Pandora is the first human woman made by the gods on Olympus for one simple purpose: to love and be loved by her new husband, the titan Epimatheos.
The only problem He wants nothing to do with her.
Hurt and confused, Pandora struggles to find meaning in her new life. What's the point of being given all these gifts by the gods, if she can't get this infuriating, awful, frankly very rude man (with an admittedly quite nice face) to love her Maybe she's failing at her lifes purpose. Or maybe she's destined for an entirely different one . . .
As Pandora and Matheos work to uncover why she was created, that fated connection between them feels increasingly difficult to ignore. And with that comes terrible risk. Because Matheoss traitorous brother, Prometheus, is a seer and before the gods captured him he issued a final warning: that Pandora and Matheoss love will be humanitys doom.
So . . . what do you do when faced with an all-powerful love . . . that just happens to threaten the end of the world
Pandoras about to find out.
