Bookroo's summary

In ancient Greece, Atalanta is unmatched in hunting and speed, but a prophecy warns her against marriage. When her kingly father demands she wed, she devises a cunning plan to preserve her independence. Can she outwit her father's will and the whims of the gods, or will destiny catch up with her? Dive into a tale of defiance, freedom, and the unpredictable hands of fate.

From the publisher

Atalanta is the best hunter, swiftest runner, and the all-around most eligible bachelorette in ancient Greece. She’s also a woman with a secret: a fortune-teller has given her a stern warning to never marry. When her father–a powerful king–insists that she choose a husband, she hatches a clever plan to hold onto her freedom. Will Atalanta be able to outrun her father’s demands? Will the gods intervene in her story? And will fate catch up with her in the end?
