This book was a light, quick, and enjoyable read that was entertaining at the time, but did not leave a lasting impression on me as a reader.Cupid's Match is a modern representation of Greek mythology with Cupid embodied as a matchmaking service that matches people together that were meant to fall in love. Cupid's match follows Lila Black in LA who has been receiving mail from a dating agency called Cupid's Match Services, she already has a boyfriend called James. She has been matched with Cupid himself - an actual paranormal being, the God of Love.She then finds out Cupid is starting the same high school as her so there's no avoiding him.I like Lila as a character she seems to have a good set of morals. My heart went out to her what she's been through loosing her mother & her having to care for her father.Cupid was sexy, mysterious and mischievous. I loved the way he protected and cared about Lila. The way he was physically described meant I could picture him as a totally handsome guy.Good descriptions of the scenery and surroundings. Like the way the author mixed Lila's feelings of anger and desire. The romance wasn't insta-love despite being matched together the tension built up slowly.High school romances always seem to get me out of a reading slump, but with the mythology twist this was unlike anything I've read before and I thoroughly enjoyed it, I finished it in a day nice, easy read. Overall, i would characterize this book as fantasy and would recommend it for any teenager or lover of YA or mythology if you are looking for something light. This is not a book full of insights or deep moments.…
