I have several of Frank's other series on my shelves unread (just haven't had the time to read them yet) but as this was the first in a new series, I thought I'd give it a shot even though I'm more of a vampire/shifter book reader. I've never been particularly drawn to the Gods/Goddesses books. Mainly because they don't seem to have a set of rules you can depend on. In a vampire/shifter book if you're dead, you generally stay dead or at least a vampire or shifter. When Gods and Goddesses are thrown into the mix, everything can change at their whim, so just not as fond of these worlds.
That said, I was pleasantly surprised at how much I did enjoy the story-line and the world building. I enjoyed the banter between Dethan and Selinda and loved that the story was told from Dethan's POV. There's not a lot of paranormal romance told from the guy's POV and I loved it. Probably the only thing I didn't like was Selinda's lack of backbone. I like a feisty heroine and fortunately Selinda found hers before it was too late.
I loved the flow and pace of the book. I started it in the afternoon and read straight through to the end. I'll definitely be reading the rest of the books in this series and will dig out her Nightwalker series as I know I'll love it based on how well I enjoyed the world of mythology that I normally avoid.
