4/5 stars

When a fae prince of the Seelie Court is prophesied to do great things, the Unseelie King sets out to thwart the prophecy. Ashamed, the prince leaves his people and lives in the woods where he can be alone with his animal friends, along with some goblins. However, a human huntress ends up staying with him. She has dark secrets of her own that could result in disaster. Both the huntress and the prince have a lot to lose.

This is such an original Snow White re-telling! I loved so many things about this book! The messages in particular are amazing! Beauty was shown as being a reflection of character and not just appearance-based. Forgiveness was extended to those who probably did not deserve it. Not to mention, the characters themselves were so cute! The swapping of the gender roles was a nice touch, and I loved that this was a completely clean story! Ultimately, the only thing I disliked was that this was a novella and not a novel! I would have loved a novel-length version of this book where the characters and plot could have been explored more! H.S.J Williams is such a talented author and I would love it if she ever wrote more re-tellings!

Lovers of re-tellings and clean fantasy novellas should give this book a try!
