Desire is an adult mythology fantasy by author Cindy Jacks. I wanted to like this book so much. It has so many elements that are normally a smash hit for me. I love mythology books, especially when they feature a romance, and I love to see less popular gods as the main characters. That is exactly what Desire promised. It is told from the point of view of Bacchus, the deity of intoxication and ecstasy. Sounds awesome right? In theory yes, and I might have a different opinion of this book if it were longer, but it clocks in at just over 150 pages, and that was not enough time for me to form a connection with the characters. I finished the book because it was so short but I didn't really care about anything that happened to our main characters.

If you are a fan of fast paced novella length stories, then this might be a fun option to try. I enjoyed seeing this book through Bacchus' point of view, and I do love mythology based books, but it fell a little flat for me. Bacchus made a bigger impression on me than the female main character- Ariana but only slightly. It was an interesting read, but wasn't my favorite.
