Synopsis

The Huntresses of Artemis must obey two rules: never disobey the goddess, and never fall in love. After being rescued from a harrowing life as an Oracle of Delphi, Kahina is glad to be a part of the Hunt; living among a group of female warriors gives her a chance to reclaim her strength. But when a routine mission goes awry, Kahina breaks the first rule in order to save the legendary huntress Atalanta.

To earn back Artemis's favor, Kahina must complete a dangerous task in the kingdom of Arkadia-where the king's daughter is revealed to be none other than Atalanta. Still reeling from her disastrous quest and her father's insistence on marriage, Atalanta isn't sure what to make of Kahina.

As her connection to Atalanta deepens, Kahina finds herself in danger of breaking Artemis's second rule. She helps Atalanta devise a dangerous game to avoid marriage, and word spreads throughout Greece, attracting suitors to go up against Atalanta in a race for her hand. But when the men responsible for both the girls' dark pasts arrive, the game turns deadly.

I would recommend this book to those who loved Ash. I disliked both of them, but I feel like they had similar vibes and both were painfully slow and lacked of depth. ----------------------------------------------- So this is about gay huntresses of Artemis? That's everything I ever wanted from The Tit......more

I was sent this book as an advanced copy by the publisher via NetGalley for reviewing purposes, but all opinions are my own. 3.5 stars I liked this book and especially for a debut I think the author did a great job, but there were also things I was looking for in a book set in ancient Greece that......more
