Hello, My Name Is Cupid (Book I) by NadjaPr

I was sent to earth to get to know the behaviour of humans - at least that's my official mission. I prefer going back to my old job. Which means, making people fall in love. But there is a major problem, as soon as I'd use my bow and arrow god would notice it. So I need to try it differently: I need to set up romantic events and do some talking - lots of talking. In case you didn't get it yet, I'm Cupid. No, I'm not the way humans imagine me. And earth is not the way I imagined it. This mission changed everything. Book 1 in the Enochian series Highest rank: #49 in paranormal

Her eyes by primadonnabrat

When a lonely girl crosses paths with the guy that is willing to do anything for her and the universe feels irrevocably changed. ••• The first day of my second year at Cambridge university, and I still haven't made a single friend during my time here. I don't know what that says about me as a person. ••• Her eyes were the first thing I noticed. I thought they looked like eyes that deserved to be painted, every detail captured. They warranted being made immortal and deserved to be showcased at the most famous of museums. All Rights Reserved ®

Callista isn't exactly the best in the business. When it comes to being a cupid, she struggles, and her snarky little lovebird pixie assistant isn't any help. She's already in hot water with her boss and has to make her monthly quota by the cupids' biggest day of the year, Valentine's Day. She's on a great streak until her last target looks right at her just as she's about to shoot. Startled and unsure of what to do, Callista aborts the mission and risk a reprimand. Little does she know, Kiki Son now has a mission of his own. He wants to seek out and find that crazy strawberry blonde that no one else seemed to notice. ~*~*~*~*~ Based on the 2023 ONC prompt. #33 They had their arrow aimed at their target's back, a perfect shot despite the crowded ballroom. Taking a deep, steadying breath, they pulled the bowstring taut and prepared to let the arrow fly. But then their target turned and looked directly at them, finding them in the eaves as if they'd known they were there all along. The target winked.
