A modern-day Sleeping Beauty story of love and hope, perfect for fans of Jojo Moyes. ''A rare and beautiful novel'' (Daily Mail)

What they don''t know is that in the past few weeks Elsa has regained partial consciousness - she just has no way of telling them.

Thibault is in the same hospital visiting his brother and, seeking a retreat, finds his way into Elsa''s room. When he begins to talk to her, he doesn''t realise she can hear every word - and that he is giving her a reason to wake up.

And so begins a love story that might just save both their lives...
