About this listen
Previously published as Eirwen.
All hearts are capable of breaking. Especially a heart of stone....
Eirwen Blackvein grew up in a dwarven mining camp at the edge of the map. A perfect place to hide an elven princess destined to destroy a queen and save a kingdom at war, as foretold in a seer’s magic mirror. Except, Eirwen doesn’t know she is the lost princess. Only that she was found as a newborn with her heart carved out. And why she now possesses a heart of stone in her chest, one forged by the dwarves.
A heart made from the black stone she mines to power war machines for her realm’s king.
The same enchanted stone coveted by a neighboring queen to destroy an entire kingdom.
Eirwen’s only desire is to protect her workers from the soldiers who are seizing mines for the crown. Even if it means kidnapping Lieutenant Prince Florian Halivaard, the youngest son of a warmongering king she discovers half-dead outside of the Dark Forest.
With monarchs from different kingdoms willing to kill for her heart’s magic, Eirwen finds herself at the center of a losing battle. Her only chance to protect those she loves and defend her kingdom is to trust her enemy—a prince with haunting silver eyes fated by the faeries to one day meet a heart of stone.
A heart he will break.
Of Heart and Stone is a young/new adult elven faerie tale fantasy spin on the romantic tale of Snow White, blending faerie magic and pagan ritual with a 1930s/1940s wartime inspired setting. Guaranteed to please listeners who love angsty, enemies-to-lovers medium-burn fated romances, twisted fairy tales, and strong found family themes.
Standalone in a connected series/shared world. Books can be listened to in any order. Guaranteed happily ever after.
The story is good, but not for me. I liked that Snow whites brother called her violent. I laughed every time. I thought the story was original. I liked the typical role reversal.
So why is it not for me? What I didn’t like was the writer’s style. Im not an emotional person. It’s very wordy and lavish. I found myself not paying attention with the over the top I loves you… and this is what you mean to me… how shall I compare you… blah blah blah. That and the info history dump on the importance of their relationship. That seemed rushed and confusing.
That said, I think most ppl will love this story.
Not for me, but a good story
