![]() ![]() ![]() No love is easy though, and with war in the air, there's bound to be complications. Tender and innocent, not graphically described, but very meaningful and moving. They fall hard and fast, that sweet, young kind of romance that is all curiosity and wonder, and emotion. James is in love with her at first sight, but heads off to war two days later. ![]() These couples are against the odds - Hazel is sweet, determined, and a brilliant pianist. To save herself from public ridicule, Aphrodite begins a beautiful, tear-jerking story of two couples in WWI to show her husband (who doesn't love her anyway, but still wants her back) the power of love and why she, Aphrodite, needs to be with the one she loves. Hephaestus (Aphrodite's husband) catches them together, and threatens to expose them on trial in front of the entire community. The book starts at a hotel in WWII (richly described - very exotic and ominous, in my opinion), with Aphrodite and Ares alone and in love, but unmarried (quite the scandal). This author expertly writes from the viewpoint of Aphrodite, the greek goddess of love and passion. Plot is described below.įantastic writing, and a truly touching story combine in one of the best books I have ever read. This book has changed my life - a truly powerful, moving, and just touching story of love and friendship against all odds. I have no words for this display of magnificence in YA literature. ![]()
