'Lines of Love' by Brey Willows is the story of Eris Ardalides, the Muse of Love. A Muse who has lost any interest in love. As she sees it, love doesn't mean anything anymore. Why bother? Grace Gordon, a divorce lawyer, is privy to the worst of relationships, and has no desire to become entangled in one herself. Like Eris, sex is fine, just don't expect her to settle for anything less than perfection.
When Eris is sued for failing in her perceived duty to those seeking love, Grace takes on the case. Attraction is certainly a factor between them, but since they've both sworn off love, how can it ever work out? As they fight to save Eris's reputation and what it might mean for the rest of the gods and immortals, will they give in to their passion?
I love the world Brey Willows has created. She writes about the interaction between gods and mortals in a fascinating and engaging way. Although I've read the whole series, and the previous books about Afterlife Inc, there is no need to have done so to enjoy this book. It works just as well as a stand-alone. But you'd be missing out if you didn't check out the entire body of work.
This isn't just romance, there's peril and danger this time. And boy, does she know how to up the ante! It was great to have some of my favourite characters show up and play a part in this novel too. My favourite Afterlife Inc character, Dani, is always a welcome addition to any story.
It's emotional and passionate and utterly beautiful. Love conquers all. Brey Willows excels again.
I was given this ARC for review.
