Chris Peck, worshipped by millions as Zeus on Olympus, desperately wants to prove to the producers of a soon-to-be-cast romantic comedy that he doesn’t need fight scenes or special effects to make the jump to the big screen. Acting as the slave-for-a-day in the hit show’s fan appreciation contest would cement his everyman credibility, but the winner wants nothing to do with him.
Sydney Richardson should have locked the door when a Greek god appeared on her front step at sunrise on Valentine’s Day. After months of work, she needs every second to work on the fundraiser she’s running for burn victims like herself and she can’t afford to waste time with a TV hunk, no matter how good he looks in a toga.
Chris is captivated by Sydney and he promises to put her fundraising efforts over the top if she spends the day with him. However, just when he convinces Sydney they could have a real chance together, the movie’s producers offer him an audition that would mean breaking his promises and leaving Sydney in the lurch.
The king of the gods has until sunset to prove to his new off-screen love interest that Hollywood magic and true-life romance can co-exist.
