Opis

Psyche Middleton vows her dad will never see the risque photos she took during a summer modeling stint abroad, but one of them ends up on a billboard in her Montana hometown, where everyone-especially her dad-can see it. That becomes the least of her worries when she meets Erik, a mysterious guy who rescues her from a mob and who she's never actually seen because he can make himself invisible. Erik takes her to his palace in an idyllic kingdom, and she is swept into the beauty and culture of his world, but his affection has one condition: she may not see him. Enchanted, intrigued, and not wholeheartedly believing he's real, Psyche can't bring herself to love him blindly. When she betrays his trust for a glimpse of his face, Psyche ends up at the mercy of Erik's controlling mother, who demands that Psyche prove herself in order to be reunited with him. Psyche knows love is never easy, but this is ridiculous. She agrees to complete three impossible tasks to prove her devotion to Erik-or die trying. This modern retelling of the myth of Cupid and Psyche is a fantastical journey filled with laughter, danger, and the indomitable power of love. *** "This book will take your breath away, it will leave your heart pounding and your skin tingling. Although it's a standalone, you will enjoy it as much as you could have enjoyed reading a whole series, maybe even more." Soma, Insomnia of Books "I can't believe this is Michelle A. Hansen's debut novel. The writing quality is much better than most established authors, in my opinion. Her world-building is excellent." Carrie, The Mad Reviewer "A captivating retelling that will surely make an old myth a new favorite" Kelly Hashway, author of Touch of Death"
