YOU GET A LOVE STORY AND A HOPE STORY AND TEEN PREGNANCY STORY AND A STAB-TASTIC MALE NOT-SO-LOVE INTEREST.
When I saw this tour invite pop up on my Twitter feed I knew I haaaad to get in on it. After reading the copy, there were a few top tens I had in mind (where to read this, food that I can drown my post-break up sorrows in, quotes that illicit all the feeeeeells) but I knew I had to settle on one.
So that’s what I did.
I settled on the Top Ten Potential Loves of my Life (people Cupid should hit with an arrow for me). After you’re done reading the list, be sure to check out ARROWS on goodreads.
TOP TEN ARROW-STRUCK DREAM GUYS
Come hither:
Via. Bark Post.
THEO JAMES- I saw you in DIVERGENT- which was absolutely
nothing like the book, and I fell in love. I mean the tattoos really sold me. Your
face also sold me. And your biceps. Also you have a nice voice. Want to travel
the world with me?
Via. My BS.
ALEX PETTYFER- When you were in BEASTLY, I died a little. I
don’t even know when I first saw you, but, darling, it was love at first sight,
last sight, and ever sight.
Via. 3 Million Dogs.
NICK BATEMAN – Well I am most for sure going to see UGLY LOVE on the big screen. Yup. It’s happening. SOMEBODY CATCH ME. I’M SWOONING.
Via. Oyster Mag.
MATTHEW GRAY GUBLER- You, sir, are attractive. And super smart in
CRIMINAL MINDS. I like that show. I like it a bunch. We should get lunch and
talk about culture sometime. I like tacos with my social justice.
Via. Animal Fair.
JOSH DUHAMEL- We should go to Rome together! Because, well, WHEN IN ROME. (haha) (movie pun)

Via. Glitter.
LIAM HEMSWORTH- We should watch Netflix together. And read together. Want me build me a library? Suuuuuure I’ll help. In a second. Like putting the books on helping. For now I’ll just watch.

A modern cupid story set in present-day Wisconsin combining the fantastical elements of Greek mythology with the contemporary drama of MTV's Teen Mom.
People don’t understand love. If they did, they’d get why dance prodigy Karma Clark just can’t say goodbye to her boyfriend, Danny. No matter what he says or does or how he hurts her, she can’t stay angry with him . . . and can’t stop loving him. But there’s a reason why Karma is helpless to break things off: she’s been shot with a love arrow.
Aaryn, son of Cupid, was supposed to shoot both Karma and Danny but found out too late that the other arrow in his pack was useless. And with that, Karma’s life changed forever. One pregnancy confirmed. One ballet scholarship lost. And dream after dream tossed to the wind.
A clueless Karma doesn’t know that her toxic relationship is Aaryn’s fault . . . but he’s going to get a chance to make things right. He’s here to convince Danny to man up and be there for Karma. But what if this god from Mount Olympus finds himself falling in love with a beautiful dancer from Wisconsin who can never love him in return?
This fast-paced debut novel explores the internal & external conflicts of a girl who finds herself inexplicably drawn to a boy who seemingly doesn't reciprocate her feelings, touching on the issues of love, sex and responsibility, with a heroine struggling to control her destiny--perfect for fans of Katie McGarry's novels and MTV’s 16 and Pregnant.
