The daughter of two archaeologists filled with a love for the land, Jamie Lakewood instead hears the cry of the deep. That is until a shark attack costs her the man she loves and almost costs her her life. Now she is unable to go near the sea or to even think of diving again before the panic attacks take over. So what in the world is she doing traveling across the ocean to an island and why is she considering a potential diving job, even if as a consultant only?

Powerful businessman Vasilios Okeanos wants Jamie to find Poseidon's trident and crown but who is he really and why does he want these items? Trapped in a mortal realm away from his ocean home, Poseidon must find true love to retrieve that which was taken from him. Perhaps his chance has arrived in the form of spunky Jamie Lakewood. With the help of an assortment of gods and goddesses the search begins and adventure ensues.

Poseidon's Heart by Diane Taylor is a contemporary paranormal romance with a dash of adventure, a splash of humor and of course lots of romance. It takes a strong heroine to stand up to the Gods of Mount Olympus and Jamie Lakewood is more than up to the task. After all, she already survived being in the jaws of a great white so how hard could this be? Filled with moments of laughter, snappy dialogue, a host of amusing secondary characters and lots of heat, Poseidon's Heart is a pleasure to read.
