The Huntsman's Heart: A Retelling of Snow White

Princess Snow and Prince Henri couldn’t be more different.

Their kingdoms and families have been at enmity for a thousand years.

But when a new dark queen rises, they have little choice but to join forces.

If they don’t, not only will their kingdoms fall…but the entire western realm.

Princess Snow has been sheltered since she was born, hidden in a secret garden at her terrified father’s behest. But when her father dies, and her older brother grants her the freedom of which she’s always dreamed, she feels as though the world is finally hers. Just as Snow’s life is about to begin, however, her brother’s new wife reveals a heart full of jealousy and fear. Barely escaping the castle alive, Snow stumbles upon a group of kind-hearted mountain men…and the aggravatingly handsome prince who claims her brother asked him to find her.

Crown Prince Henri Fortier of Destin had no intentions of journeying into the heart of his enemy’s land. But when the newly crowned king of Tumen sends word, begging for help to find his missing sister, Henri goes in hopes of making peace with the new king. What he finds, however, is not what he expected.

The princess is indeed alive, but she won’t remain so if the king’s new wife has her way. And with the new queen’s blossoming powers, Henri knows he must intervene, not only for the princess’s sake, but for the entire realm. Intervening would be much easier, however, if the princess didn’t resent him so much. Which makes it even more confusing when he finds himself drawn to her…and wonders whether she’s secretly drawn to him, as well.

None of that will matter, however, if the evil queen has her way. If these two unlikely allies can’t stop her, a shadow of misery and oppression will overtake everyone they love.
