This Immortal Heart cover

From the #1 bestselling author comes an epic story of love and war as two opposing deities find themselves drawn to each other against all odds. Because when Aphrodite and Ares fall in love, sparks are bound to fly.

THIS IS THE OLDEST LOVE STORY OF ALL TIME . . .

Aphrodite, Goddess of Love, wields unparalleled power over every divine and mortal heart. Though her world is one of beauty, she is the most dangerous god of all, ruled by passion regardless of the consequences.

Ares, God of War, is her perfect contradiction: feared, unwanted and relentless in his devotion to chaos. Where she breathes life into longing, he thrives in destruction.

And yet gods are no more immune to love and loss than anyone else, and soon their lives collide. But even divine love can't protect them from the fates of Mount Olympus, and whilst the God of War may be capable of greater love than anyone else, so many the Goddess of Love be capable of the gravest mistakes.

An exceptional achievement. Jennifer Saint immerses us into a vibrant, magical world, with a wonderfully compelling heroine * Elodie Harper on HERA *
Jennifer Saint's Hera is THE essential mythological book of the decade * Nikita Gill on HERA *
Hera is Jennifer Saint's best book yet, and every bit as fierce, powerful and captivating as Hera herself * Rosie Hewlett on HERA *
With Saint's signature eloquent and lyrical prose, Hera is not only a shrewd depiction of a complex female character but an expansive dissemination of the patriarchal pantheon * Bea Fitzgerald on HERA *
Very special. With echoes of Miller's Circe, Hera is an epic novel with an unforgettable cast of characters * Costanza Casati on HERA *
