BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Selfish and gorgeous Greek God Triton is cast out of Olympus after seducing Zeus’ mistress and can only gain reentry if he finds a woman who loves him for his kindness and selflessness, not his beauty. When the mortal Sophia – recovering from an eye operation and virtually blind – needs a home healthcare worker, he takes on the role, hoping she will be his ticket home.
While defending Sophia from an unknown adversary, Triton’s protective instinct emerges. At the same time rival Gods do everything to doom him to failure. And even if Triton can win Sophia’s love, will he throw it away to return home, or will he lose his own heart to the only woman who truly sees him?
A Touch of Greek is the first book in the humorous and sexy paranormal romance series Out of Olympus following the romantic adventures of four Gods: Triton, Dionysus, Eros, and Hermes.
REVIEW:
What an interesting story. I was surprised at how much I liked this book. I have only read one other book that had to do with god/goddess and thought it was only “ok” but from the synopsis I thought this book would be funny so I decided to read it and I was pleasantly surprised. While I am not sure I would say it is funny it is enjoyable.
I enjoyed Triton and his god friends. And I enjoyed Sophia even though she was written as a helpless female. She did have some spirit about her which helped redeem her helplessness. But it really is Triton’s story more than Sophia’s if you ask me and that was just fine. I am not sure that this falls into a paranormal story, if anything it fits more into contemporary then paranormal even though it has the whole god theme, especially since Triton has lost his powers for most of the book.
This is a fun read. It is written very well. I had never read anything by this author before but I would enjoy reading the rest of this series. If you enjoy romances with a twist them I think you will really enjoy this book.
