Never has a story of two deities felt so utterly human - and with Saint's trademark weaving of myth, this love story is at once epic, urgent and ageless

Mythological reimagining at its finest - Aphrodite masterfully brought to life by Saint’s exquisite writing, brimming with intelligence, warmth, power and heart

Every page is drenched in Aphrodite’s power and the exquisite longing that is her love affair with Ares. This is a scintillating, glorious novel, from a writer who is at the height of her powers

An intoxicating blend of desire and longing, political machinations and fascinating, unpredictable characters, This Immortal Heart is an Olympian feast for the mind and the senses. I could not put it down

A lyrical, romantic tale . . . Jennifer Saint has proven once again why she’s the master of Greek mythology retellings

Saint’s talent for sumptuous prose, thoughtful voice and a compelling narrative shines through in the best way here. Readers will cheer, lament and pine for the clever Aphrodite and refreshingly nuanced Ares

Passionate, captivating and exquisitely written, This Immortal Heart reinforces Saint's status as the reigning goddess of modern mythology

In This Immortal Heart, Jennifer Saint gives us Aphrodite and Ares as we have never seen them before. A timeless love story crafted in beautiful, propulsive prose, this is a triumph

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 may the Goddess of Love be capable of the gravest mistakes.
