When Cupid Falls First: A Magically Lighthearted Paranormal Romance

by April L. Moon

About this book

My angel ex fell first and now we’re both falling apart. Bring snacks.

I had it all figured out. A quiet life, my bookshop, and three cats who may or may not have magical tendencies. Love? That was a closed chapter. Until Caleb waltzed back in after seven years, turning my world upside down with a wink and a smile.

Caleb isn’t just any ex, he’s a cupid. But now he’s a fallen angel on a mission, to get back the wings he lost for breaking celestial rules the first time around. With me.

I can’t have him, and yet he’s here… posing as my date for my great-grandmother’s 100th birthday party, stirring up everything I swore I’d left behind. But when things go from fake to real between us in an unexpected moment of passion, everything changes.

A second chance with Caleb risks more than just our hearts—it puts our very souls on the line. Heaven already took his wings, now it might take him from me forever.

This book had me laughing from start to finish! The characters are hilarious, and the romantic twists are full of charm and wit. I loved the unique spin on the classic Cupid tale — it was funny, heartwarming, and completely addictive. I couldn’t put it down. If you’re looking for a book that will make you smile and feel all the feels, this one’s definitely a winner! ) One person found this helpful

That's what you get for doing your own thinking!

Lots of internal dialog, misunderstandings , and roller-coaster of emotions leading through multiple twists and turns. Funny, lots of literary references and the angst that comes from thinking you're doing the right thing then dispelling your false beliefs. )

Love, cats, books

This book had a great storyline and characters. Caleb was an angel, a cupid at that, who falls in love with a human and loses his wings. Seven years later he encounters her again, still in love with her, but needing her help to finish his job of getting couples together. The inner monologs of the characters were long and drawn out, I found myself skimming for dialog. Details were changed from chapter to chapter. Chapter 5, a 2 bedroom apartment. Chapter 9, a one bedroom apartment. Cute story,...

Absolutely fantastic story..

Angels...a Cupid angel to boot, put a very different light on this story. The book was mysterious, tender, funny, and was one of the best original stories I have ever read. I never knew where it was going next. A very good read to curl up with on a winters day. ) One person found this helpful
