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

When Yesteryear started flying off our shelves, the majority of us at HOBAF needed to see what the hype was all about - causing an accidental 7 person buddy read!😀
We were surprised to find that our average staff rating was 3.8/5! ⭐
Comment your opinions on Yesteryear and the format you read it
