One day he is drawn into an quaint looking jewellery shop in LA to buy wedding rings, and is completely mesmerized by the owner Apollo. I'll leave this one here.
2.5 stars This was a sweet little story, and I have to say the timing is freaky cuz I had a conversation last night with a hippie friend of mine about listening to the Universe and the Universe providing if you're open to it... so yeah, wierd. Anyway, short and sweet with a good ending. The little bump down in rating is becuase Apollo was just really flat to me and I didn't feel any emotion or passion from him. That made it so I wasn't as involved in the story, but I still enjoyed the journey.

This is a sweet treat of a story--like a rich chocolate truffle with a liqueur center. I thought I knew what would happen, but I was wrong in the best way possible. No spoilers here, you'll have to read it for yourself, which i recommend. :)
