A fantasy romance, by dazzling new talent Sarah Underwood, inspired by Greek mythology and the tale of Eros and Psyche.
On the island of Zakynthos, nothing is more powerful than Desire-love itself, bottled and sold to the highest bidder by Leandros, a power-hungry descendent of the god Eros.
Eirene and her beloved twin sister, Phoebe, have always managed to escape Desire’s thrall. Until Leandros’ wife dies mysteriously and he sets his sights on Phoebe. Determined to keep her sister safe, Eirene strikes a bargain: if Eirene can complete the tasks Leandros sets her, he will leave her sister alone.
But in Leandros’ palatial home, something hungry stalks the night. And as Eirene grows ever closer to Lamia, the strange, neglected girl kept locked away, they realise that the freedom they yearn for will come at a terrible cost…
