Aphrodite's Kiss by Julie Kenner

I got this book free on my new kindle and decided to try it out since honestly, the last few books I've read have been a little depressing dealing with war, murder, rape, etc... Nice to change it up and read something a little more light-hearted. I would not say this is a favorite or anything, but it was ok to read. Zoe Smith is turning 25 and is a superhero halfling getting ready to turn in her papers to become a Protector. She first has to learn to control her super senses and learn all the simple things of being a superhero such as levitating and flying. Yeah, a little cheesy but it works. She's not suppose to get close to mortals, but of course she falls in love with one and has to figure out how to let him know and whether or not she just wants to become a mortal herself and give up all her memories of the superhero world. And of course, it couldn't be a great story without the bad guy, her cousin, trying to find a powerful artifact that Zoe just so happens to have in order to let his father control the world and enslave mortals. So of course she's going to save the day. Yeah, if you want to read a cheesy, light-hearted book that you don't have to really concentrate on or think about, this is a decent one to read.
