The Trouble with Playing Cupid The Cupid Series Book 1 edition by Tamara Philip Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
The Trouble with Playing Cupid is a cute and sweet story that you can read in one sitting. December is a successful singer with a heart of gold. I LOVE December! I found her non-divaness refreshing, and she donates a lot of money to charities. She uses her fame and money to help others, and that endeared her to me for life.
Tom is a British actor and a total heartthrob. I wasn't quite rooting for a romance between the two at first because during the appearance on Trace Randall's show, Tom seemed a little bit like a jerk and too aloof for my liking. Does he not pay attention to who other people are? He didn't even know who December is! I'm pretty sure IRL British actors know American celebrities. They mix. They mingle. I was kind of like, "How dare you, Tom!" See how much I love December??
"When he played the role of a self-indulgent vampire..." = best line ever! I laughed so hard when I read that about Tom! Kind of sounds like a Lestat-type character.
When I realized there's more to Tom than what he shows on camera, I was on board for him to get together with December. I liked the buildup to their romance, and it was very sweet.
The Trouble with Playing Cupid had me laughing, swooning, and cringing - sometimes all three at the same time. I ended up loving the characters, especially December's bodyguard and stylist. There was more telling than showing sometimes, but it's a short read, so I think it was in order to give background on the characters. I thought The Trouble with Playing Cupid was a standalone going in, but once I found out there's a sequel, I'm looking forward to finding out more about December's best friend and agent, Clarissa.
The Trouble with Playing Cupid features a famous singer named December Brown, and a famous actor she has a crush on, named Tom Elmswood.
For a publicity stunt, a talk show host who's friends with December, hosts both December and Tom on his show, and outs her crush on the actor from a drunk text December sent.
I thought this book was cute. It was so cute, I thought it might better suit a different age range, because at time the book was more adorable than most romance books I've read.
Tom Elmswood was this reclusive British actor, who had an interesting back story. December was a Beyonce-esque singer, who I would've liked if she displayed her inner diva a little more =)
The romance in the book is gradual, but it is believable, but if you're looking for something a little steamier, this is a much cleaner romance. Im open to clean and steamy, so I didn't have any complaints about that.
I think the only thing that brought out a reaction in me was that December was much fairer and less distinguishably Black if you didn't know she was. Black women have diverse looks, so fairer girls need representation too, I've just read a lot of books that didn't deviate from the "light skinned is beautiful" trope, that's all. It was also funny how, as famous as they were, they seemed to be able to come and go as they pleased, like they weren't easily recognized.
I'd probably go insane over an actor in a McDonalds commercial, so even though it's not a deal breaker, I would've liked to see someone go nuts over seeing them walking casually down the street of NYC.
If you're looking for a fun novel about British hunks, interracial themes, and cleaner romance stories, I'd highly suggest "The Trouble with Playing Cupid!
I received this book for free in exchange for a review.
This was a great read. The humor in the book had me laughing out loud. And yes I was smiling the whole time while I was reading. Keep up the good work.
A great first novel by Ms. Tamara Philip. I loved reading about December and Tom. Ms. Philip did a wonderful job of bringing them to life and making them feel like real people. I loved her writing which merged a charmingly sweet love story with a touch of comic wit. I did however wish that there was a bit more conflict, if only to draw the story out a little. I can't wait to read Tamara`s next offering.
I laughed and cried along with the characters. I fell in love with the story line and the Characters. I Love Tom! He was the most down to earth man with a heart of Gold! December AKA Dee banter and sweet talk had me on a emotional roller coaster.I would love to have friends like Clarissa and Terrence. This book (genre) is a book that I have never read. Tamara wove magic when writing this and also has made me become a fan of Romantic Comedies. Awesome!!!
I very well written sweet story. I especially liked how the celebrities came across as real people who were lucky enough to have jobs doing something that made them happy (and pays well!). It could have used a little more conflict - a backstabbing ex, some racist relatives, a kidnapping, but on the other hand, it's nice when people just get along without a lot of unnecessary drama. Plus, you can see where conflict might come up in the next book.
Note I didn't know bw/wm was a thing so now I'm intrigued! In any case the woman is clearly described as a light skinned black (or possibly biracial) woman. Think Halle Berry, not Lupita Nyong'o. To the author, if the skin tone of the cover model is the worst thing somebody can find to say about your work then well done, madam! Well done!
This book was very sweet and cute! A couple of celebrities are thrown together in a televised attempt at matchmaking, and the resulting story is engaging and romantic.
