A. K. A. Goddess (Silhouette Bombshell) [Mass Market Paperback]

Evelyn Vaughn (Author)

Book Description

Series: Silhouette Bombshell | Publication Date: August 1, 2004

This wasn't in my job description....

Reporting a break-in, avoiding my overprotective exlover, dodging dangerous men out to kill me...not exactly a typical day for a comparative mythology professor. So how did I, Maggie Sanger, get mixed up in all this?

It started with a family legend that connects me to a goddess and charges me with recovering the grail she hid away ages ago. Apparently some powerful people heard the story and are bent on destroying the grail at any cost--including my life. Now I have to find it before the enemy closes in....

The Grail Keepers: Going for the Grail with the goddess on their side.

5.0 out of 5 stars Indiania Jones Would Envy This Adventure, August 31, 2004

This review is from: A. K. A. Goddess (Silhouette Bombshell) (Mass Market Paperback)

In A.K.A. Goddess, our heroine, Maggi Sanger, seeks to find the legendary grails of mythical goddesses. Her personal and professional interest intensifies when her notes are stolen and her great-aunt assaulted in Paris. What happens next is a tense archaelogical adventure Indiana Jones would envy -- a quest for ancient artifacts, warring secret societies, regal bloodlines, car chases, and near-death situations.

Populated with charming secondary characters, A.K.A. Goddess also has an engaging love story between Maggi and her childhood-to-college sweetheart, Lex Stuart, privileged and wealthy beyond imagination, honorable and yet not quite trustworthy. It's a testament to Vaughn's character development and storytelling skills when one isn't sure if the hero is a bad guy, right up until the last ten pages.

A.K.A. Goddess is part of a longer series called The Grail Keepers, which place Maggi and her friends on added quests for more goddess grails. The next book is due out in November, and I'm definitely adding it to my Bombshell collection.

This review is from: A. K. A. Goddess (Silhouette Bombshell) (Mass Market Paperback)

I don't know what to say...This is a great book! I coulnd't put it down! I loved the Goddess grail and Holy grail story lines. I really hope Ms. Vaughn continues to write many more of these Goddess Grail books. P.S. You don't have to be a fan of Silhouette books to like this book. I only picked it up because of the title and I'm familar w/Ms. Vaughn's other works!

4.0 out of 5 stars My most beloved romance novel, June 17, 2006

magiccatsmother "magiccatsmother" (Australia) - See all my reviews

This review is from: A. K. A. Goddess (Silhouette Bombshell) (Mass Market Paperback)

Mystery-better then the de vinci code
it also suggested the blood line of Jesus Christ, but she can actually write and her characters are more realistic to me no albino monks in sight, and she doesn't talk down to you
Feminism without man hating, and also not christian hating either while it does hint at conspiracy the man who is helping her solve it was a priest
Intellegent main charachers for example the main character has a doctorate in comparitive mythology (I can not think of any other romance story where the womans job is more interesting and important then the mans)
**spoiler** anonther thing I like is not everything is simple or clear cut in the end...like life
