"You didn't just run from your past... you ran straight into my future."
In the golden days following Odysseus's return to Ithaca, peace finally blankets the kingdom. The royal family-Odysseus, Penelope, and their son Telemachus-step into a new life, one no longer defined by war or waiting. But fate, as always, has other plans.
Y/N, a strong-willed young noblewoman, is being forced into marriage with a man she does not love-a stranger who won't take no for an answer. When no one listens, she does the only thing she can: she runs. Deep into the forest, deep into the unknown... and straight into the arms of the prince of Ithaca.
One look, and everything changes.
As Telemachus and Y/N fall hard and fast, gods take notice. Hermes grins like a brother. Athena approves like a guardian. Odysseus trains her in the art of the bow, and Penelope-reluctantly-welcomes her as a daughter. But the past doesn't vanish so easily, and when her old life comes crashing into her new one, the royal family must decide where their loyalties lie.
With stolen kisses, divine mischief, and battles of heart and blade, EPIC: A New Dawn is a story of freedom, found family, and a love written in the stars.
