One touch and your heart is lost, as the hunter becomes the hunted in a dark romantasy from Sunday Times bestselling author, M. A. Kuzniar, for fans of Holly Black and Adalyn Grace.
Elka has been banished to the forest by her wicked mother, who rules the city with an iron first. She is cursed to remain there forever unless she takes the hearts of seven men. Six have been slain and a wounded huntsman stumbles across her path, destined to be the seventh. But Kaz is hiding a secret of his own, arriving in the forest with another agenda and as the two get to know one another, passion begins to spark. The magic within the forest is stirring and dark forces threaten to overtake them. Elka must face the ultimate choice: relinquish her destiny or betray her heart?
Step into the forest of hearts in this richly imagined take on the Snow White folklore, full of forbidden love, slow burn passion and the promise of true love's kiss.
