ARC: The Cupid Dilemma: A Novel by April Asher

 The Cupid Dilemma by April Asher was such a fun, cute read. I gave this one 3.5 stars and honestly had a great time with it. It’s funny, charming, and doesn’t take itself too seriously—in the best way. It’s a fun, low-stress paranormal rom-com that doesn’t ask too much of you and delivers exactly what it promises.

We’ve got a demigoddess wedding planner in PR chaos and a rockstar with zero creative spark. The solution? Fake dating, obviously. It’s silly, it’s chaotic, and it works way better than it has any right to. I loved how mythology was blended into a modern setting—it felt fresh without being complicated. The banter is easy, the rom-com moments are solid, and the magic elements add just enough sparkle without taking over the story.

Fake dating done right ✔️ (a win, because that trope can be hit or miss)
Modern romance with a mythological twist ✔️
Fun banter and easy chemistry ✔️

Big highlight for me: the MMC falling first. Watching Nix slowly catch feelings (and his muse) was genuinely adorable. Overall, this is the kind of book you pick up when you want something funny, light, and comforting—not angsty, not heavy, just a good time.

Perfect for rom-com lovers, fake dating fans, and anyone who enjoys a little mythology mixed into their modern romance.
