Goddess Interrupted By Aimee Carter





First off thank you Harlequin for sending me a copy of this book for review.
I just received it today and already cant put it down. Makes me want to study mythology.

This book will be released on March 27 2012.


Summary :

WHAT IF IMMORTALITY ISN’ T FOREVER?
KATE WINTERS HAS WON IMMORTALITY.
BUT IF SHE WANTS A LIFE WITH HENRY IN THE UNDERWORLD, SHE’LL HAVE TO FIGHT FOR IT.
Becoming immortal wasn’t supposed to be the easy part. Though Kate is about to be crowned Queen of the Underworld, she’s as isolated as ever. And despite her growing love for Henry, ruler of the Underworld, he’s becoming ever more distant and secretive. Then, in the midst of Kate’s coronation, Henry is abducted by the only being powerful enough to kill him: the King of the Titans.
As the other gods prepare for a war that could end them all, it is up to Kate to save Henry from the depths ofTartarus. But in order to navigate the endless caverns of the Underworld, Kate must enlist the help of the oneperson who is the greatest threat to her future.
Henry’s first wife, Persephone.My thoughts:

First of all thank you Aimee for not using the greek names all the time. I’ve never been interested in greek mythology before so if Aimee always referenced the gods in the book I would be completely lost.AS IM WRITING THIS IM STRUGGLING WITH MYSELF!! I WANT TO WRITE ABOUT THIS BOOK FOREVER BUT I CANT BECAUSE THEN I WOULD SPOIL IT FOR EVERYONE.




This book is not the type of book I pick up and to be honest with you I prob wouldn’t. I’ve never even heard about the first book which I might add that I will def pick up by next week.I never wanted this book to end. I fell in love with the story. I never picked up a book I never liked because I always go for the same ones , fallen angels ,werewolfs,vampires,witches etc. I love all my books and theyre different of course but always what I expected them to be. I lost the element of surprise.




How can I explain???Its kinda like when your kid. You ask your parents for dolls ,movies etc and you always got them . Of course it was a perfect gift and made you truly happy deep down inside you knew it was coming! Reading this book for me was like asking my parents for a doll and then when my birthday arrived a received a puppy instead. This book made me jump with excitement after reading just a few pages.


This book was intense and I loved every moment. I even for this first time cursed that I had to be up early the next morning because I didn’t want to put it down without finishing it. Last night I didn’t care how long it took or how grumpy I was this morning I was determined to finish the book I started the previous night. Mission Accomplished.

I am grumpy this morning and not because of the lack of sleep because I would pull an all nighter for this book, I was upset because it was over!

=(

Not only was it over but the author added such a cliffhanger for the closing of the book that made me scream. I now await for the release of the 3rd book.
It was easy to relate to every character of this book. For instince Persephone.Every girl has had a sibling that was completely perfect, that could do no wrong and made you feel like you failed in comparison. Henry was every typical guy I ever dated. Hard on the outside but soft in the inside just took EONS to get a glimpse of any kind of emotion.


Ok now I feel like truly going to ramble on and spoil the book.I guess you guys are going to have to buy the book to relate to how I feel right now.

Trust me you wont be disappointed.Aimee has truly made me become interested in Greek mythology and books relating to it. I will never walk by those books again.It takes a lot to change my mind or my view on things especially types of books I like. My fiancé would be shocked if he knew someone actually changed my persepective on things.

GOOD JOB AIMEE !!!
