What if the ballet was just the beginning?
The Nutcracker Prince is on a mission - to save the Land of Sweets from the power-hungry Mouse King. But when Prince Klaus turns to Clara, the mage from the Realm of Waking, he finds more than just a savior for his kingdom. He finds the girl from his past, all grown up - but she thinks that long-ago battle was all a dream.
Clara has been promised to a man she hates and can't see a way out. When she comes face to face with the boy from her dreams, her world turns upside down. He's all grown up now, and he needs her help. She takes a leap of faith and joins Klaus in a daring adventure across the Realms. As they battle the Mouse King and his army, Klaus and Clara rekindle their connection and discover a love that might save them all.
