by Michelle Bardsley A cold afternoon and a great cup of coffee is all I had when I started and finished this book in one sitting. It was a fantastic and sexy read based on some Greek mythological characters you might remember from your school days, who help "mortals" find love in Las Vegas. Even though there are a lot of references to mythological characters, I was surprised how easily I "got" the references to the characters, which weren't overly abstract. Enough info was given about lesser known gods and goddesses. This book contains four short stories: "The Accountant and the Virgin," "The Stars in Her Eyes," "One Mile Up ...A Little to the Left," and "The Spy Who Rubbed Me." Each was good and taken as a whole, made this book a fun read. It's a toss up which story was my favorite. But the last story, "The Spy Who Rubbed Me" was very interesting and suspenseful in a very James Bond sort of way. The ending was perfect with Paul Aris, a reformed jewel thief, and Helen Manzana truly finding out why they were meant to be together. Michelle Bardsley's style of writing is fantastic. I was caught up in the stories, laughed out loud a few times and definitely lost track of time. The stories transport you to Vegas, and her writing makes you get involved in the characters and the plot. |
