As the daughter of the Greek creation god, immortality is Elysia's birthright. But her mother was a mortal woman who believed Elysia must earn her place at her father's side, not just stand in his shadow. Now, as her twentieth year looms, Elysia must pass the tests her mother designed - or face a curse tailored for her. Carted off to Corinth, Elysia is exposed to the realities of human life for the first time. She witnesses beauty and tragedy she could not have imagined in her sheltered valley. In the midst of her new surroundings, Elysia meets people who change her destiny: Alexander, a charismatic man from the poorest part of the city, and her grandmother, a wise woman who harbors a secret as old as Greece itself. A reimagining of the Greek mythos, begins Elysia's journey to fulfill her destiny and sets the spark to illuminate the Olympians' path. With the threat of her curse hanging over her head, Elysia must discover what it means to be human - and what it means to be eternal.
