The Maenad of Manhattan
by Liz Meldon
Genre: Paranormal Romance
The Maenad of Manhattan (Lovers and Liars #1)
The glory days of Ancient Greece are long gone, and the gods of the Old World are scattered across the globe. As their popularity dwindles, as their worshipers forget, their power fades. Luckily for Aphrodite, she’s a household name. After all, how could anyone ever forget the Greek goddess of Love?
Unfortunately, no one seems to know or care about her divinity. In a world of skeptics and technology-crazed mortals, loneliness and boredom have taken hold. Her life consists of romance advice columns, martini bars, and flings with empty-headed men—until she meets Loki.
She’s intrigued: it’s been decades—centuries even—since she laid eyes on another god, particularly one outside her pantheon. In their short—albeit incredibly sexy—time together, she realizes just how much she needs the companionship of one of her own. Loki, however, seems more interested in catching a murderous maenad than swapping stories about the old days.
Can she convince Loki to stay and make her life a little less lonely, or will he persuade her to join him on his quest for more worshipers? His questionable tactics make her uneasy, but how can she turn down the opportunity to live as she once did: freely, powerfully, and lustfully as Aphrodite of Olympus.

I have read this book before, and I loved it more now than I did the first time. I love Mythology and in this book you have the Greek goddess Aphrodite and the Norse god Loki. I thought it was fast pace and very well written. The chemistry between the two was hot. It does take place in the modern world. If you like books about the gods and goddesses mixed in with some supernatural this is the book for you. It is definitely a steamy book, that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Great Job.
