The main character, Helen, was incredibly interesting as well. She was just a normal girl, or at least she thought she was. She happened to be incredibly fast when she ran and could never find jeans that properly fit her long legs, but hey, I'm a tall girl too and I have the same problem! Then, the Delos family comes back to town and everything changes. The normal girl that we thought Helen was is no more. Instead, she's a powerful demigod and nobody knows where she comes from, what house she belongs to, and the true extent of her powers. 
 I loved the entire cast of demigods in this book. Each one had amazing powers that were totally unique and somehow helped the plot along perfectly. I thought it was a nice touch to have such an element constant throughout the progression of the story. 
 I have to say that one thing I had a problem with was the romance in this story. While I did love it, I didn't like how it began. Obviously, the summary hints about their very first encounter. It was so sudden that I was the tiniest bit put off by it. Then I was really surprised that everything was so intense between Helen and Lucas after that. They went from attempts to kill each other to the need to fight an intense attraction for each other. Of course, as we begin to truly learn some things about them it all falls into place, but I think that aspect of the story could have been executed differently. 
 All in all, this was an awesome story. I really felt for the characters! I didn't want anything bad to happen to them and every time one of them got upset or hurt, my heart broke for them. I truly adored Lucas and can't wait to see what him and Helen do in their future--forbidden love at its finest. Aside from some characters being too quick to trust others, I can't find any faults in this awesome tale rich with mythology.
