Publisher's summary

Cupid, the God of Love, is no longer doing his job of creating romance. A disastrous mistake he’d made a quarter of a century ago forced him to put down his bow and arrow for good.

Valentina Hart has never had any luck with men, and her last boyfriend was no prize by far. An unexpected meeting with a hot guy suddenly turns her sex life from non-existent to… DAMN.

But, will Cupid’s secret drive Val away forever? Or will she stick around to show him what true and unconditional love really is?

4.5 Cupid’s Heart Stars


Oh my gosh the warm fuzzies, what a fabulous read. I loved the interaction between all the characters. I found myself chuckling especially with Cupid, Somnus and Hercules. Reminded me of brothers.

Valentina was unexpected for me, I wasn't really sure how to feel about her, but she proves herself to be just what Cupid needs. Cupid, oh Cupid you can’t help but feel for the guy, he was really having a hard time with his choices. I am glad he let Val in.

Somnus is a sneaky God, I think I could totally be best buds with him. He seems so serious I think we need to find him his other half.

What did I like best about the narration… Wen said Pam!!! Yep he did in chapter 2.. Swoon ..I mean hello how freaking awesome was that.. Ok back to the book haha .. I love how both Wen and Kai give each character their own unique voices. They bring each one to life with emotion, you never feel like you don’t know who is in the driver’s seat.

*You don't have to like my review but its 100% my opinion, and I am allowed to have it.*

Gods we love

What did you love best about Cupid's Heart?

The way his friends go about helping Cupid go in the direction he needs.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I DID listen to this book in one sitting!

Any additional comments?

This was a great tale of love and the Gods. I listen to this on audio and was blown away. A quick listen that kept me enthralled the whole time. I adore the story of Cupid however the way the author developed the characters and the struggle made it so much more interesting than the tale I grew up with. The narration was everything, fun, hilarious, sexy, hot, right on par with the emotions the author was portraying. Although this is a standalone book we are lucky enough that it was left open for tales of more Gods to come. Let's just hope Nicole Garcia brings us some more of the Gods we love to love.

Any additional comments?

Cupid the God of Love has fallen head over heels in love with Valentina. But he will not reveal that to her for many reasons One something horrible happened over 25 years ago and he has no plans of ever going through that again.

💘Better Than Expected...


This is my first Nicole Garcia story, and it was a pleasant surprise. While the story is on the shorter side, and the chemistry and romance is instant, it has a decent plot, with interesting characters, and was perfectly narrated. It's a great listen for the times you are limited on time, and what to listened to a complete story, with a HEA, and no cliffhangers.

Besides the narration, the characters really made this story. I liked how Cupid, Hercules, Somnus and some of the other gods interacted with each other. They were tired of watching Cupid suffer and long for something he felt he didn't deserve or couldn't have. They meddled just enough so Cupid would act on his feelings. I'm really looking forward to listening to Somnus's story.

I was provided this audiobook by the author, publisher and/or narrator in exchange for an unbiased review.

Light and uncomplicated

This is a cute uplifting book that leaves you with a smile ☺️
Cupid hung up his arrow 25 year's ago after making a disastrous match.
Determined not to fall in love with a human... Cupid reluctantly starts falling for Valentina a human he watches daily.
This relationship is low on drama but not without it's set backs.
All in all it held my interest.
I really enjoyed the Humorous​ banter between cursing God's Cupid, Somnus, and Hercules​ 😂
This book also had some passionate scenes in it as well.
Kai and Wen did an excellent job as usual.
I was given this book by the author in exchange for my honest unbiased review.
And I say.. it's worth a credit!!

Nice, quick listen!

I always find that I'm never quite sure how to describe Nicole Garcia's books when I finish them. Always a quick fun listen, they are never what I expect. And, I think that's why I keep coming back to them. And, of course with Kai and Wen doing narration, I never know where Nicole ends and they begin. They are just the interesting voices of her many different characters. One thing's for sure, listening to Nicole's books with Kai and Wen narrating is always an unexpected treat.

Yes please!

Nicole once again delivers entertainment for all! The story was sexy, entertaining and heart warming. Even Cupid needs love, Right? Sexy scenes, sexy gods... can't go wrong!

The narrators are soo soo good~ Wen & Kai are amazing in how much emotion they give a story. They read in a way that pulls you in, makes you steam but also doesn't seem fake.

I plan on checking out everything i can get my hands on by Nicole. She is an amazing writer but also because of her amazing narrators.

Highly recommended **

Note: I received this book in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion. It in no way affected my opinion of the book.

Cupid’s Cure

Cupid’s Heart is an enjoyable short story about a god falling in love but not feeling worthy of the love from the human female, Valentina Hart. Luckily Cupid has two friends, Somnus and Hercules, to help him get into trouble... errrr figure out the direction his live and love should take.

I am a mythology fan and this book in addition to as the wonderful cover art drew my attention and purchase. This is my first experience with the writing style of Nicole Garcia and I am impressed. As a side note I enjoy reading other people’s reviews and the one by Pam Audio-Fanatic had me in fits of giggles.

This book is narrated by the ever wonderful Kai Kennicott and Wen Ross in the DUET style where the male narrator takes on all the male characters and the female narrator does the same for the females. I adore this format as the narrators can play and react off each other much like on a movie, play or television. Thank you both for the wonderful talent and heart you bring to this story.

Love is Everything!

Cupid gave up his bow & arrow after he had shot an arrow in a woman so she would love a man. The man had been cruel to her and she ended up killing herself. Cupid set on the edge of the reflector pool and looked down on Val. He had been watching her for a few years and he had fallen in love with her the first time he saw her. After giving them up for 25 years, his father gave them back to him because he knew Cupid loved this woman. This story will show you, sometimes Love is all you need. Fantastic author combined with fantastic narrators will thrill you.
