DESCRIPTION:
A Subtle Romance A charming, sweet love story nestled in the arms of ancient greece and the every day life of a sculptor and the man he comes to care for. Enjoyed every minute.. Alike as Two Bees Elin Gregory Lena Grey Set in Ancient Greece, 'Alike as Two Bees' by Elin Gregory tells the tale of Philon, an apprentice sculptor, and a soldier named Hilarion; how they meet, develop a mutual attraction, and fall in love. The detailed descriptions of the operation of a stone masonry gave me a greater appreciation for the magnificence of Greek architecture. I've seen many pictures of these amazing buildings and statues, but never stopped to think about someone having to carve every detail by hand.The characters in this story are brilliantly portrayed &. Catherine Cavendish said Stays With You. I can say this because I read this a few weeks ago and it is with me still. This is a beautifully written story set in classical Greece, and Elin Gregory manages to create such depth in her characters and story and such a strong atmosphere, I was sad to reach the last page.I have the strongest feeling there is much more to come from this writer and I look forward to reading it. 'Alike As Two Bees' is such a lovely story.
Society, friends and family threaten their growing relationship, but perhaps a scarred soldier and a lover of beauty are more alike than they appear.. Sadly, the rider falls well short of the ideal of beauty, but scarred and tattered Hilarion, with his brilliant, imperfect smile, draws Philon in a way that mere perfection cannot.After years of living among the free and easy tribes of the north, Hillarion has no patience with Athenian formality. He knows what he wants—and what he wants is Philon. Horses, love, and the tang of thyme and honeyIn Classical Greece, apprentice sculptor Philon has chosen the ideal horse to model for his masterpiece
