About this ebook

Stupid Cupid strikes an arrow through reader’s hearts with this opposites attract standalone Valentine’s Day novella sure to take your breath away.

 

Jaded-by-love Amara Hart owns a retro-style gaming arcade in the local shopping mall that is bustling full of people who’d rather play Pac-Man than have a candlelit dinner with the charming Casanova store owner next door. Despite her cynicism toward anything roses, Amara finds herself agreeing to help Valentino Rossi when his store is robbed a few days shy of Valentine’s Day—his biggest annual moneymaker.

 

Valentino believes in endless love and has made it his mission in life to help others express that love through romance and custom-made jewelry. Silly little love songs are what make him get out of bed in the morning, and meeting the anti-Valentine Amara has thrown him for a loop. Determined to prove love me tender is more than a retro ballad, Valentino sets out to give Amara a Valentine’s Day she’ll never forget.

 

As Amara feels her rough edges begin to soften, she begins to wonder what would happen if she asked the man next door to…be mine, Valentino.

Get yourself in the mood for V Day with this sweet, smexy little gem of romance! It has opposites attract, forced togetherness and, of course, pretty much instant chemistry. Well-paced but still fast-moving. There are both sides of the story given in dual POV. I would have loved this as a full-fledged book as I feel we lost so much of the story and background subplot. The epilogue did feel a wee bit forced so it's really a 3.75 stars if I'm honest but I round up LOL. A great little nugget to fill a lunch hour for me! (I received an advanced copy via Netgalley and voluntarily leave this review)

Amara Hart is dreading Valentine's Day. After being cheated on by her ex she has no love for the holiday. Amara would rather just enjoy running Rad Retro Arcade which she opened three years ago. Unfortunately the owner of the store next door, Kisses and Karats Jewelry, just loves the holiday. From what she's heard, Valentino Rossi is a real Cassanova! When Val's business gets robbed, Mara and Val end up spending the night guarding their businesses together. Of course the more time these two spend together, the more the sparks start to ignite. Just when it looks like Mara has given up on love, Val ends up helping her see it in a different light. This was a sweet, fun novella where the heroine finds love when she isn't even looking for it. I really liked this cute story with fun, likeable characters.

Fun and sweet novella. Amara is passionate about gaming and owns an arcade at the mall which I love. Her neighbor is Val, a jewelry store owner, that doesn’t appreciate when the kids get loud. Both of them have struggled in the love department but a break-in forces them together to police the mall. Will this unlikely duo realize that they have more in common than they thought possible? What a wonderful setting and great characters that provided me a sweet escape. I voluntarily read an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.
