Psyche and Eros: A Glorious Reimagining of Greek Mythology

Psyche, princess of Mycenae, was born under a prophecy that she will conquer a great monster. She rejects her royal duties to master blade and bow in preparation for her destiny. When tales of her beauty and rebellious nature reach the goddess Aphrodite, Aphrodite commands Eros, the god of desire, to curse Psyche with love. However, Eros accidentally pricks himself with the arrow meant for her, dooming him to yearn for a woman he cannot have—their connection will be severed the moment they meet. Thrown together by fate, headstrong Psyche and world-weary Eros face challenges neither could have imagined. As the Trojan War begins and divine powers work to keep them apart, they must determine whether their connection is true love or merely myth. The novel explores themes of trust, sacrifice, and heroism through the story of two characters whose love defies the will of Olympus.
