Three unbreakable rules
Two fated lovers
And one enchanted rose


A sizzling shifter twist on the tale of Beauty & the Beast


Some shadows hide on the inside
Gifted with the power of concealment, Psyche has made a habit of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. But when she stumbles upon the beast's next sacrifice, Psyche sees a way to end this savage ritual. Determined to kill him, she trades places with the virgin maiden and enters his lair with dagger in hand. Only, the beast isn't a beast at all, and he hides in the shadows even better than she does.

He's the god of erotic love, but she doesn't know that
A millennium ago, Eros, son of the goddess of Love, Aphrodite, sought amusement in a wager with his mother. A thousand years later, it's the game playing him. He's desperate for Psyche to be the one to end his bet, but an accident with one of his arrows consumes him with lust for her. All will be lost if he can't overcome his nature and control his passions--and hers--before Psyche's curiosity seals her fate.

And learning the truth...will kill her
Cursed by his beauty, no one has ever loved Eros for himself. To win the wager and free his soul, he'll have to earn Psyche's trust--and her heart--without her ever glimpsing his true form. Should he fail, it will be her soul condemned...and his one chance at love, forever lost.
