TALL, DARK, AND DIVINE
Jenna Bennett

Romance Paranormal

Eros (Ross) -- the god of love -- is living in Manhattan and running a match-making service; although, Eros' love life has not been terribly successful of late, with his wife Psyche leaving him for a Norse demi-god. Eros works with Ariadne (Ari) -- the Cretan goddess of the labyrinth and Britomartis (Britta) -- the Cretan goddess of hunting. Ari & Britta decide Ross needs to get out and have some fun to get over being dumped, so they take him out to the local bar owned by Dionysius -- the god of wine & debauchery.

Annie Landon runs a dog bakery across the street from Made in Heaven Matchmaking. Annie is cute and curvy with long brown hair and blue eyes. She meets Ross at Dion's bar and is hoping for a chance to hook up. Ross decides to try to match Annie up with a local accountant Harry Mitchell out of a misguided sense of responsibility that he should be setting up two mortals together.

What ensues is a cute romantic romp as Ross tries to avoid and ignore his growing feelings for Annie and push her and Harry together. Unfortunately, Harry is totally hung up on Britta and in his eyes; Annie does not measure up to a goddess. After a few disastrous dates, Ross decides to bring out the big guns, and uses his Cupid's bow & arrows to make sure Harry falls in love with Annie.

TALL, DARK, AND DIVINE is a cute, romantic comedy with plenty of heat and sizzle. Jenna Bennett did a fantastic job of bringing the Greek gods and goddess to life and placing them in modern society. I loved how she placed them in jobs that perfectly fit with their deity descriptions. This was a fun, quick read that I highly recommend.

SUMMARY

Eros, the Greek god of love, swore off the useless emotion after his ex ran off with some Viking godling. He’s lost all interest in his matchmaking business, Made in Heaven, until he spots the sweet baker who works across the street. Before she stirs his sullen heart, he’ll match her and get back to his ambrosia-laced wine in no time. Lonely baker Annie Landon has given up on finding Mr. Right. What she needs is Mr. Right Here, Right Now, and this so-called β€œGreek God” she’s heard is on the rebound sounds exactly like the perfect kind of distraction. But picking up the bitter, workaholic is easier said than done…especially when he seems unreasonably determined to match her with someone else. Can a woman looking for loveβ€”and the matchmaking god who wants her to find it with someone elseβ€”have a shot at a happy ending? May the best godβ€”or mortalβ€”win.
