Quotes:
“Why is Valentine’s Day so important to you?” Sylred asks. “Because. It’s the one time of year where people actually seem to try. The dates. The thinking-of-you gifts. The flirting. The love. The sex. It’s beautiful to see everyone taking a day to celebrate love. It’s what we should do every day. Imagine what life would be like if everyone took the time to adore our loved ones—to express that love in whatever way is meaningful to them. As a cupid, that’s the dream. That love would be cherished, always. So that’s why Valentine’s Day is important, okay? It reminds us to take a moment and appreciate our loved ones.”
“Either my vagina just sprouted a geyser, or my water just broke.”
“I’ll have you know, that my vagina usually looks super appealing. You caught it at a bad time.” “It was like seeing a fleshy watermelon squeezing out of a fleshy oyster,” he says with a shudder."

❗️❗️Minor spoiler in the review (ok, it's not that much of a spoiler if you take the time to look at the cover of the novella, but still...)
This novella is super cute and funny, and I have to say that I enjoyed it more this second time around.
This is a nice epilogue to Emelle’s adventure in the Heart Hassle series, although it is not the end of the whole series. There is no big plot, it's really about how life goes on for Emelle and her men. It is only 130 pages or so, making it a quick and enjoyable read.
Seeing Emelle and her guys trying to survive parenthood was adorable, and hilarious at the same time. The author did a fantastic job of combining cute and heartwarming moments, sexy smutty scenes, and typical Emelle silly situations.
If you enjoyed the trilogy, you will like this novella for sure.

This definitely had it's funny ass moments.
For the Love of Cupidity is a valentine's day novella for the Heart Hassle series. In it, we are getting to see the group that we've fallen in love with from books 1-3. We also get to meet their daughter, who is freaking adorable. Especially when she gets stabby with arrows to teach cupids that she means business. Again, adorable af.
Besides laughing at the most absurd shit in this book, it also had it's fair share of drama. Which I honestly I didn't understand. Like, why would one of their moms be so butt hurt about one of them marrying her? She gave them a kid.. and is pregnant again. I would think any parent would be happy - right? No? Idk.. I don't have kids..
Overall, it was a fun and quick read. So glad to get another piece from this series.

The birthing scene had me cackling and is probably the only reason this novella gets 4 stars!

💘✨“But remember, love? You’re always doing impossible things.” I smile. “That’s because I knew.” “Knew what?” Ronak asks softly, careful not to wake any of our babies. “That you all were worth every impossible thing,” I reply tenderly.✨💘

I normally hate the pregnancy trope, but this was a super cute HEA novella. It wrapped up several parts of the book nicely and sets up the spin-off book focusing on Lex well.
Overall, this was a sweet, feel-good novella to conclude Emelle’s series.

Well wasn't that just the cutest freaking thing!
I absolutely love Emelle and her guys and it was great seeing how they turned out. I am so happy that she got her happily ever after.
Emelle is definitely one of my favorite female MC. She is hilarious, even when she was giving birth.
This series was pretty much perfect.

4.5 stars - I could have given it 5 stars, to be honest!
I loved this novella. It was so nice to be back in this world and see these characters again. I loved everything about this. It was funny, sweet, sexy and just a joy to read. I'm so glad the author decided to write this novella after the first three books. We got to see them with their children and it was so freaking adorable.
If this author writes something new, you can be sure I'll be picking it up.

It was sweet as a cheesecake! It hasn't answered all of the questions I had at the end of book 3 and it did leave me with even more questions, however, I will never have enough of Emelle and her little harem. Amorette was just a cherry on a top of the cake :)

Adorable! Emelle and her guys take on parenting and I love it. Its definitely not all roses and rainbows.. I love that RK showed the rougher side of parenting even if Emelle might have it worse than others.. this being a paranormal series and all. I mean who wants to birth a bull..
This was just a really cute short story with smut turned up past max, showing Emelle and her guys as well as how they are handling their brood. I love the fact that we start the story with their first daughter already born.. and the in laws.. lol.
Incredibly entertaining still. I am wondering about Lex though, she was mentioned in the book very briefly and its been 4 years since the last book in the series.. and Lex is still mourning.. shouldn't there be an HEA at the very least otw for this girl!! Can't wait. Also would love to see how Emelle and the guys act when that oldest hellion starts dating.... LOL.

Perfection
If that wasn’t the best way to spend my Valentine’s Day then I don’t know what it. Okay I could probably think of a few other things...but holy hell that was the most amazing novella to end three spellbindingly erotic, hilarious, god damn addictive books. I wasn’t quite sure about the whole harem of men thing to begin with but now I’m just jealous. Bloody Emelle...if I didn’t think she was the most awesome heroine ever then I’d probably hate her. But no, every character in the book was completely lovable in their own way. Equal parts sexy and funny. Loved...loved..loved these books.

What a great series!
Wow this was amazing! I started this series not losing what to expect but am very happy to have read it! It was so freaking amazing and the storyline was on point! I do wish it would of told me what ended up happening to Lex and the Hooked Horn in the end. I was disappointed that it didn't say what he ended up choosing and if he and Lex ever had a reunion but that was just a little detail. I loved all the guys and the surprises along the way helped keep me entertained! Emelle had me cracking up with her sense of humor. I definitely recommend this series of you haven't read it yet and enjoy a good RH!

I was so happy to have this followup to Emelle and her guys’ HEA. Because this takes place a few years after the end of book three a lot has changed. Like the fact they now have a daughter and are currently pregnant. Insert happy screaming 🥰🥰 The one thing I was expecting was more on Berlin or Lexi and unfortunately we don’t get that. I’m happy Emelle has managed to do her job as head Cupid when she was never really good on her own, it’s so cute now that her guys also have some of those powers. Just wish this too never ended!

Not much to say, really. This novella is a super short little happily ever after that takes place after the main series has finished.
It was nice to see what happened next and get a little more of the happily ever after for the characters from the main series. Fun and quick.

Did I laugh out loud a lot? Yes
Did this make me feel embarrassed for rating the other books so high? Also yes
