Synopsis

Rachel Greer is fed up with love. For years she was sure her Prince Charming was right around the corner. Ha. Was she ever wrong (and she's got the exes to prove it). So she's decided to devote her time to meaningful pursuits, filling her life with work and volunteerism. Enter the goddess Venus, forced by her ornery father Zeus into fairy godmother servitude. Venus is only a few love-life fixes away from returning to Mount Olympus and she's not about to let some reluctant mortal stand in her way. Sexy, sassy Venus is a force to be reckoned with - this goddess always gets her man, even if she's trying to get him for someone else. Armed with her extraordinary goddess powers (well...the few she has left after Zeus got through with her), a killer wardrobe, and the goddess bible (Cosmopolitan), Venus sets out to turn Rachel's orderly life upside down in the name of True Love.
