About this listen

Doctor Isla Cooper is cursed. Literally. Each night, at the stroke of midnight she falls into a deep sleep from which she cannot be awakened for six hours. To make it worse, the curse has an expiration date - after a year, she will fall asleep forever. And the year is almost up.

In a desperate attempt to find Malette - the witch who cursed her - Isla blackmails her way onto Daniel Pickett's private airship bound for the Caribbean, only to discover she's traveling with three illegal shapeshifters and the despicable Nigel Crowe, a government official determined to hunt down and exterminate every shapeshifter in England. Isla and Daniel must work together to keep the identities of the shapeshifters hidden while coming to terms with their own hidden secrets and their blossoming attraction to each other.

Filled with suspense, intrigue, and plenty of romance, Kiss of the Spindle is a steampunk Sleeping Beauty story. It is a race against the clock as Isla and Daniel try to hunt down the elusive Malette before Isla's deathlike sleep becomes permanent.

Predictable romance with a plot twist

Although there are elements of predictability there was enough twists and turns to make this an enjoyable listening experience. The performance was also very well done.

A great ending...

This was a great 4(so far)-book series, and I think the best story of them all. It would be great to hear that the author is planning on writing the rest of the fairytale ensembles??
As with the others, this story had an exciting plot, plenty of action, and as ever the eternal war between the sexes, BUT it was a little too modern in the style of that war. The forever backward and forward between does she or doesn't she love him...and him exactly the same but worse. The constant break-ups and arguments after their passion reaches a peak and shock horror they kiss or do something, whatever, and all of a sudden they won't talk or look at each other, etc. ugh! boring and repetitive. battling couples, everyone else already knowing they're in love but they don't?? Hmm!
The only negative comment about all 4 books.
