a bit lonely. Not even the letters from her faithful correspondent can completely fill the empty space, and it’s only a matter of time before she loses even those.

Dominic Klause has watched as, year after year, the winters in Weihnacht grow longer and colder. The nights are dark, food is scarce, and his fellow countrymen are desperate for a miracle, but too proud to accept charity, leaving Dominic no choice but to hide his attempts at helping them under the cover of darkness. But his resources are limited, and not even the brilliant suggestions of his friend Joy can change the fact that it will require the riches of a king to continue his charitable efforts.

As Deus Natus Eve approaches, Dominic turns his attention towards the one place that could solve all his problems—the abandoned castle of the former king. But all is not as it seems behind the towering holly hedges that surround the castle, and Dominic encounters more than he bargained for. When the unexpected gift of love is dropped into his lap, will Dominic find the treasure he seeks? Or will it be lost to the silence of the night?

This book is a part of The Christmas Chronicles, a collection of festive novellas filled with clean romance, chilly weather, and cozy adventures.

Sleeping Beauty reimagined

Fabulous narrator and a great re-telling of Sleeping Beauty.
I really enjoyed the parliament of owls and the friendship between the two main characters.

Beautiful!

This book was amazing!! Sarah writes so beautifully, and I loved seeing Nick and Holly’s relationship grow with letters. When they met, even though they didn’t know, I was so happy! I’ll admit, I cried a few times, but the ending was just wonderful and I loved the spin. Great Sleeping Beauty and Saint Nick retelling!
