Sometimes magic isn’t enough when love is in the balance. After years of hiding, it’s finally Jake’s turn to find love… Or is it? Will Cupid’s arrow bite him or bounce off the woman who could complete his life? Diocail, in the guise of Jake, has to deal with the ultimatum his father, the God Lugh, handed down. Before he can return home, he must find his predestined mate and make her fall for him. Simone is hurt when she realises that her long-term lover Nathan has cheated on her. An encounter with Jake fuels her desire, but she’s not sure that she is willing to risk her emotions again. But when Senuna, a goddess from Jake’s past, starts to mix things up, the situation goes from bad to worse. Now Jake has to make Simone see that they have a future, and he has to deal with a deranged goddess—and all without the magic of Cupid. |
