Previously published as EIRWEN

She has a heart of stone.
A heart he is fated by the faeries to break.

Eirwen Blackvein grew up in a 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.

A heart made from the black stone she mines to power weapons 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. 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 new adult fae fantasy spin on the romantic tale of Snow White, blending faerie magic and pagan ritual with a 1930s-1940s wartime inspired setting.

✨All hearts are capable of breaking. Especially a heart of stone✨



OF HEART AND STONE is a multi-award winning book!

✨ 1st in category for Young Adult Fiction in the Maxy Awards
✨ Finalist for Overall Best Book Design in the Next Generation Indie Books Award
✨ Honorable Mention for Young Adult Mythology and Fairy Tales in the Readers' Favorite Awards



"Jesikah Sundin ripped my heart out with this book and I thanked her for it."
— Hanna Sandvig, author of the Faerie Tales Romance series


"This magical story has amazing three-dimensional characters that embody female empowerment, breaking the glass ceiling, and calling out toxic masculinity through the retelling of a classic fairy tale. Sundin delivers a spell-binding adventure that is truly original and unique and weaves in a love story."
— Liz Konkel, Readers' Favorite, 5-STAR REVIEW


"Jasikah is a marvel. Her words are descriptive and beautiful like The Wrath and The Dawn's writer Renee Ahdieh. I can't wait to dive into this world again and again!"
—Gladys Atwell, Nerd Girl Official, 5-STAR REVIEW

OHaS is a standalone novel but part of a connected series of retellings and is a New Adult Fantasy Romance.In the end, this story wasn't bad. It was unique and thrilling, and I do wish I liked both protagonists instead of one of them, which is a step up from my last Snow White retelling I read. In the end, I wanna try more books from this author, hopefully I like the other ones more.

Loved the book, the story, the love, the world, just everything, but my favorite thing was the characters. They felt real, unique and memorable, even the side characters. I loved the swapped gender roles too!

5.0 out of 5 stars This is my favorite in the series

Second book in her Ealdspell Cycle series which is a Snow White retelling during in what can be described as a WWII setting. The leads tackle stereotypes that can be harmful to ones wellbeing and how to be oneself without being ashamed of it. There is a refreshing take on the Snow White elements that make this standout in the crowd compared to other retellings.
Eirwen is not your typical damsel in distress. She works the mines with her dwarven brothers trying to prove that she is a capable foreman and leader. She much rather go back to being a regular miner and give into her impulses or tinker with machines. But she takes her role as leader serious and refuses to back down to protect those she cares for. But her anger for their position of being under the rule of a totalitarian king makes the magic in blood boil which can cause repercussions if not controlled.
Florian is the youngest prince in the a military style family that is all about showing power and masculinity. He rather spend his days in a kitchen or protecting life instead of taking them. This is seen as weakness and he is mocked his entire life as being less and feminine. In what he knows is a mission that is meant to be his death, he goes out in search of a the legendary Black Witch and told not to come back without her.
After being on this mission and close to death, Florian is discovered by Eirwen and some of her dwarves. He is brought back as a prisoner but they discover there is more in danger than just the collapse of the dwarves and their mines at the hand of the king.
There is so much I love about this book that I have a hard time just talking about one or two things. The side characters just make this story so much better. I love Mo - Happy - he had me laughing several times with his antics. Our Bashful reads romance novels and leaves them laying around everywhere. Lu - Grumpy - is prickly on the outside but, as Eirwen said, such a soft strudel on the inside. I absolutely adored both main leads. Eirwen is all action but can be reasoned with eventually, as Mo likes to say "so angry, so violent". Florian is someone I wanted to wrap in a blanket and tell him nothing is wrong with him. He manages to find himself in a world that tells him he is wrong and I just love that.

3.0 out of 5 stars Better than the first
Reviewed in the United States on April 2, 2024

This book was way better than the first book of this series. Way less steam punk stuff. I would've given this book a four or five star rating except for the too many gay references. I can take a few here or there, but I felt like it was being forced on me and then the final push over the edge with Ronan and Gedlen. No thanks. I agree that men can be gentle, but that doesn't make them gay. It would've been a great book without that. So, you may like this book more than I did if you like that pushed upon you. I like more freedom to imagine my own fun world with the characters. Again, this book's storyline was way better than the sleeping beauty one. I do appreciate the low spice in this book that was left to my own imagination. I won't read the next book due to the too frequent gay references in this one. Took some of the enjoyment I had from reading this better done storyline.

I absolutely love all of Jesikah's books; this one is no exception! She is a master of weaving lore and her imagination together into something wholly spellbinding and unforgettable. I promise you have never read a Snow White retelling/reimagining like this! Jesikah provides the readers with rich detail and well-rounded characters that sing on the page and come to life in the mind. Thank you, Jesikah for your beautiful creativity!

I loved the Snow White story before but now I am even more in love. Ugh! Florian! I lost many tears over him in this story. The characters were perfect and worked so well together. Mix in the drama of the settings and it was such a wonderful world. I love the mix of technology and old world.

4.0 out of 5 stars Almost Perfect
Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2024

I loved the MMC <3 He was pretty much a Disney Princess and it was awesome. He was such a protective and nurturing sweetheart without being a pushover. He was manipulated and gas lit by his abusive family and we see him struggle to conquer his self doubt. He was basically the whole package.

The FMC, if we are adhering to sunshine/grumpy tropes was definitely the grump in this story. I wish she had more of an arc to manage her anger/magic problems. Idk why not one elf thought to sit her down and give her at least a Magic 101 lesson. Her grumpiness was definitely more endearing in the 2nd half and I grew to like her character for the MMC. I also had to remind myself that she was still young and had been raised amongst "the boys" so I should forgive her for thinking romance and feelings were "yucky". It goes to show that girls are exposed to toxic masculinity too and can deny having so called feminine traits so they are not considered "weak". In reality I don't think these traits are feminine or masculine, just part of being an emotionally mature person.

I did enjoy the bonus love scene from the MMC's point of view and wished it had been included in the main book.
