Something True

by Kieran Scott
YAC book PRMS hardcover 279 pages
genre: YA romance

This is book three in a trilogy, but that's not what made it "not work" for me. True Olympia is actually Eros, but she's been banished to earth to be a normal mortal teenager until she can join three couples ("love matches") and return to Olympus. Her beloved, Orion, has had his memory wiped by Zeus, and he is dating Darla who is pathetically attached to Veronica Vine, an absolutely shallow and selfish girl.

Misunderstandings and love triangles ensue. Artemis and Apollo get Hera's permission to head to earth to confront Eros. Yada yada.

My favorite parts were when Orion had flashes of memory of his previous life. I liked Hephastus as Heath, too. I'll donate this rather than spend money buying books 1 and 2 to have a complete set.
