How do you defy destiny? Helen Hamilton has always known sheรฏยฟยฝs different from the other teens on tiny Nantucket, but itรฏยฟยฝs not until Lucas Delos moves to town that she realizes just how special she is. Facing Lucas in the halls of high school, Helenรฏยฟยฝs possessed by a powerful need to kill him--and she almost succeeds. But when their mutual hatred of each other transforms into desire, Helen and Lucas discover they are both Scions--descendants of Greek gods--and that their two families have for centuries been engaged in a deadly blood feud. As Lucas teaches Helen to use her powers, which include flying, controlling lightning, and an immunity to weapons (in addition to her gorgeous face, which sheรฏยฟยฝs inherited from a certain namesake whose own face รฏยฟยฝlaunched a thousand shipsรฏยฟยฝ), the two grow ever closer--but can never be together until they find a way around the curse thatรฏยฟยฝs destined to keep them apart.
