A speculative love story which recasts the lesser-known Moon goddess, Selene, as a modern-day, solitary scientist with preternatural abilities who, upon falling for the man unwittingly threatening the safety of her secret island community, faces an impossible choice: lose her utopian home, or lose her newfound soulmate.
This poignant, music-infused novel explores belonging, identity, and self-acceptance, and the lengths we go to protect who and what we love—for better or worse.
