Description: Grace is
sexologist . Yet his love life is a desert, which is unappealing when you come to be twenty-nine years! precisely, to celebrate his birthday, Grace did not hesitate to open the magic book of Selena and her friend to invoke three times at midnight Julian of Macedonia, condemned by the gods of antiquity to offer his mistresses absolute pleasure. This is just a legend ... But what does this man to die for beautiful and naked in the Garden of Grace?
Thanks must go to the obvious. As a birthday gift, she was entitled to the ideal man! He has no right to love? Whatever, it will find a way to release her from her spell!

My opinion:
How to introduce this book without saying too much bad things? No I think it will not be sorry.
We are dealing here with a story worthy of a Harlequin bad, you know these stories of love and completely filled with kitsch clichés?

Here in the list of clichés we find:

- A man, Julian of Macedonia, which is the handsomest man in the world, strong, sexy, intelligent, who falls in love with a woman so commonplace that all women who drool over him and cross s offer it to him ... and this man is a "escalve of love", sentenced to satisfy all the women who call upon him.

- This man is of course a demigod and obviously had a life and a terrible childhood, he is hated by his family, never had any friends and is doomed never to be loved ( if not it sad that ...)

- A woman, Grace Alexander, a sexologist, but it has no sex life, which has had only one lover to 29 years and has obviously never had an orgasm (and guess who is going to give 6 as a result? hey hey)

- So a woman, very down to earth, who never believed in what her best friend, Selena made her life: clairvoyance and fortune-telling but that swallows without flinching a guy landed a book for him serve as a sexual object.

- A man and a woman thus condemned to live together and are longing for 1 month without ever being able to satisfy their desire.

- An end like "they lived happily and had many children" with a scene in which we find our protagonists to motherhood, they just had twins: boy and girl, the daughter was named after the mother of Julian, who is none other than Aphrodite, goddess of love, that he has hated for 2,000 years but with whom he is reconciled course (that would otherwise not a happy ending).

Finally here I am in the process and best, I found this boring book, full of cliches and repetitive scenes, with a bogus story and use of Greek mythology that sounds like an excuse for lack of a actual plot.
In short, the saga of the Dark-Hunters to stop me the first volume.
Feel free to consult other reviews, which may be better than mine: p
