Book Overview

by Autumn Krause (Author)

In this sweeping World War II historical romance threaded with magic and myth, two star-crossed Japanese American teenagers find a love more powerful than the gods--inspired by the author's true family history of internment and resilience.

"A beautifully rendered story, full of heart and feeling."--Stephanie Garber, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Once Upon a Broken Heart

A CALIBA GOLDEN POPPY AWARD FINALIST

A divine favor can change everything.

1942. War rumbles across the world, gods stir in the wind, and two star-crossed souls are set on a path that will change them forever.

Seventeen-year-old Ren Hamada is defined by his troubled past, while Violet Aratani only worries about keeping her straight-A grades. They have little in common beyond the old magic that thrums in their family relics--until the US government forces them out of their homes simply because they're Japanese American. In a barbed-wire world where everything seems upside down, the magnetic pull between them is the only thing that makes sense.

But there's more than just desert dust swirling in the air. A god walks among them, his mortal form tethered to the camp, and only Violet and Ren can free him--an act that would earn them an immeasurable reward. Yet with tensions rising and their lives on the line, is even a divine favor enough to save them?

Author Biography

Autumn Krause was born and raised in Los Angeles, California. Her grandfather, his three siblings, and her great-grandmother were interned at Gila River Camp in Arizona during WWII, while her great-grandfather fought in the 442nd, the only all-Japanese regimental combat team. She writes: "The internment was knit into my life, a deep injustice never talked about with any theatrics, but always present, a memory living beyond the confines of its dates to form the backdrop of mine." Autumn lives in Orange County, California, with her husband and children. She is a critically acclaimed author of Before the Devil Knows You're Here, an Amazon and Kirkus Best Book of the Year.
