Publisher Description

The passionate romance of Twilight meets Greek mythology in this dazzling debut about star-crossed demigods.

How do you defy destiny?

Helen Hamilton has spent her entire sixteen years trying to hide how different she is - no easy task on an island as small and sheltered as Nantucket. And it's getting harder.

Nightmares of a desperate desert journey have Helen waking parched, only to find her sheets damaged by dirt and dust. At school she's haunted by hallucinations of three women weeping tears of blood... and when Helen first crosses paths with Lucas Delos, she has no way of knowing they're destined to play the leading roles in a tragedy the Fates insist on repeating throughout history. As Helen unlocks the secrets of her ancestry, she realizes that some myths are more than just legend. But even demigod powers might not be enough to defy the forces that are both drawing her and Lucas together - and trying to tear them apart.

OMGods, I can’t wait to read more!” — Lauren Kate, New York Times bestselling author of Fallen

"I really liked this book. It struck me as a good book because I love the greek gods. I thought it was a strange take on them and felt that it was well written. I also love how Helen is very strong willed and not dependent on Lucas. I really like this book and can't wait for the second one."

    " A series I strongly suggest for those who are intrigued by Greek mythology. This is not your cliche Twilight love story, unless I happen to miss the heated romance or captivating demi-gods that fill this novel. You'll be hooked by the first page. "

    " Enjoyed this update of Greek mythology, with the various "Houses" of demigod families. The young heroine and hero are truly "starcrossed;" if they give in to their romantic inclinations, a war will break out and result in the destruction of all civilization. Whew! "

    " I love the plot of this book! It has a good involvment of Greek myth but does keep you on your toes, despte already knowig the character traits and their stories. The writing is a litle immature, but it was something I was able to overlook in favor of the interesting plot. "
