Tane, the God of Light has been in love with Keely the Goddess of Deception since her creation. But Keely’s destination is with a mortal. Tane really wants someone to love and hangs out with Cupid. Cupid helps him to meet Amy, a kindergarten teacher, who Tane really becomes attracted to. After spending time with her, Amy seems to be smitten with him too. But Tane doesn’t realise how far Cupid would go when Keely forbids him to come to her Valentine’s Party. The God of Love has a reputation for interfering where he shouldn’t. He struck Amy with an arrow and then takes it out of her again while at the party. Now Tane has to try and win Amy on his own.

Now this is a fun read. It’s a simple story, with nice characters, some hot sex scenes and a good romance. Kara Griffin takes as her theme the world of the Gods and throws them together with mortals. It’s a nice premise with leads to interesting situations, especially when said humans find out that they have been dallying with Gods. Ms Griffin also adds a bit of comic relief to this story too. I did feel though that the characters could have been fleshed out a wee bit more and there could have been a bit more emotion in the story. I really enjoyed this story though and have enjoyed this author’s work before. If you like a good, interesting read, then please do have a look at Kara Griffin’s work.
