Cupid's Shot

High Five Novella Series, Book 2

De: Serena Pier

Narrado por: Liam DiCosimo, Bridget Bordeaux

Since when does Aaron Olson have abs like that? I haven’t seen him since high school, but now I find myself desperate to see much more of him.

Sarah Anderson's plan for the Cupid's Crush event at the local bar, High Five, is straightforward: enjoy some playful banter and score a free drink. After a decade on the West Coast, Sarah’s still adjusting to life back in her small Wisconsin hometown, surrounded by familiar faces—until one of them completely catches her off guard. Aaron Olson, the once scrawny high school wrestler, is now tending bar shirtless with fluffy angel wings strapped to his back, revealing a physique that is distracting in the best way.

What starts as light-hearted banter turns into a flirtatious game of cat and mouse, where Sarah learns that you shouldn’t judge someone by who they were in high school—because they might just surprise you in the most irresistible ways.

In this flirty and steamy Valentine’s themed novella, discover the thrill of seeing an old friend in a whole new light, and watch sparks fly as past perceptions are shattered and new attractions take hold.

(This is Book #2 in an interconnected series. It is encouraged, but not essential, to listen to Santa's Coming before listening to Cupid's Shot.)

Aaron (MMC's) and Sarah (FMC)

Pros: Adorable spicy novella about childhood friends who reconnect as adults at a bar's Valentine's Day themed evening and fall for each other.

The MMC is shy when out and ahout, but HOT and BOSSY when in bed 🛌 🔥 🥵 ♨️

Cons: There isn't a lot of character development, but that's probably expected due to the short nature of the book.


Overall, it was a delightful read. I look forward to the other books in this series.

Happy reading! 📚

Great way to get into the Valentine’s Day spirit

I loved this book. It was a super easy and short read but super entertaining and was a great way to get into the Valentine’s Day spirit. It would also be a great read at any point throughout the year.

Must read and or listen

This book was an absolute delight! It had the perfect mix of spice, suspense, and swoon-worthy moments that kept me smiling (and maybe blushing a little). The story was so fun and engaging, and the narrators completely brought it to life—each character had their own unique voice, making it feel like I was right there with them. If you love a charming mix of cute, steamy, this one is a must-listen!guess I might not have wanted to be right there because that literally made things a little awkward. Can’t wait for Shamrock Kisses and Run Bunny Run!

Fantastic!

Yet another amazing quick read! Love these novellas so much! Spicy as heck and the banter is great! Loved the romantic side of Aaron in this one so much and I loved the sassy side of Sarah in here! So good and the audible and narrations were phenomenal! Loved it all!

❤️

This book was fun. I loved how the female narrator sounded like Megra from Hercules

Loved it!

This was such a cute short romantic novella. I definitely felt the valentine vibes and the Cupid custom was the cherry on top. The main female has a secret admirer in a small town. I absolutely loved this story. It was easy to read and it was enjoyable. Liam DiCosimo and Bridget Bordeaux did an amazing job narrating this story.

Cupid scores!

A cute and spicy read that will get you all up in your feels! Aaron sure knows how to romance a girl and leave her wanting more. Sometimes the best things in life have been standing in front of you the entire time and you just need the poke of cupids arrow to see it!

For the audiobook, you can tell how much fun these narrators had voicing the characters. Great chemistry and very playful!

Love it

I love this series and Serena’s writing! Plus she’s a fellow Wi girlie. Bridget and Liam crushed the audio. Seriously it’s a quick listen so listen to it

So cute and steamy!

Absolutely loved this book!
It is done Duet style. It’s short, cute, and steamy.
Aaron has a dirty mouth and Sarah is loving it.
Sort of a second chance. They knew each other in high school but he was too shy to ask her out. Definitely worth the listen! Highly recommend

“Sassy girls always want someone to boss them around.”

This story is fast-paced, sweet, and a little bit spicy.

Sarah and Aaron are both locals who spent some time away from home and are now back. They also both, for different reasons, have one rule, "no townies". A rule that they will soon be breaking.

After the successful Christmas event, the High Five bar is having another pop-up holiday event, this time for Valentine's Day, and with Aaron dressed only in angel wings and jeans, Sarah notices that he's not the scrawny guy he was in high school anymore.

I love how Aaron played into the whole secret admirer thing until he finally got the girl he's wanted since high school.

Bridget Bordeaux and Liam Dicosimo are both ntm narrators and I really enjoyed their performance in this sweet novella.

Quote: “I’ve never given out my number in the bar... before you. You’re the only one... I’m breaking all my rules with you.”
