EROS

from the book 

DESTINED

by Jessie Harrell

When Psyche receives a prophecy gone horribly wrong, she learns that even the most beautiful girl in Greece can have a hideous future. Her fate? Fall in love with the one creature even the gods fear.
As she feels herself slipping closer into the arms of the prophecy, Psyche must choose between the terrifyingly tender touch she feels almost powerless to resist and the one constant she's come to expect out of life: you cannot escape what is destined.
Destined is a fresh and heartachingly romantic retelling of the Cupid & Psyche myth from debut novelist, Jessie Harrell.

I just finished reading the book, and I am still swooning over Eros. *sigh* What do you expect? He is the god of love after all. 

Facts about Eros:

• God of Love
• Son of Aphrodite
• Arrogant, but charming : )

Favorite Lines / Scenes:

"Because if I don't stop kissing you, I might never let you go."

...Eros whispered in her ear, "I will never hurt you Psyche. I love you more than my own life. Love me, please," he begged. "Love me."

Eros raised an eyebrow. "Me? Why should I change?" He bumped her shoulder with his. "I'm pretty perfect as is, don't ya think?"
"Mmmm..." Kalliste ran her hand up to his shoulder. "You are a treat for the eyes, but you're a murder on the heart."
