Publisher Description:

What would happen to our world if the ancient gods suddenly came to life? Are they the way we imagine them to be? The answers to these questions can be found in the fascinating novel by Allison Woods.
Ursula Peterson, known across Sweden as the best in creating exquisite headwear of the "Lux" class for women owns a salon in Stockholm and enjoys patronage from notable figures such as famous singers, fashion designers, princesses, artists, journalists, writers, politicians, and athletes. Unfortunately, Ursula Peterson fell in love with Erik Frederick, the Duke of Varmland who has a son and is married to Augusta.
Burdened by personal problems, Ursula Peterson and her best friend, Mona Lind decided to leave autumn Stockholm, which was already depressing with a lack of enough light and sun, and fully enjoy the "velvet season" in Cyprus in the city of Paphos.
Paphos was the homeland of Aphrodite and Cyprus itself- the Island of love. Aphrodite is the Greek goddess of love and fertility. Born from sea foam in the village of Kouklia, lonely people find their soul mate once they swim three times around the rock Aphrodite's foot first stepped on. The ruins of the once pompous temple of Aphrodite are also right there in Paphos. Indeed, the two looked forward to a great time in Paphos.
While at Paphos, a gruesome hurricane erupted which created serious pandemonium in the town of Paphos. Ursula and Mona thought the uproar would end after one night but that night was the beginning of the events that would soon unfold in Paphos. Mysteriously, Ursula had an encounter with the great Aphrodite and she needs to get the golden cup for the goddess. Amidst this, Robert Hamilton, a researcher at the Oxford Institute for the Study of Anomalous Phenomena who was also in Paphos began to grow feelings for Ursula Peterson. The story took another dimension when Prince Erik from nowhere arrived in Paphos for a woman she had never met in his life.
Will Ursula and her beloved friend Mona make it out of Paphos alive? What becomes of Ursula's strange love for the Duke of Varmland, and will Theodora, Artemis, and Athena Pallas' request be accepted by the great Aphrodite? Will Ursula ever again find love?
