First published 2022
Psyche knows she has made an enemy of Aphrodite in the gleaming city of Olympus. She expects punishment, but not a death sentence carried out by Aphrodite's own son. Eros arrives to kill his target, blade ready. He has spilled blood before without hesitation. But when he looks at Psyche, something stops him cold. He cannot complete the assignment. Instead, he makes a split second decision that changes everything. He marries her on the spot. Psyche finds herself bound to the man who was supposed to murder her. She swears to make his life miserable until they can escape this arrangement. But as they navigate the dangerous politics of Olympus together, the lines between enemy and ally begin to shift. Psyche discovers that Eros may be the one person who truly sees her. The very heart she thought he would stop may end up in his hands anyway.
