Maia Douglas is an expert on ancient Greece, its mythology and she is in love with a statue. The statue of Eryx, Greek god of love has been at the museum since Maia’s dad worked there. Eryx has been visiting museums for decades, posing as Eric Lord. When Maia sees him, she automatically thinks he looks like Eryx but everyone knows Gods aren’t real, right? Eric has sworn off women because he has one that he can’t seem to shake. He finds himself having to protect Maia vengeful goddess who will not see Eric loving anyone but her.I’m not sure what happened with this book. It’s not very long so I should have been able to read it within a day, but it took me 3 days to get through this book. I likedthe story and I like the characters but I guess it was the delivery of the story that was off for me. I didn’t really get into the story until around chapter 12.  There are plenty of steamy scenes and I loved the visits from the other gods and goddesses. I’m a dialogue girl but oddly for this book I found that for the first 10 chapters or so, the lead into the dialogue is what was getting on my nerves. Not to say I wish they were out of the book because I can’t do books with little to no dialogue. I think what was disrupting the flow was how the author tried to give us the mood of the character.(I was given this book in exchange for an honest review)
