To Hell With Love Sherri Browning Erwin 9781420101058 Books

I loved a lot of things about this book. Kate is funny, smart, modern, and you feel like she could be your best friend or your sister. But it is a lot of build up for an ending that leaves you feel unsatisfied. One of the reasons, I think, to read a Romance Novel as opposed to something else, is for the happy ending. This has one...to a point. Just be warned.

To Hell With Love Sherri Browning Erwin 9781420101058 Books Reviews

At last! This one made me laugh, made me cry, and even made me think about much bigger issues, like good and evil, and death and afterlife. Didn't expect that in a romance! And make no mistake, this is a lovely romance. Kate is intelligent and sympathetic, and so funny; I loved her snide comments. And Owen - sigh - is to die for. Or at least consider dying for. Imagine an eternity with this guy! The ending, while bittersweet, was the only one that made sense and, best of all, left the door open for more time with Kate, who is such a fantastic heroine. I'm so glad I found this one and can't wait to see what Erwin does next.
To Hell with Love had a very interesting premise, Hades the god of the underworld is out to find a loving companion to end the dark loneliness of his immortal existence. Interior designer Kate draws Hades notice when she responds to the question of who would be the perfect man to date and replies that it would be the devil but it would take more than a couple of dates before she'd be willing to give up her soul. But of course Hades who makes his appearance a year later as rich and handsome Owen doesn't do souls, and anyway what he really wants is Kate's heart for all eternity.

Though the premise was great the execution is not typical of your standard romance novel, more time was spent developing Kate and her family than the relationship between Kate and Owen, making the romance between the two not developed enough in the first two thirds of the book to give it a real intensity. In fact Kate spends way too much time dreaming of being with Owen and waiting for his calls and not enough time in his company. When they actually do spend time together, Owen is so omnipotent that their conversations have a very odd feel. Also since Owen does grand gestures but doesn't do a great deal of acting on the emotion that Kate sees in his eyes -- while he also keeps fending off Kate's blatant seduction -- it felt at times that all the love between them was in Kate's head.

As strange as it seems with everything I've said so far, the book did redeem itself in the end. So while I can understand why some reviewers couldn't get past all this, somehow in the last third of the book once Kate and Owen got to the crisis point in their relationship, where he reveals his true identity and wants her to make the choice of loving him at the cost of giving up her life and her family, I really started to finally connect to these two. And since this crisis point also coincided with a family crisis for Kate, the final development of her character and the clarity that brings really added depth to the story. Add to that Owen finally learning the selflessness of love and sacrificing when there was no compromise along with the bittersweetness of his sacrifice and I ended up liking the book. But I have to admit that I did cheat and read the other reviews, so I was prepared when the author didn't succumb and give us the easy typical romance novel happily ever after.

If you don't mind unconventional HEAs and like the mythological tie-in of To Hell with Love, you might want to consider checking out P.C. Cast's books. She has several goddess related works that have a similar bittersweetness if you are looking for something a little out of the mainstream romance norm.

P.C. Cast's Goddess Summoning Series
Goddess of the Sea (Goddess Summoning, Book 1) (Berkley Sensation)
Goddess of Spring (Goddess Summoning, Book 2)
Goddess of Light (Goddess Summoning, Book 3)
Goddess of the Rose (Goddess Summoning, Book 4)

I haven't read this one but am including it for completeness.
Goddess of Love (Goddess Summoning, Book 5)
I seriously do not even know what to say about this piece of work. It's a rare and special day when you run across a romance novel where the male protagonist is death/devil/Hades. They are personal favorites of mine. So you can imagine I snatched this one up as soon as I saw it. I am glad I only dished out $2 for it.

The plot is as thin as wet tissue and more boring than watching mud dry. Every page was obvious and expected, the obstruction between the protagonists was blaring, and it was just very...bland. I will give the author credit for knowing how to write and tell the story she wants to tell. However, I must deduct points for the lack of creativity. I wanted so much to be wowed or at least enjoy the novel, but instead I felt like this would be a the love story about death and his lady as written by a high school freshmen, still dewy eyed
This book had a lot of promise, but I have to say, I could barely get through it. The ending was a bummer, certainly, but the rest of the book never really reached me.
Great characters and realistic situations combined with a bit of the unreal make this a fun read. Romance but not merely that, a great story!
This was an interesting and fun read. Having read some of Sherri's other books, I was interested in reading more of her work. She's a talented writer with very interesting characters!
this by far is not worth buying. i wouldnt consider this book a love story since the lovers arent together enough to fall in love. it all has to do with her inner rantings and turmoil. although i have to admit there are great little scenes that are funny and cute but just not enough.
