Publisher's Summary
How do you defy destiny?
Helen Hamilton has spent her entire 16 years trying to hide how different she is - no easy task on an island as small and sheltered as Nantucket. And it's getting harder. Nightmares of a desperate desert journey have Helen waking parched, only to find her sheets damaged by dirt and dust. At school she's haunted by hallucinations of three women weeping tears of blood... and when Helen first crosses paths with Lucas Delos, she has no way of knowing they're destined to play the leading roles in a tragedy the Fates insist on repeating throughout history.
As Helen unlocks the secrets of her ancestry, she realizes that some myths are more than just legend. But even demigod powers might not be enough to defy the forces that are both drawing her and Lucas together - and trying to tear them apart.

"First novel of a trilogy?"
I really enjoyed this read. The book was engaging, interesting, extremely well narrated, but it left me wondering where the second and third volumes were languishing. The second in the series is Dreamless. It was published and out in May of 2012. I'm really anxious to read the sequels because this writer doesn't short change the reader with a couple of dozen dime novels to tell a story when she can tell a full and compete story in a trilogy. I love the characters she painted with her words and I'm so surprised that I'm the first to write a review on this volume because it should have scads of them long since.
I wonder if those who read it failed to post a review until they had continued the story in the sequels. If so, that's a pity because anyone who read the reviews would be downloading this book right now. As it is, I may have to go to Barnes&RobYou to download it to my Nook when I'd really enjoy it while on a long drive or even while cleaning house. I get so interested and into it that I fail to notice that I'm working or even working out, God forbid. Oh well... At least read Starcrossed because you will like it. I had had it in my library but was a tiny bit put off by the synopsis. That may need to be revisited in case anyone else had the same reaction. I thought, wow.... why didn't I read this sooner?
Do yourself a favor and don't put it off. It's worth it.
Oh, I nearly forgot. In my research, I put the authors name in my search engine and she has a website. So, I trucked on over there even though I should be in bed, and wouldn't you know? The third book in the trilogy is titled "Goddess." It can be pre-ordered in print but I think it can be downloaded now to my Nook. PLEASE, Audible... get these two recorded into audible books so we can buy them?2 of 2 people found this review helpful -

"Kind of a roller coaster ride!!!"
Where does Starcrossed rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?I haven't heard that many audiobooks yet, but I thought this one overall pretty good.
What did you like best about this story?The best thing about this story is definetly the ROMANCE!!! I really could feel their sexual tension. Some great stuff!!!!
Have you listened to any of Devon Sorvari’s other performances before? How does this one compare?Never heard anything from her before.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?I thought some parts were funny n the couple were very romantic. But no crying. LOL
Any additional comments?I thought this book was very similar to Fallen by Lauren Kate. So if u like romance with some story line this is the book for u.
