I tried very hard to dislike Apollo, really I Did! Even after I became endeared to him he still managed to make to "not like" him at times.
He is mercurial and hard to read often but it doesn't detract from his realness & passion.
Callie is sweet but sassy ... I like her ... a lot! I cried with Callie & loved with Callie ... I identified with Callie!
Ares was an absolute joy to read about; I wanted to hug him & I wanted to cry for him a couple times.
These characters are so well described they eazily become real; I have clearly defined "pictures" of them in my head.
This book was an absolute joy to read & I also enjoyed the Bonus Epilouge!
