Laura Steven’s Our Infinite Fates is a beautiful blend of heartwarming romance, emotional complexity, and magical realism. The novel invites readers into a world where fate isn’t just an idea, but a tangible force, and the decisions we make shape the paths we take. Our Infinite Fates is a captivating, star–crossed enemies-to-lovers romance that crosses a millennium, blending love, danger, and fate in a thrilling journey.
At the heart of the Young Adult Fantasy novel is Evelyn. She remembers every life she has ever lived, and in each one she meets the same tragic fate – murdered before her eighteenth birthday. But this time, things are different. She’s grown fond of the life she’s living now, and, more importantly, her sister needs her bone marrow to survive. Now, Evelyn must track down the ancient enemy who has hunted her through every incarnation, confront the mystery of why she’s being pursued, and try her hardest not to fall in love with this timeless rival again.
About the book:
Steven shines at creating a protagonist whose struggle to control her destiny feels deeply personal and relatable. Evelyn’s journey is a gripping combination of romance, mystery, and self-discovery as she confronts the shadowy forces chasing her as well as the complexities of love that transcend time. The slow-burning romance is intense, exploring the heart-wrenching theme of love that’s both inevitable and dangerous.
The story is built around themes of choice and destiny, exploring how we face our fates and what it means to truly live a life of our own making. Steven’s writing is evocative, pulling the reader into a world where every moment is charged with impact. The emotional stakes are high, with moments that feel greatly personal and authentic, yet there are moments of optimism and humour, leaving readers with much to reflect upon long after they turn the final page.
Steven’s step into Fantasy:
Our Infinite Fates marks an exciting new chapter in Laura Steven’s writing career as her debut fantasy novel. Previously, Steven has cemented herself in the YA thriller and contemporary space with books suchs as Every Exquisite Thing and The Exact Opposite of Okay. 2025 will not only see the release of her first YA fantasy, but also her debut adult fantady, Silvercloak, which is set to come out later this year (and I can also confirm that Silvercloak is another incredible book from Laura).
Steven takes a bold step into the sphere of magic, fate, and destiny, creating a world that feels both immersive and unique. This evolution into fantasy highlights her versatility as an author, showing her skill to build rich, visionary worlds while staying true to her own style of storytelling.
