BEAUTY AND THE BEAST meets CUPID AND PSYCHE . . .

A sacrifice. A secret. A love that defies fate.

Psyche, a young woman of extraordinary beauty, fights for her life after her father, the king of Kythira, returns from the Oracle at Delphi and sacrifices her to a fearsome dragon to save his kingdom. But this dragon hides more than sharp teeth and fire; he harbors a secret that binds him to her in ways she cannot yet understand.

Determined to reclaim her freedom and uncover the truth, Psyche embarks on a perilous journey that tests her courage and resilience but also surprises her at every turn as she finds the dragon to be the kind, witty, and gracious master of an opulent castle full of magic and mystery.

As she gradually uncovers more about the master of the castle, who claims to be her protector and not her captor, the impossible happens. Is it possible to love a beast?
