Blurb:
Eloise knows she shouldn’t have a crush on her boss…especially because he’s Cupid.

When Eloise adds herself to the Jinx matchmaking database she discovers a bit of a shock – she’s matched with Cupid, and he’s her boss.

Cupid is more focused on doing his job than on dating, but he soon finds himself distracted by the enchanting employee in his matchmaking department. And with the Jinx Valentine’s Day party coming up, he should be focusing on work, not his own love life.

But sometimes it’s impossible to avoid fate.

Matchmaking With Cupid is a Roman mythology-inspired paranormal m/f rom-com and part of the Jinx Paranormal Dating Agency series. It features a light-hearted workplace romance with a bi Roman god of love.

My Review

I received a free copy from the author and voluntarily reviewed it.

I was in the mood for a light and fun read so I decided to read this one. I am enjoying this series so far and this was another fun book in the series. This story follows Eloise who works for Jinx and adds herself to the matchmaking database when she gets matched with her boss Cupid. Curious to see whether the app is correct about them being compatible they grow closer.

This was a fun read. I liked both Eloise and Cupid and seeing how they handled the situation with them getting matched. I also liked how they end up working together to find a match for Hades which sets the stage for the next book. And it was fun to read about someone working for Jinx and seeing a bit about how the app and the matchmaking worked. I also liked some of the mentions of mythology regarding Cupid.

I liked these two together, but would’ve liked a bit more about them getting to know each other. This one felt a bit more focused on the physical scenes. There are mentions of them talking and connecting, but I would’ve liked to read a bit more of those. I liked them together, but something was missing for me to fully feel their romance.

To summarize: This was another fun read in this series. I was in the mood for an easy and fun read and that’s exactly what I got here. I liked seeing them get matched through Jinx and growing closer after that. I would’ve liked a few more scenes of them getting to know each other as this one felt a bit more focused on some the physical connection. I liked them together, but would’ve liked a bit more. It sets the stage for the next book and has some mentions of other couples in the series as well.
