A Touch of Greek: a fish-out-of water romantic comedy with a hunky Greek God

Selfish and gorgeous Greek God Triton is cast out of Olympus after seducing Zeus' mistress and can only gain reentry if he finds a woman who loves him for his kindness and selflessness, not his beauty. When the mortal Sophia - recovering from an eye operation and virtually blind - needs a home healthcare worker, he takes on the role, hoping she will be his ticket home.

While defending Sophia from an unknown adversary, Triton's protective instinct emerges. At the same time rival Gods do everything to doom him to failure. And even if Triton can win Sophia's love, will he throw it away to return home, or will he lose his own heart to the only woman who truly sees him?

Reseñas de la Crítica

Romantic Fluff.

I'm a huge fan of the Scanguards series so I went ahead and gave this book a try. I did enjoy this book it is a nice piece of romantic fluff, although I like the other series better. I am also a fan of stories with the Greek mythology included, my favorite being Sherrilyn Kenyon for romance and Percy Jackson for kids. The story line wouldn't have been my first pick, but since it was Tina Folsom I gave it a try. With that in mind I wasn't a huge fan of Triton, he does improve immensely which is why I continued on with the story. Overall a 3.5 rating. I will probably read the remaining books eventually, but I might wait for a sale. Narrator is good, he has a nice sexy voice.

Falling in love with a mortal

What did you love best about A Touch of Greek?

Titus learn to love Sophia and learns how to be in service to another losing his arrogance in the process. I find the characters comforting and refreshing.

What was one of the most memorable moments of A Touch of Greek?

Titus leaves Sophia thinking he is under a love spell and doesn't want to hurt her when he forgets her when the spell wears off, but once he realizes that he truly loves her, he can't stay away.

Have you listened to any of Eric G. Dove’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No, but he did a great job with the voices and was easy to listen too.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, I loved the story in book form and couldn't wait to hear the audiobook version. It didn't disappoint. It made my walking routine go by in a flash.

Any additional comments?

The Greek series is quirky, fun and sexy. You will like every moment with the gods. Folsom has a way to bring her characters to life and makes you want to know them.

Need new narrator!

I love to read and have read and loved all of Tina's books. I was very skeptical but found I liked to be able to listen & do other things at the same time. However, this narrator did not make it easy. When he just narrates he is good. His character voices are just AWFUL, especially women. Even worse is his fake southern accent which is atrocious.

Love is blind.

I apsolotly love greek mythology! And I always appreciate a good romance about one of the Greek Gods. I did see bad reviews on this book so I was skeptical, but I went with my first instinct and listened to it anyway. And I wasn't disappointed. So good!

A fun excape with meddling gods and romance

Would you listen to A Touch of Greek again? Why?

Yes. Because it is is a short but sweat and entertaining story and the reading was well done.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Triton was my favorite character. Because I always enjoy seeing a bad boy get schooled into recognizing his bad deeds and making amends for them. And it's even better when finding love is the prompting force.

Which character – as performed by Eric G. Dove – was your favorite?

Triton, of course. But I also thought he did a good job, as usual, on the other characters as well.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes.

Any additional comments?

Sometimes you just want to read something short and sweet with a little bit of romance and comedy thrown in to escape from the boorishness and stress of your real life. For me, “A Touch of Greek” was just that. I always love reading good books with gods in them and if it’s got some romance and funny parts too then even better. Sure the premise wasn’t exactly original but I thought it was well paced and entertaining. The characters were believable and drew me in to either root for them or wish for their quick downfall. It was so entertaining that I finished it in one day of almost nonstop listening. The reading by Eric G. Dove was also well done. I’m happy to add this to my collections of romance books involving meddling gods and look forward to others from Tina Folsom.
