Description from the publisher:
As the god of the sky, Zeus is used to coming first but he's about to learn the price of true love.
Zeus, God of Thunder, is looking for an adventure. So he opens a map, picks a spot, and rolls off on his custom Fat Boy toward Bisbee, Arizona. He’s heard it’s a cool place for bikers but he wasn’t expecting her. She’s everything he never knew he wanted. And as the king of the gods, he always gets whatever he desires.
Roxy Kincaid is perfectly happy tending bar and minding her own business. She doesn’t have time for all the bikers who arrive at Big Pete’s with a wallet full of a cash and romance on their minds. So when “Z” arrives looking like Motorcycle Barbie’s husband complete with the permatan, amazing hair, and a smile to make her spill her beer, she forces herself to remember why she’s done with men. Been there, done that, got two headstones, thank you very much.
Z has never been made to take no for an answer. Resistance to the god of thunder? Not a thing. But none of his usual charm is enough to break through Roxy’s defenses and Z is learning that Roxy is no ordinary mortal. Determined to show her his feelings are true, Z must access a source of love magic he never thought he’d use… not in a million years.
The universe’s oldest dog is about to learn some new tricks.
If you like stories about second chances at love no matter who you are, you'll love this Greek gods inspired paranormal romantic comedy from USA Today bestselling author Lisa Manifold.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This was the first story I have read from Lisa Manifold and I found it utterly charming and delightful. I started this series with the second book because I love Carrie Pulkinen. I have found that there is more of the fun and humorous paranormal romance to be devoured.
That’s what this story is… fun, humorous, steamy romance, great bantering dialogue, and a sweet story that kept me glued to the book from beginning to (I wish it didn’t have to) end.
I love the imaginative reworking of the Greek God characters that we all think we already know. Giving them a “mortal” existence – even if they are still immortal – is captivating.
Zeus, now known as Z, is full of ego with life coming easy to him for eons. Roxy believes herself to be cursed in love. Watching her bloom and him grow was exactly what my romantic heart loves to read.
Note: While I received this book as a gifted ARC via Booksprout, my opinions are my own and are given freely.
