The ancient and sun-kissed island of Santorini is just the place for Christa Moorman after her breakup with longtime boyfriend, Emil. She isn't heartbroken. She just wants away from her job, New York, and him.

Long, lazy weeks lying on the beach soothe her soul and lull her into a peace that is upended by a chance encounter with an old man, a sexy statue of the god Eros, and its guardian.

Her life grows even stranger when she meets Kallistos Erastís, a decidedly different and decidedly gorgeous businessman of the erotic type. As her days grow hot and her nights hotter, she wonders if she's ready for love, and this time she's going to hold out until she gets her god.
