3.0 out of 5 stars Almost a Goddess
Ever since Zeus decided to modernize Olympus, life has been a pain for the lesser beings that reside there. Gone are the traditional acoutrements of Greek myth, replaced by ultra-modern, ergonomic gizmos designed for efficiency. Performance reviews are given periodically, and for the three unknown muses, Kyra, Zoe, and Chloe, the news is not good. Zeus has found his...

This review is from: Almost a Goddess (Goddess, Book 1) (Mass Market Paperback)
Judi McCoy has crafted a fun to read book with an inventive plot, sexy main characters, and supportive secondary characters that add to the story without taking it over.

Kyra's daily "tributes" to Zeus are hilarious and add depth to the character.
Jake's concern for his mothers welfare shows his sensitive side without making him a "wimp".

I highly recommend this book to everyone, it was a great read, with laugh-out-loud moments that have you rooting for the characters to get together the whole way!

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun light-hearted read, May 30, 2006
This review is from: Almost a Goddess (Goddess, Book 1) (Mass Market Paperback)
Kyra, the Muse of Good Fortune, is a daughter of Zeus. The only problem is her father thinks his daughter is doing a less than stellar job.

After her performance review Zeus gives her one year to go to Earth and make its inhabitants believe in good luck again. What better place to go than Las Vegas? Only one condition. No flings with mortals.

Jake Lennox is a gambler who accepts a job from his "uncle" to find out who's been causing money losses at his Las Vegas Hotel. And the first person Jake suspects is Kyra.

Almost A Goddess is a fun light-hearted read that will have the reader falling in love with the characters. Kyra is an optimistic muse who struggles with 21st Century technology, including e-mails from Zeus.

Jake is a good-hearted man who wants to do right by everyone he knows.

When the two of them meet they find their way into each other's hearts. Readers will love watching the two fight their inner conflicts while they fight their attraction for each other.

Add into that visits from Hermes and other goddesses and you've got a fun summer read that will make you thank your lucky stars you bought this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Delighful Story, May 31, 2006
This review is from: Almost a Goddess (Goddess, Book 1) (Mass Market Paperback)
Almost a Goddess is an entertaining, thoroughly enjoyable book. It has a fun setting (Las Vegas), likeable characters, and a delightful romance. The premise is interesting and unique. Judy McCoy does a terrific job of making you care about Krya and Jake. I read this book in one day, and highly recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Fun And Light Escape, April 12, 2009
This review is from: Almost a Goddess (Goddess, Book 1) (Mass Market Paperback)
I picked up Judi McCoy's "Almost A Goddess" on a whim. I'm glad I did. I can't help but think that the producers of the TV Show "Cupid" may have gotten some of their ideas from this book. It is light and humorous with a touch of adventure and magic. It is ideal for the beach or late at night. If you like to laugh, I highly recommend this book. It is the first in a trilogy.

If you need something to help you escape from this world. This is a book to do it for you. I was laughing during most of this book with the misadventures of both the main characters. Heartwarming and fun. Excellent beach reading.

5.0 out of 5 stars "Almost a Goddess" Entirely Delightful, July 20, 2006
This review is from: Almost a Goddess (Goddess, Book 1) (Mass Market Paperback)
I read vampire romance. Period. So when a friend insisted I would enjoy this sexy, funny fantasy about Greek gods, demi-goddesses, and Sin City???, I had my doubts. But, after scoffing for a page or two, I had to admit, I was having a great time. I took the book with me everywhere--and stayed up late so I could finish. (Sorry, no spoilers from me!)
