Aphrodite knows love -- just don't ask her to figure out her own mess.

Rather than deal with her sticky love life, she toys with the hearts of unwitting humans. It's a little game she plays, and the stakes are high. Lucky for her, she's just found the perfect match.

Lex is everything Dean needs, but he can't have her.

It doesn't matter that her eyes speak to a long forgotten part of him, or that her art and poetry touch his shredded heart. She's off limits -- crossing that line would implode his band and everything he's ever cared about. There's only one option: stay away from her, no matter the cost. Even if the price is his heart.

Dean is everything Lex wants, but she can't take the risk.

The second she meets him, she knows her heart is in danger. She's convinced it's only attraction that has her hung up on the dark, quiet lead singer, but with every day that passes, she knows it's more. It's just that she can't put her heart on the line. She won't -- love has never been worth the sacrifice.

If only they knew they were just pawns in a much bigger game. And in the game of love, Aphrodite never loses.

Estranho

O livro possui uma premissa muito interessante e a narrativa é boa, mas para por aí. Vamos falar primeiro sobre o fato de alguns deuses simplesmente terem adotado outros nomes. Foi bizarro ler e ficar associado Perry a Perséfone e Dite (?) a Afrodite... O casal humano principal não tem química nenhuma, apesar de se declararem completamente apaixonados. Todos os relacionamentos são estranhos. O protagonista masculino é um babaca triste (sem contar que ele é descrito como um grande gostoso, mas essa descrição não convence de forma alguma!) e a protagonista uma chata medrosa. Infelizmente não deu pra engolir. Boa sorte pra quem for ler.
