Beaus and Arrows

by Rashida T. Williams

2019 · Red Adept Publishing, LLC

Emory hates his job—almost as much as he hates being called “Cupid.” Tasked with spreading love throughout the Earth realm, Emory wields his arrows with reckless abandon and matches couples based solely on their entertainment value. On the same day his impulsive behavior triggers an audit, he accidentally breaks the heart of his most dependable client, Blair. Blair should be furious with her incompetent matchmaker after she completely loses her ability to feel love and desire. Instead, she agrees to help him salvage his career. But she has one condition: he must find her the perfect man. Sending Emory on a frantic search for her soulmate seemed like an amusing diversion at first. But as the barrier surrounding Blair’s broken heart grows stronger, she can’t connect with suitor after suitor… leaving Emory to console her after each failed match. Emory and Blair’s unexpected bond turns into friendship, and Emory soon finds himself falling in love with the one woman who can’t love him back. In a race against time, Emory must mend Blair’s broken heart before her condition becomes irreversible… and before the audit committee banishes him for this grave error.
