Charming Cupid is everything that I love in a book. The characters had me laughing, crying and cheering for this couple to get their happy ever after. ~ Paige, Guilty Pleasures

Blurb:
Stand-alone Steamy Weekends romance, complete with HEA–and plenty of heat and heart along the way!

Cooper Briggs

The minute I saw her in that heart-stopping red dress, I knew I’d do whatever it took to make her mine – even if it meant anonymously bidding on myself in the bachelor auction and then pulling strings to make sure that “she” won me.

Unfortunately, she didn’t seem to want anything to do with me after the auction, winning bid or not. Still, I’m looking at that as a minor setback. I didn’t settle for defeat when I was in the NFL, and I don’t plan on starting now. Not when the stakes are this high.

Dr. Vanessa Cupid

I’ve built a life and career by helping other people drop the walls they’ve built around their hearts and create true intimacy. The one thing I’ve never tried, though, is taking my own advice. I can’t risk letting anyone get too close.

That’s never been a problem until now. But the minute Cooper Briggs kissed the back of my hand, I knew I was in trouble. He’s the first person I’ve ever met that might be able to threaten my carefully-guarded heart.

For Coop and Vanessa, will one Steamy Weekend be enough to change everything?

I’m a huge fan of this writing duo and the world’s they create. Needless say I was totally lost in Charming Cupid and once I began Coop and Vanessa’s book I had a hard time setting it down. This is the first of a new series but if you’ve read Melanie Shaun before it’s not the first time we meet Cooper or Vanessa.

We’re given laugh out loud moments immediately. I began falling for Cooper in the first few pages where he’s dealing with a small personal problem. I fell more in love with Coop at the end of the bachelor auction and like Vanessa by the end of the book I was totally in love with him. He was the total package- charming, sweet, friendly and has one not bod! He is determined to catch Vanessa’s attention despite her given him the cold shoulder.

Vanessa is a highly educated women who isn’t falling for Coops charm. She lasts longer than most but she finally lets her guard down. The constant calling, flowers and shown g up at her seminar might have helped. They have an immediate connection and they are able to forge a friendship in addition to a romantic relationship.

Their courtship was brief but it suited this couple. They were so guarded with other people that their guard down and found what they were looking for.
I think this also helped them when dealing with their families as well. They were able to see a different perspective.

I can’t wait to see what they have in store for his friends and the rest of the family.
