You, Me & Psyche- Book Two

Book Two: Jess and Yanni

About

Twenty-five years ago, Jess fled Greece, choosing a self-imposed exile to protect her shattered heart. Now, she is facing a whole new epic crisis: midlife, menopause, and a life in freefall. Her long-term job at the practice has vanished, and a frantic, impulsive decision to sell her house has stripped away her final safety net. Once again, Jess is on her arse, with no clue and no direction. 

 

As she packs away the remnants of her old life, the past refuses to stay buried. Hidden deep in the attic lies the one thing she swore she would never touch again: her own personal Pandora's box. Sealed tight a quarter of a century ago. Memories she could never quite let go of. When nostalgia finally breaks her resolve and Jess lifts the lid to her past.

 

Just as Jess tries to find her footing in her new reality, a cosmic force stirs and lands Jess right back where it all started. The sun-drenched island of Zakynthos has changed over the decades, but it hasn't lost its majestic power to sweep her off her feet. Hidden away in a quiet villa, Jess finally begins to contemplate her future.

 

But the past and the present collide when she comes face-to-face with Yanni—the Eros of her youth. The shadows of the nineties have vanished, but the blinding light of the truth leaves them both reeling. As old lies and long-hidden secrets are unearthed, their rekindled connection is threatened by the very truth that was supposed to set them free.

 

Like the mortal Psyche facing the impossible tasks of the gods, Jess must decide if she risks everything for the love she once lost. Will the gods finally be in her favour—and let her have the man who has always held her heart?
