The Eye of the Goddess Book 1
Lia is trying to save her people, so she is willing to sacrifice herself to an almost certain death. She has made it so that she has a chance to at least getting her to the temple. But on the selection it isn't just her now, she has to help save her sister too. How will she be able to get them both to the temple alive?
This is the first book in the Eye of the Goddess. Lia may be a princess, but she is so much more than that. She is such a complex character that you can't help but identify with. Jason is someone that I'm not sure if she should be kissing or slapping. But either way, I want to see more between these two. The world is rich with mythology and yet it is twisted and beautiful. There are so many questions that are left unanswered. I loved reading this book with its take on. Mythology. I can't wait to read the next book in the series, a Vow of Embers.

Product description and Images are from amazon.com:
“Lia is the princess of Locris, a dying desert nation cursed centuries ago by an earth goddess—one still worshipped by the thriving and adversarial nation of Ilion. Every year, Ilion offers the goddess a sacrifice: two Locrian maidens forced to compete in a life-and-death race to reach her temple. In a millennium, no maiden has made it out of Ilion alive. This year, Lia is one of the hunted.
An education in battle gives her a fighting chance, but the challenges are greater than she feared: Lia’s beloved but untrained sister Quynh has been put in the path of danger. The winding streets of Ilion itself have been transformed into a labyrinthine maze of countless choices and dead ends. And if the risks weren’t significant enough, Lia is reluctantly drawn to the commandingly attractive Jason, an Ilionian sailor she loathes to trust and desires like no man before.
The tribute game is on. It’s up to Lia to lift the goddess’s curse, restore Locris to its former glory, and change the fate of every young woman destined to follow in her path.”
