What to expect

'A page turner: tender yet tense, loving yet steamy, dangerous yet darkly humorous. Dominion draws gorgeously on Chinese mythology to create something entirely new.' - Brigitte Knightley

'A brilliant, captivating, deeply romantic fantasy debut! Dominion is an addictive read, and it's going to dazzle romantasy readers!' - Ali Hazelwood

A woman with no past. A warrior with no future. Their love could save the world-or burn it down.

In a world divided into four rival Dominions, power is everything-and Rubi Morningtail has almost none. Three years after the Annihilation destroyed her homeland and shattered her memories, she lives as an Azure refugee in the Dominion of the Silver Tyger, scraping by as a ribbon dancer and hiding her little bit of singing magic. When she wounds a massive battle-tyger on her doorstep, she draws the notice of Blake Axefire- supreme metal mage, leader of the royal tyger warriors, and the last man an Azure should trust. His sentence? Cast her into the Bonding, a brutal trial where tygers choose their riders and slaughter the rest. Surviving is unthinkable.

But survive she does. Now she's stuck on Blake's elite team racing to reseal the Anchors to the demon realm. With rebels striking, demons rising, and the Dominions at each other's throats, Rubi must unlock the truth of her magic and her past...while resisting her dangerous attraction to the ruthless warrior who could be her redemption-or her ruin.

'A lyrical fantasy where mythology and a hidden past intertwine with dangerous attraction.' - Danielle L. Jensen

'Scintillating romantasy from literary superstar.' - Thea Guanzon

Critics Review

A brilliant, captivating, deeply romantic fantasy debut! Dominion is an addictive read, and it's going to dazzle romantasy readers!
Ali Hazelwood, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Love Hypothesis and Bride
A riveting romantasy, richly infused with elements of Chinese mythology. Dominion is a high stakes thrilling adventure filled with dangerous battles, searing romance, and fascinating characters.
Sue Lynn Tan, USA Today bestselling author of Daughter of the Moon Goddess
Dominion is a page turner. Tender yet tense, loving yet steamy, dangerous yet darkly humorous-a real showcase of Kwok's ambidextrous talents. It draws gorgeously on Chinese mythology to create something entirely new, all while commenting, through Rubi's eyes, on the immigrant experience-the difficulty of displacement and the joy of finding new places (or people) to call home.
Brigitte Knightley, New York Times bestselling author of The Irresistible Urge to Fall for your Enemy
From the very first line of Dominion, I knew that I was in the hands of a master wordsmith; by the end, I knew that I would be thinking about this book for the rest of my life. This scintillating romantasy from literary superstar Jean Kwok cuts to the quick, equal parts tense and thrilling, each page filled with boundless imagination, evocative prose, and gut-wrenching stakes. I was mesmerized.
Thea Guanzon, New York Times and #1 international bestselling author of The Hurricane Wars
A searing entry into romantasy, Dominion is a feast for the senses with deadly magic tournaments, mythical companion animals, and Chinese-inspired elements - plus a burning romance and shocking twists. . . Kwok draws a fierce yet tender character of diaspora in Rubi Morningtail as she grapples with fitting in to a new world and new identity.
Amélie Wen Zhao, New York Times bestselling author of The Scorpion and the Night Blossom
Vibrant worldbuilding, a brave heroine, and a dangerous romance. I'm ready for the second book!
Ilona Andrews, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Burn for Me
A lyrical fantasy where mythology and a hidden past intertwine with dangerous attraction. Dominion is perfect for readers craving the emotional fire and high stakes plotting of KPop Demon Hunters.
Danielle L. Jensen, #1 New York Times bestselling author of A Fate Inked in Blood
Irresistibly thrilling! With non-stop action, romance, politics, and prophecy, plus a brave heroine, a broody hero, and an absolutely wonderful magical tyger, Dominion is un-put-down-able!
Sarah Beth Durst, New York Times bestselling author of The Spellshop
