The Forgotten Beast - Freya Victoria

. .

Résumé :
When Callie finds an old locked chest in her parents' attic, her mom tells her to not worry about it. That's a dare to find the key and find out what's inside, right? Full of old journals, she digs into the chest's depths and pulls one out. But when Callie starts to dream about the world in the journal, these dreams feel far too real. The snow is cold. The run from the wolf makes her heart pound. And she can feel the pain of the ropes digging into her wrists when she is taken to the castle under the mountain.Callie's life was predictable. She went to college. Got a job. Dated occasionally. Suddenly she finds herself falling for two men, traveling back and forth between her world and the prison world, never knowing which world she will wake up to.Callie gets trapped in her own world after the beast is shot. She doesn't know how to get back to the beast. She doesn't know if he's okay. She's terrified he didn't survive. And where the hell is Mason?When she finally wakes up again in the prison world, war is on the horizon. Callie is captured.She knows the fairy tale story of the men holding her captive, but why are they working together?Will she be able to do what it takes to save not only herself, but the beast's kingdom?
