Dionysus, Greek god of wine and theater, is the world’s original playboy. But lately, he has been restless, moody, and he knows something is wrong. His carefree and bacchanal lifestyle is starting to feel like one long string of meaningless, sexual escapades. Even worse, he is suddenly aroused by the idea of marriage. And to top it all off, Josie Marino, the mouthy, disheveled, and eternally annoying woman who serves him coffee at the local bakery, sets him on fire.
Josie, a Toronto baker of Italian heritage, is not looking for love or lust. Especially not with Dionysus Iros, the most aggravating, demanding customer she'd ever had to serve. With his rippling muscles and sexy, knowing eyes, he's obviously trouble with a capital T. Unfortunately, he's also the star of her every X-rated dream. She’s known players like Dionysus before, and one of them almost got the better of her. Josie determines she will not fall for his considerable physical charms, come hell or high water.
But Dionysus turns strangely protective when a sinister character arrives at Josie's bakery, and they can no longer deny their unwanted feelings for one another. They are forced to embark on a bizarre, sexually-charged journey to hell itself, which threatens to either change them for the better, or destroy them.
My Review:
Dionysus, Greek God of Wine, is finding that he's in a slump. He decides to visit his cousin, Eryx, in Toronto. When he gets there, a delicious smell wafts towards him. He enters the Marino Brothers Bakery and is blown away by the vision strolling behind the counter. He becomes tongue tied, something that hasn't happened before.
Josie Marino works in her family’s Italian bakery but is underappreciated by her brothers. She's known guys like Dionysus Iros before, and doesn’t trust them as far as she can throw her famous canoli.
Over time, Dionysus begins to grow on her with his small praises. When Josie is unexpectedly locked in freezer, Dionysus comes to her rescue. A mystery man claims that Dionysus is Greek God and wants him to find his wife. Will Josie believe the truth? Will Dionysus find the man's wife? Will Josie realize her feelings? Will Josie's dream be out of reach? Your answers await you in Sweet Hell.

Sweet Hell is the second book in the Greek God Series. Once again Ms. Leo isn't afraid to show the softer side of her alpha males. I love how Josie is guarded in her feelings and I love that Dionysus is willing to admit his life isn't as perfect as he thought it was. Together, they are an unstoppable pair with exacting passions. I will continue to read this author's work and can’t wait to read the next book in the series.
