"This book takes an emotional toll! Angelina is a goddess when it comes to sequencing and backgrounds. This book takes mythology to a whole new level. And the tragic love story between Helen and Lucas is so fatal, it makes me cry. And the LIES! The lies in the book are hard to spot. . . but great! I love this book. 5 out of 5."
Starcrossed follows a seventeen-year-old teenager named Helen Hamilton who lives in Nantucket. After having a series of mysterious dreams, along with hallucinations of three young girls who appear to be pained, Helen finds herself strongly romantically drawn to a teenage boy named Lucas. It is eventually revealed that Helen is a modern-day Helen of Troy, and that the women she sees are actually the Furies. Discovering that many of the people she has just met are actually Archetypes of Greek characters from the Trojan War that are reborn and reincarnated over and over again for unknown reasons. It is also discovered that a union between Lucas and Helen may initiate a new Trojan War. Amidst these revelations, Helen and Lucas seek a way to pursue their blossoming romance without endangering those around them. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starcrossed_(novel))
