This book in 6 words:

should have stayed a short story

Why did I read this? And am I glad I did?

This would have been the perfect holiday short story. Instead it was added to in unnecessary ways and dragged. I felt like Aiden was extremely repetitive and that his story was a little overdone. I liked Leta and the way she was related to those we already know. I didn’t hate the overall plot and I teared up at the end. Add that to the overall message that people tend to want to believe the negative over the posititve, and this one barely gets three stars.

I’m hoping the next one is better. Either way I’m almost to Archeron’s book (which is HUGE!) and I can’t wait!!!

Favorite Quotes

Trust me, it’s not the lies that hurt people. It’s the willingness of everyone else to believe them.

Brief Summary

Ever think Scrooge had it right before the ghosts ruined his life? Meet Aidan O’Conner.
At one time he was a world-renowned celebrity who gave freely of himself and his money without wanting anything in return…until those around him took without asking. Now Aidan wants nothing of the world—or anyone who’s a part of it.

When a stranger appears at his doorstep, Aidan knows he’s seen her before…in his dreams.Born on Olympus as a goddess, Leta knows nothing of the human world. But a ruthless enemy has driven her from the world of dreams and into the home of the only man who can help her: Aidan. Her immortal powers are derived from human emotions—and his anger is just the fuel she needs to defend herself…

One cold winter’s night will change their lives forever…
Trapped together in a brutal winter storm, Aidan and Leta must turn to the only power capable of saving them—or destroying them both: trust.
