Given a fair trial, Aphrodite begins to explain the story of two romances during WWI to prove or answer the age old question: Why are love and war eternally drawn to one another? And which is more powerful? Characters On the verge of a second world war, the goddess of love, Aphrodite, and the god of war, Ares, find themselves caught in the middle of an affair by Hephaestus. Genre: historical fiction, romance, fantasy The cast is amazing, the music is inspiring! Lovely War by Julie Berry I think it was Book Riot’s All the Books, discussing it when it was released? Either way, I highly recommend this book in audiobook format, if you have the chance. I honestly do not remember how I came across this book. Let them start their dreadful wars, let destruction rain down, and let plague sweep through, but I will still be here, doing my work, holding humankind together with love like this.
