Review: Pretty good story with an interesting plot

I downloaded this book for free after reading the synopsis and thought it sounded interesting enough. The story is basing off the idea that the Greek gods from Mythology weren't really gods but humans that live very long lives and have different powers (like super strength or healing) and because normal people couldn't grasp that concept they instead made them to be gods. Of course there is a good faction and an evil faction and this story is your basic good vs. evil struggle with romance thrown in.I had a bit of a hard time getting into it at first but the story started to flow a bit better after about Chapter 3 and found the main character a bit on the annoying side with what felt like her constant apologizing for being a "burden". If you are one of those people where grammatical issues upset you, you will find a couple of those throughout. It doesn't bother me and there weren't enough or bad enough to disrupt the flow or my grasp on the story.So, why just 3 stars...it's a solid fantasy, romance story but it just fell a little flat for me. There wasn't anything that really gripped me that has made me want to read the other books in the series or really re-read this book again unlike other books that I've downloaded for free that I've read the entire series 4 and 5 times over because I just love the story.
