This charming urban fantasy is what you'd have if Terry Pratchett wrote The Good Place, following two agents of love ensnared in a plot to bring down the natural order of the world. Perfect for fans of Jodi Taylor, Garth Nix's 'Booksellers' series and Assistant to the Villain.

'This is the perfect book. It's joyful and funny and sad and flamboyant: everything I always went to Terry Pratchett for' NATASHA PULLEY

'The perfect balance of fast paced and fun ... It hit me in the heart with a gold arrow!' ROSE BLACK, author of Til Death Do Us Bard

Not everything is down to Fate but, when it comes to love, the right people must collide to keep the world running to plan. Immortal cupids, known as Apollo agents, spend their afterlife matching up pre-destined couples to sign off their daily quota. Love cynic, Erron Grover, and hopeless romantic, Casey Hart, are two such agents based in London. They live an afterlife of luxury until several of their assignments result in a bizarre series of deaths.

Under heavy suspicion of involvement, their blossoming relationship begins to fray, but far worse, the unplanned deaths start to cause the very fabric of Fate to unravel. Faced with the collapse of civilisation, far too many geese and a few questionable soul reapers, the two men are forced to go on the run to solve the murders and save the world ... along with their favourite jazz bar.

Tropes:
> Grumpy x Sunshine

I absolutely loved this book! It had everything you could want—great world-building, a gripping plot, and characters I completely fell in love with. Erron, in particular, totally stole my heart. I was so hooked, I kept sneaking off to listen—my husband ended up cooking dinner more than once, and the kids may have had cereal for tea. No regrets! The narration was fantastic and brought the whole world vividly to life.

hooked from the first chapter!
