The concept of this book grabbed me from the start.  Pitting the god of fertility against the god of chastity, in modern times no less...how could that NOT be interesting?  Alas, I was not disappointed.  Syrinx was exactly how I might have expected her to be: judgmental, but just hypocritical enough to make you like her.  Pan was a sexy ball of loveable.The pacing was even and easy to follow, though plot relied atypically heavily on secondary characters to move along.  Syrinx's evolution as a character was credited to her sister (whom I would love to have seen more of), while Pan's was due to his butler.There aren't any steamy love scenes, but I enjoy a sweet romances just as much as panty droppers so that didn't bother me.  The problem was it just didn't have much of any tension.  Aside from just being in the habit of wanting a happily ever after, I really didn't have a reason to root for these two to get together. Okay, so they both enjoy the forest and come from Mt Olympus.  Super.  SHOW me the draw they have to one another.  I just didn't feel it.That being said, it is a good, light romance that doesn't pull too much at your mood.  Perfect for a lazy summer read.
