Aphrodite is determined not to let the goddess of strife and discord, Eris, interfere with Ares's (Eris's younger brother and Aphrodite's crush) thirteenth birthday party. But that's easier said than done, especially when Eris's latest scheme could potentially drive Aphrodite and her best friend, Athena, apart for good. The fifteenth fun-filled romp of the likable middle-school goddesses will satisfy series fans.
