Description Concering Books Fantasy Lover (Hunter Legends Series #1)
Cursed into an eternity of slavery by his own brother, Julian of Macedon has spent centuries in hell, where the only respite he knows is measured in a handful of weeks whenever he’s summoned through an arcane spell. With the modern age, those summonings are becoming fewer and fewer, and he lives in fear of the day when they’ll stop for good.Grace Alexander doesn’t believe in much of anything. But when her “psychic” girlfriend talks her into performing the spell as a joke on her birthday, the last thing she ever imagines is it working. But work it does. Now, she finds an ancient Greek general in her living room and trapped in her life for the next month. Worse, they learn too late that part of the spell means Grace will lose her sanity should he return to his captivity.
Now it’s a race against time to free him. Something much easier said than done, since it was the ancient gods who cursed him to his fate. And the last thing they want is to see him go free of the punishment the gods believe he
deserves. It’s man against the gods, and a race against time.

WOW I love love love it!!!! Great book I would give it more than 5 stars I cant wait to read the rest of the series23/8/2016Yeap... I'll re-read the whole series!!***********************************************Dark Hunter is a very loved series for me. Being Greek I grew up with the legends and myths the series is based on and that just makes the series extra special. Growing up I had this set of books(eight of them) that were the re-telling of Greek Mythology written in simple words and illustrated for children. I loved those books. Since kindergarden my mother would read them to me every night. I remember
OH MY GOSHH!!!! Thanks to Aly, Ive found a new series to obsess about :)I was hooked to this story right from the start, I thought the story was going to be SUPER cheesy with all the guy steps out of a book and ends up falling for the girl...but NO, its not cheesy AT ALL.Grace is one of my fave heroines from this point on...and Julian, oh my...he is to die for!!!!Im in love with this series, and I hope this level of epicness goes on and on!!
This was an okay paranormal romance, but it dragged a bit.Grace was a woman who didnt have much experience with men, but knew that she didnt need one, no matter what her best friend told her. I liked that she didnt immediately drag Julian to bed when he showed up, even though she was attracted to him.The storyline in this centred on Julian trying to break his curse, and Julian and Grace slowly falling in love. That being said, although they spent time together, it still seemed like one moment
The best part of this book? Grace's dinner: Four pieces of pizza, two Hostess cupcakes, and four glasses of wine. Now, that's something I can relate to. Conjuring a Greek-god sex slave that finds the normal, slightly chubby Grace irresistible? Not so much.Considering how much this guy has been around....Anything Greek mythology related and I usually love it. There was a little bit of mythology, along with some Roman and Greek history. *But*, there was mostly a romance that included a lot of
I couldn't wait to finish this book... but for all the wrong reasons. Even a 2 star rating seems generous. Back in 2002, when this book first came out, it was probably fresh and exciting. But from then on a lot has evolved in UF/PNR-land and I think I've been 'spoiled' with good quality writing. The writing was extremely simplistic, repetitive and annoying. The POV changing wasn't done well at all. The story was (I know: even for a PNR about a 2000 year old Spartan demi God) totally unrealistic.
One moment while I confirm my blush in the mirror. Yup Im still crimson after reading this book. Holy Greek GAWDS this book was steamy, but definitely a helluva lot of fun to read. :D I loved the two main characters Julian and Grace. Their dialog, their interactions with each other, their moments wow!! All very squee-worthy and exciting.Fantasy Lover is definitely not my normal read, but every now and then, I enjoy putting some spice into the mix and this book definitely delivered. Its fast
