He's mythologically hot, a little bit wicked, almost 100% immortal. And he'll hit you right in the heart . . . --- Lila Black doesn't believe in matchmaking, let alone soul mates. So why is she constantly being hassled by the Cupids Matchmaking Service? But this gilded, cherub-bedecked dating agency isn't exactly what it seems . . . and it's about to turn Lila's entire world upside down. It turns out that Cupids Matchmaking is the real deal. As in, it's run by actual cupids―who don't look at all like they do in the paintings―and they have a serious problem with Lila's "match." Because this guy shouldn't be in the system. He shouldn't have a match. And while he's irresistibly hot, he's also incredibly dangerous. Because Lila's true love match is Cupid. The original bad boy of love. And he wants her. Now Lila's once-normal teenaged world has exploded into a mythological nightmare overrun by crime-lord sirens, wrathful cupid hit men, magic arrows that cause no end of trouble, and a mischievous, not-so-angelic love god she can't seem to stop herself from falling for . . .Complete

ARROW OF THE GODS
For over 500 years, Cupid has been the unseen force behind countless love stories, guiding hearts toward their destined matches. But for all the passion he has kindled, he has never felt love himself. To him, his gift is a curse-a cruel irony that allows him to spread love but never receive it. That is, until he meets her. A college student with an unshakable fascination for him, she sees past the legend and falls for the lonely soul beneath. Her devotion is unwavering, her love deep and undeniable. But Cupid, jaded by centuries of solitude, cannot believe that love-true, boundless love-could ever be meant for him. Doubt keeps him at a distance, his heart shackled by fear. Yet, slowly, her persistence chips away at the walls he has built. And when he finally recognizes the truth-that she loves him not for what he does, but for who he is-there is no force in the universe strong enough to keep them apart. A tale of fate, vulnerability, and the power of love, Arrow of the Gods is a story of a god who spent centuries creating love-only to find it in the most unexpected place.Complete
