Synopsis

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.

Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed this book, but it was such a short read and hard to believe...but it's full of gods, so there's not much room..LOL. The thing I didn't get was how, in the course of a few hours, they fell in love. I mean Aiden is so full of hate, and a girl shows up at his cabin in the middle of nowhere, and he takes a nap...please! Then, he accepts she was in his dreams and all of a sudden he starts to fall in love. I don't know, maybe it's just me, but, I think there needed to be a bit more of a build up. But that's my opinion, and I will continue to read all her books in the hopes that I find those gems like the Dark-Hunters again....Acherons story is out August '08...yummy!

Hoping for anything better only led to bitter disappointment. No, this was his life. He'd be alone until the day he died. Aww, poor Adrian! He's only the biggest movie star on the planet who has millions of dollars so he can live the rest of his life without working ever again. Okay, I get th......more

Goodreads review by Duchess Nicole on December 28, 2013

This series has become so tedious to read. I'm just desperately trying to make it to Acheron's book. But there is no Acheron here, so it was such a waste of time. This story was made of all kinds of cheese and so predictable, I literally knew what was going to happen within the first couple of chapt......more

Goodreads review by Gavin on December 28, 2015

This felt more like a novella rather than a full Dark-Hunter book and I think both the romance and the story suffered a bit from having less time to grow. That said, this still had plenty of the usual elements (the humour, the romance, and the mythology) that make the Dark-Hunter series so fun to re......more

Goodreads review by CC on January 15, 2016

This was short. It would have been better but for 2 things. The hero was a whiney bitch for almost the entire book. It got old fast. Poor little rich boy, people were mean to him. I get they were really mean. But still. Get over it dude. Bad shit happens. People suck. But not ALL people. Whaa-whaa-w......more
