I received this book for review from the author.
Summary: All Grace Archer wants is to graduate from high school and get on with her life. But the Gods of Fate have other ideas. Attacked at graduation by a mysterious woman with gruesome henchmen, Grace is lucky to escape with her life. Rescued by a Fae warrior named Chris and her Aunt Phoenix, Grace learns that her mother was the Greek Goddess Pandora.
Now Grace must protect her mother's urn from the crazed demi-goddess Lilith, who is determined to unleash its horrors on an unsuspecting Earth. As if her blood legacy is not bizarre enough, Grace begins to develop frightening powers that threaten to destroy her from the inside out. Can Grace find the strength to defeat Lilith? Can she learn to control her powers before she loses her mind?
Thoughts: Grace Archer has just graduated from high school. A time that should be full of celebration. But she's just learned that her mother was Pandora (yes, that Pandora). At all cost she must protect her mother's urn and defeat the evil Lilith.
Foresight is a fast, fun read. A fantastical story that is wonderfully descriptive. Grace is a very interesting character, she is strong with a great personality. Very mature when her world is turned upside down, but also fun and snarky too. I look forward to seeing how her relationship with Chris will progress. This was a surprising read for me, I ended up really loving the story. I also loved that there was a mix of the fae and Greek Mythology. If your a fan of either I think your really gonna enjoy this story.
Score: 5 Stars

I just reviewed this one and did an interview with Sherry. I really liked it a lot. I love Greek Mythology and Pandora's Box is of course one of the most well known myths. I loved it and gave it a 5 out of 5 on my blog as well.
