Aphrodite's Passion (Aphrodite)

Book Description:
Julie Kenner has come up with a nifty premise that's quirky and full of fun. In the world she introduced in Aphrodite's Kiss and revisits here in Aphrodite's Passion, the old gods are still around today and still meddling in the affairs of mortals. Among their best agents is Hale, descendant of the gods, a tall, dark, and handsome guy with super powers who has sworn never to lose his heart to a mortal. In Aphrodite's Passion, the gods have finally traced a long-missing artifact, Aphrodite's Girdle. This legendary belt, which makes any mortal irresistible and any god all-powerful, is currently in the possession of Tracy Tannin, the granddaughter of a famous actress -- a so-called goddess of the sliver screen. Tracy has no idea that the funky fashion accessory she's inherited is magical. But Hale knows that's why this average young woman is suddenly irresistible to everyone -- including some very dangerous enemies. He needs to act quickly to retrieve the powerful artifact before it ends up around the wrong waist, but there are a couple of complicating factors. First, there are rules that limit Hale's options for retrieval. And second, Hale has unexpectedly lost his once-mortal-proof heart to Tracy...even when she isn't wearing the girdle that commands Aphrodite's Passion.

As good as the first one. Perfect fodder for a vacation.
I sent this book along with Aphrodite's Passion to CheriePie on July 05. Enjoy, Cherie!
Thanks NeedSun! These two books, Aphrodite's Kiss and Aphrodite's Passion look interesting. Thanks for sending them along. I'll let you know what I think. :)
Rather than languish on Mt. TBR, this is heading out for a vacation with noumena12. I've many other series to catch up on before starting new ones Ann, so feel free to keep this as long as you need. (heh, as if... that girl gobbles up her books entirely too fast! ;) )
Mailed to noumena12 along with Bitten (RABCK) on 27-Feb-2007 via Media Mail.
