Everyone loves a good enemy dynamic. Whether it’s a hero vs. villain situation or just two characters that don’t get along, enemy stories provide some juicy storylines we just can’t get enough of. The tension, the danger, the stakes!
But imagine this: what if those enemies weren’t enemies? What if they didn’t have that thing between them that makes them hate each other? How would the dynamic change? Would they be able to become a power duo…or would they still clash too much to work together?
In Witches Steeped in Gold, a Jamaican-inspired fantasy debut from Ciannon Smart, we see just that. Two enemy witches, Iraya and Jazmyne, have to put their differences aside and work together to take down a bigger threat. How does it turn out? Are they able to work together?
To find that out, you’ll have to read the book! But in the meantime, you can take this quiz and decide if these iconic YA enemies would make a good team.

About Witches Steeped in Gold
Divided by their order. United by their vengeance.
Iraya has spent her life in a cell, but every day brings her closer to freedom—and vengeance.
Jazmyne is the Queen’s daughter, but unlike her sister before her, she has no intention of dying to strengthen her mother’s power.
Sworn enemies, these two witches enter a precarious alliance to take down a mutual threat. But power is intoxicating, revenge is a bloody pursuit, and nothing is certain—except the lengths they will go to win this game.
