I think, at base, Fair Maiden is an interesting treatment of the "Sleeping Beauty" storyline. But the book itself is in dire need of an editor...or, really, an entire con-crit group's feedback.

The characters are flat---a purely evil villain, a beautiful, angelic (if vapid) heroine, a beautiful, charming (if occasionally controlling) hero, none of whom really grows or changes in the course of the book. Plotholes litter the pages, as do historical inaccuracies, and while the writing isn't bad, it definitely feels lazy at times. The result is an uncomfortable, often boring read humming with unmet potential.

I think if Fair Maiden, and its author, had been challenged to provide stronger storytelling, a broader variety of detail and diction, and more complex characters, it would have been a truly engaging book. Perhaps that's something to hope for in Schmidt's future endeavors.

One big long vampire date with a smidge of drama toward the end. Not super engaging, not utterly unique. And not clear why they chose a male to narrate the audio.

Weak, whiny heroine and obnoxious, overbearing hero. Probably didn't make it through the first 50 pages, but I couldn't keep reading for fear my brain would melt and leak out my ears.

Great story line. Danielle wants the old romance and she meets her prince charming only to find out he isn't exactly what she imagined. By the end your cheering them on and can't wait to find out what happens and if they will have happy ending.
