Rosetta Academy Book 3: Of Dreams and Destiny by Sandhya Menon

 

Rosetta Academy Book 3

From the New York Times bestselling author of When Dimple Met Rishi comes the third installment in a series set an elite boarding school that’s a contemporary spin on fairy tales, this one a thrilling and swoon-worthy twist on Sleeping Beauty.

It’s senior year, and Daphne Elizabeth “DE” McKinley, the heiress to the McKinley hotel dynasty, is still licking her wounds after a painful breakup. She’s determined to keep her head down and her heart shuttered—even from new student Xander, no matter how dreamy he is. 

Then Rosetta Academy is swallowed up by a sudden and massive spring storm, and very strange things start happening. The students start to fall into a stupor, then a deep sleep…one by one. Soon, DE is racing against the clock to find the source of the strange spell and stop it before it claims the entire school. Could Xander’s help be the key to solving the mystery?

My Review: 5/5 Stars

It feels like I have been waiting a long time for this book and it is finally here! The last (at least I’m pretty sure) book of this series and of course I devoured it in a matter of hours. I think I liked this one the best of the series. So this story follows DE, Daphne Elizabeth, who has decided to close off her heart and protect herself after the disaster that was her last relationship. She never wants to feel that way again and is determined to keep it that way. But how does she stand a chance when the new student, Xander, comes into her life? She knows she is in trouble the moment she sees him, but she has to protect herself. She just has to. But weird things start happening at Rosetta Academy. A snow storm threatens to close them off from the outside world and students start falling into a stupor then deep sleep, one by one. DE finds herself remembering the words of a psychic warning her of what was to come and that she had the key to finding it. But she won’t solve this on her own. Xander came to the school to find the truth about his ancestor who died at Rosetta. And as fate would have it, the past may give them the answer to save everyone. Really loved this story! Lot of fun and DE and Xander were a great match. They had excellent chemistry and worked together so well as they solved the mystery of what was going on to their friends and how to save everyone. Also throw in a ton of magic and some Sleeping Beauty references, and we’ve got yet another great story of this series!
