But freedom will not come without sacrifice.To save an innocent woman and the child that woman loves-a life Psyche once lived in another body-she must make an impossible choice: Remain mortal... and let history repeat itself or Marry the god who once nearly destroyed her... and surrender her human future forever.MNEM is a dark, modern retelling of the myth of Eros and Psyche-an adult mythological romance about consent, power, trauma, memory, and choosing love with open eyes.
