Paper Fools by Staci Hart


                                          🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 out of 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Synopsis:
Aphrodite knows love — just don’t ask her to figure out her own mess.

Rather than deal with her sticky love life, she toys with the hearts of unwitting humans. It’s a little game she plays, and the stakes are high. Lucky for her, she’s just found the perfect match.

Lex is everything Dean needs, but he can’t have her.

It doesn’t matter that her eyes speak to a long forgotten part of him, or that her art and poetry touch his shredded heart. She’s off limits — crossing that line would implode his band and everything he’s ever cared about. There’s only one option: stay away from her, no matter the cost. Even if the price is his heart.

Dean is everything Lex wants, but she can’t take the risk.

The second she meets him, she knows her heart is in danger. She’s convinced it’s only attraction that has her hung up on the dark, quiet lead singer, but with every day that passes, she knows it’s more. It’s just that she can’t put her heart on the line. She won’t — love has never been worth the sacrifice.

If only they knew they were just pawns in a much bigger game. And in the game of love, Aphrodite never loses.


I had some reservations about reading this book. I read the synopsis and thought that it sounded amazing but I wasn't sure hoe the author could make the gods/goddesses of Olympus work in tandem with a romance story between two humans. I obviously decided to read it because it sounded too good to pass up. I am so happy that I did!!!

This book was amazing! I loved how I got to read the different points of view not only from the characters that were on earth but also from Aphrodite as well. I loved learning about the world of Olympus from the author's point of view. I thought that Staci Hart made that world different enough that it was refreshingly new to readers. I found it particularly interesting that the gods would hold competitions between two of them at a time in order to discourage discourse between them on a regular basis. 

This book was just so refreshing! I'm not going to lie. I have read books with a similar story line to the parts of the book that take place on earth between Lex and Dean.  The thing that made the book so unique was adding the gods and goddesses into the mix. Getting to take a peak into that world and knowing that they are attempting to manipulate things in the lives or mortals makes this a book that I didn't want to put down! 

If you are looking for something new and unique, I promise that you won't regret reading this book!!! Staci Hart nailed it!!!
