Nick Doherty has a secret ability—so secret, in fact, he doesn’t even know it exists. Outwardly, he has it all: a prestigious career, a bevy of eager women, and he is intriguingly well-liked. What no one can imagine is his possession of two overactive amygdalae that radiate any spates of fear or anger he might have into those nearby with an amplified effect—a reverse empath, if you will. Nick’s unusual power makes him an emotional powder keg to those near him. All his aberrant behavior is demystified in a letter bequeathed by his father, who confesses information withheld until his death about their family curse. Newly aware of his undetectable superpower, Nick exploits it to bring down his diabolic rival and systematically advance his career, until a life-altering event flips the script, and he reboots on a quest to oxygenate the lives of others on a grand scale. A humorous primer on dealing with misfortunes through dogged determination, PERSONALITY + Puissance is a thought-provoking read about relationships and self-evolution.
