In a game of the gods, librarian Lisandra, who has never been loved, is chosen to be the goddess of fertility. The demi-god of pleasure, Assarian is ordered by Zeus to train her in the hallowed halls of Mount Olympus to prove to his wife, Hera, goddess of marriage, mortals and immortals alike only need be physically satisfied to find fulfillment, to which Hera disagrees—all creatures must have love to be whole.

USA TODAY bestselling, and award-winning author and creator of award-winning teddy bears who have found homes all over the world including Australia, Switzerland, China, and Russia, and a retired officer of the US Army Reserves, I love to plant trees and flowers and if I could, I'd turn all the deserts green. Time travels are my favorite read, although I love to read most anything, and the Bourne series, Romancing the Stone, Sixth Sense, Legend, The Princess Bride, Stardust, Inkheart, LOTR, and tons of other movies are my favorites.

I love to research, to make urban fantasy worlds real, to bring a little of the paranormal into our world. Even in "Winning the Highlander's Heart" the heroine feels she is cursed and she has second sight. But I try to do it in a way that feels real, and not fantasized. :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Be Prepared to be Entertained!
Reviewed in the United States on March 8, 2011
Hera and Zeus have different ideas about sex, love and fulfillment. Hera believes all mortals and immortals must be loved to feel complete. Zeus believes physical satisfaction is good enough for fulfillment.

Lisandra is a librarian, who has lived a sheltered life when it comes to men. She is the perfect candidate for the gods' game. Zeus sends Assarian, the demi-god of pleasure, to seduce Lisandra. Only Assarian finds the task not as simple as he had thought.

Lisandra may be inexperienced, but the woman knows what she wants out of a relationship and won't settle for less. Assarian thought he could seduce and forget the woman. He soon finds out there's more to romance and love than a quick tumble in bed.

Be prepared for the gods to entertain you in this short romantic tale. Be sure to check out Terry Spear's paranormal romances. You won't be disappointed.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing
Reviewed in the United States on June 10, 2011
Verified Purchase
I like the writing of Terry Spear and was intrigued by the premise. Unlike her other works, the idea was the only interesting part - the characters were flat, dialogue inconsistent, and the protagonist seemed motivated by the necessities of the storyline rather than by her own moral code. The conclusion of the story (and it is a story rather than a novel or novella) occurs compliments of a deus ex machina that is astonishing in its lack of cohesion with the rest of the piece as well as in its speed. Unanswered questions abound, leaving the impression that either this was unedited, was a first draft, or was a very early work of Spear's.
