So, I loved this book. Zed and Sky are so cute together! He is simply adorable! It was funny and the romance was just so cute!! Definitely a good read.
I do have some complaints, though.
It had what I call a "weak beginning". It wasn't that it wasn't interesting, it just didn't manage to grab me and I found myself wondering from the story, often having to read one paragraph twice. After she met Zed things picked up a bit and near the end they were simply great.
I had a hard time getting used to Sky's speech at the beginning. As part of her traits, she uses a lot of metaphors and the whole making things into stories. There were some beautifully written stuff, but I had to get used to the way her brain worked. It's not really a complaint, because that just who Sky is and later on, when Zed grounded her, we got much less of those.
I also didn't like that at first she kept calling them Gods and Mortals. I don't know why, but the once or twice she did that didn't rub well with me.
I did love Sky's personality, and I loved Zed. He was just the best 3 at first I didn't like him, but then he turned sweet!! It was so refreshing to see a hero who didn't shy from his feelings; once he fell in love with her, he told her so. He just put it out there, and was so patient with--well, everything.
I do think they make an incredible couple.
Now, some technical annoyance; the summary, at least the one here on Goodreads, revealed too much of the story. I would've liked to have been more surprised :/
