What happens when a goddess falls in love with a human?
It was night when the sun fell to the earth, falling for love. The other gods don’t take kindly to a deserter of the heavens. Lir, God of the Moon and Nightmares, curses her, binding Echo’s tongue, forbidding her to reveal her true name to the mortal she’s loved for millennia.
Three months. That’s all the time Echo has to get Evander to fall in love as a stranger in her human form or Lir’s curse will drag her back to the sky–shackled to the stars and forever alone.
Becoming human is harder than it looked from the clouds. The simplest tasks—baking bread or cleaning a tapestry—are nearly impossible with her volatile immortal flames. Her divine light is her greatest weakness in secrecy, for if anyone speaks her name, the curse will claim her.
To make matters worse, Evander is exactly as Echo remembered–kind, loyal, handsome, and completely devoted to his goddess. So devoted he won’t even look at another woman in the Temple of Dawn.
How can Echo win a heart that’s already hers, when Evander’s gaze is still fixed on her old flames in the cosmos?
As the world tilts toward eternal night and Lir’s nightmares grow under the moonlight, nothing can stop the gravity pulling between their souls. Oaths will be broken, hearts will be shattered, and souls will be tested, because when the sun falls for a chance at love, the fallout for these star-crossed lovers is deadly.
