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.

Praise for Forest of Hearts: 

‘Deliciously dark and totally bewitching, Forest of Hearts gripped me from the very first pages. Like Elka, this debut romantasy is bound to steal your heart!’ Emily Cooper, author of The Season of Fear

‘A twisty, lyrical tale of monstrous creatures and magic. Romantic and beautifully wrought, this is Snow White as you’ve never seen her before. You will fall under its spell’ Rachel Greenlaw, author of The Woodsmoke Women’s Book of Spells

‘Deliciously romantic, gorgeously written and action-packed – your new favourite romantasy!’ Amy McCaw, contributing author of A Taste of Darkness

House of Books & Friends is thrilled to welcome Kevin Maguire in conversation with Sacha Lord to discuss his book 'The New Fatherhood'.
This event will take place on Tuesday, June 2nd from 6-7pm. 

🎟️ LINK IN THE BIO FOR TICKETS 🎟️

About the book 

Fatherhood will change you. That much is certain. But whilst it can never be under your control, it can be under your influence.

The old rules of fatherhood are no longer fit for purpose. It used to be simple: you had to protect, provide for, and preside over your family. But the world has changed, seeing today’s dads question the role they play in society, at work, and in their homes, as they feel the once-solid foundation of fatherhood crumble beneath their feet.
