Publisher's Synopsis
Adonis is probably the most beautiful man in the world, but unlike many beautiful men, who are well aware of their own exquisite appearance, Adonis is completely unaware of the way in which his looks seem to hypnotize the opposite sex. He would rather spend his time hunting that with a girl. Venus is the goddess of love, and when she sees Adonis for the first time, she falls in love with him and comes down to earth to meet him. When they meet, Adonis is about to set out on a hunt. She wants him to get down from his horse and talk to her for a little while, but he is not interested in doing so. Just because she's a goddess doesn't mean that Adonis wants to trouble himself to get to know her. She forces him to get off the horse, and proceeds to lie down next to him, talking about love, and staring at him as if entranced. All Venus wants is for Adonis to kiss her. All Adonis wants is for Venus to leave him alone so that he can go hunting. He makes a break for it and goes to get his horse so that he can gallop away.
