A lyrical modern Greek mythology retelling about agency, consent, and a love that burns across centuries - beautifully written, emotionally devastating, and impossible to forget.
Perfect for readers of Madeline Miller, Jennifer Saint, and Natalie Haynes.
Inspired by the myth of Prometheus - the Titan who stole fire from the gods to give it to humanity.
Every foolish thing humanity has ever done has been done for power, or love... or love of power.
The gods are no exception.
When a mortal priestess is chosen by the gods to prevent humanity's extinction, she becomes a pawn in a divine power struggle she never agreed to play.
Prometheus - creator of humankind and Titan of foresight - is certain sending her to Earth will unleash consequences even the Olympians cannot control. He refuses to aid the goddesses' plan.
He also refuses to fall in love.
Especially not with a woman destined to be sacrificed for the greater good.
But when Prometheus steals white fire - a symbol of the gods' forbidden knowledge - and places it in the priestess's hands, the Fates shift.
Humanity will never be the same again.
A new era will begin.
But every gift from the gods carries a price.
And some loves are destined to burn the world down.
Prometheus' Priestess is the first standalone novel in the Femme Fatale series - modern Greek myth retellings where ancient gods collide with modern women.
Trigger warning: contains themes of sexual assault.
