I met a friend
online who gave me a prompt for Hunted Heart. Her idea was to have a strong
heroine as the Hunter from Snow White who is given the job of killing the
prince. Heartbreak, magic mirrors, and poisoned apples all wound themselves
into the plot, and fifty thousand words later I had an adult take on the
fairytale.
My publishing
group, Myrddin Publishing, does a charity publication each year in
December. This year my Myrddin effort is Hunted Heart and all royalties will be
donated. It’s available for pre-order on Amazon, and you can add it to your
reading lists on Goodreads.
When Tali is hired to cut out the heart
of Prince Kas, the huntress can’t refuse. Tali
realizes there is no escape from the dark magic of the queen’s mirror, even
though her own feelings for the prince are far too complex to understand.
As they try to run from their shared
destiny, Tali and Kas have to rely on their wits and each other as hunter
becomes prey and hearts are won and lost.
A genderbent Snow White for adults (18+
only.) All royalties go to Save the Children.
My illustrator
did a lovely job with the book. Here is Lisa Daly’s cover for Hunted Heart:
