Marche James is a drunk. A drunk that killed his dear wife in a horrific car accident. The doctors released him from the hospital when they decided he had recovered but they overlooked his mental injuries. Three years later, Marche remains a cruel and lonely man. Estranged from his daughter and living alone with his guilt, he desperately needed a reason on continue living. Then one evening, while on his way to AA meeting, he met Aphrodite, a graffiti-defaced marble statue. Marche was so incensed at Aphro's degradation that he purchased a bucket and brush and began restoring Aphro to her former beauty. It was while performing this act of charity - or perhaps penance - that Marche fell in love.

Fortunately, toward the end of this tale, Marche's luck improves when he meets a psychic who sells Marche a magic talisman that has the power to transform Aphro into a living, breathing woman.

Sorry, you'll have to read the book to find out.
