A Kiss in Time by Alex Flinn

Alex Flinn does a sterling job with a modern twist on another well-loved fairy tale--Sleeping Beauty--but instead of being asleep for about a day, Euphrasia is asleep for 300 years. Princess Talia pricks her finger on the spindle causing the curse of sleep. Three hundred years into the future, two teenaged boys excape from an educational trip and discover this long-lost kingdom. Jack is one of the boys who finds Talia. He is compelled by her beauty to kiss her. This kiss breaks the spell, and Talia awakens to find this oddly-dressed boy as her prince. Doing the only thing she can do, she follows him back to his home. Unfortunately for Talia, Jack thinks of her as a royal brat; plus, he can't seem to get his ex-girlfriend out of his mind. Talia only has about a month to get Jack to tell her he loves her, or she and the kingdom will be thrown back into an endless slumber.

Will Jack tell Talia he loves her, or will his ex-girlfriend win his love?
