Crazy, Stupid, Lazy, Cupid

Rate this book
From the writer of THE SUPERNATURAL DATING AGENCY.

Cupid's have targets other than human hearts...

After cheating on her monthly figures, Samara finds herself sent back to Cupid training school by the big boss himself. If she's to pass her probation, she'll have to prove she is capable of creating genuine love matches.

But things don't get off to a great start when she finds out that pets aren't allowed in school. Difficult when your husband has been turned into a Whippet until you've proven yourself.

Someone should have known that the crazy, stupid, lazy, cupid would try to find a short cut. It's a walk in the park to create new romances, and she can exercise Johnny at the same time.

But not everyone wants Samara to succeed. Someone is waiting to take the lead...

This is a standalone book, but Samara first appeared in the Supernatural Dating Agency series.

Favorite Quotes:

Max beamed like the goody-goody twat he was. From now on I was calling him Vax because of his sucking skills and being full of crap.

There were plenty of photogenically challenged folks around here. I was tempted to offer a few a discount for the grooming salon.

Johnny is now a Whippet and in doggy daycare… So in the meantime, I have to look for pet-friendly places to visit at the weekends and make do with my husband getting his dirty paws on me rather than his hands… How about the fact I have to pick up his poop? My love life is crap, literally.

Rhonda. She’s totally into the dark arts and seances and all that shit. Or so she says. Personally, I just think she sits at home watching The Craft and painting her nails black.


My Review:

Andie M. Long has devised another creatively contrived world to exist among the humans which was filled with recognizable immortals and myths, irreverent humor, an unhappy spirit, clever bits of magic, and snarky characters.

It appears that my education has certainly been lacking. I was totally unaware that Cupid had amassed an army, or that he had established a training school complete with a Principal and School Psychologist. And when his underlings don’t perform up to snuff or willfully break the rules, they were called in for punishment and additional training. His minions had rules to follow, monthly targets, and reports to file. Oh my, this was really organized, or disorganized as it turned out.

Samara was one of Cupid’s own bloodline and was failing spectacularly; she wasn’t meeting her quotas, had broken several rules, and turned in false reports – someone snitched. To force her compliance, her sexy and beloved husband Johnny was turned into an actual canine and would remain as such until she shaped up and cooperated with retraining. The experience, though humbling and seldom pleasant, was a priceless one, however, the most valuable lessons she learned were not part of the curriculum or taught by her instructors.

This is a spin off from the fantastic supernatural dating agency series by the fabulous Andie M Long. The series starts by following Samara who works for Cupid and she was living life with her husband and working in Withernsea. Fate intervenes and causes some chaos and now Samara is having to go back to Cupid school to learn how to be a better Cupid and her husband is a dog! I loved the side characters in this story as much as I loved Samara and I for one, can't wait to see What the future holds for them. This book was so much fun to read, full of laughter, completely unique and I cannot wait for the next book to see what the future holds for this fab cast of characters. A smashing read.

As the blurb states,this is the first book in a spin off from the successful Supernatural Dating Agency Series and it can be read as a Standalone,yet a fabulous continuation for those of us who have read all about the goings on in Withernsea (SDA).
I don't need to say too much about the concept as again the blurb gives enough away,and it would be a spoiler to do so anyway!
What I will say is that it is a laugh out loud,well written story,that has some surprising twists and turns along the way,featuring character's old and new,with some added mystery,and an 'OMG I DIDN'T SEE THAT COMING' moment towards the end.

As a fan of the author,I absolutely loved this and I can't wait to see what will happen next!!

So much fun. Samara is failing as a cupid so she is sent back to school. We get to experience how Samara navigates being back in school while someone seems to have it in for her. You think you know but as with all the stories that are connected to Withernsea, you never really know until it’s revealed. I love Samara and her spunky personality. Faced with a situation not of her choosing, she does the work needed and just might turn the world of Cupid’s on its head. Excited to see where we go next with this cast of characters. I voluntarily read an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.

This book begins after the prequel and Samara is sent back to training and she is not happy about it but their are so many things going on at the same time but they all come together by the end. Enjoyable book and the characters were quite entertaining too. In order to read the prequel to this book just join Andie's newsletter. I was given a copy of this book through free giveaway without obligation. I am providing an honest review.

This book had me laughing out lies in places. It has all the humour I’ve come to expect from Andies books. Whilst it can be read as a stand-alone, it’s nice to see mentions of characters from her supernatural dating agency series, and I can’t wait to see more in subsequent books.

As someone who doesn’t read paranormal or supernatural books, I cannot put these books down!

Crazy, Stupid, Lazy, Cupid by Andie M Long a five-star read you will love. This is the first in the Cupid Inc series and I for one am all bring it on!! I loved the supernatural dating agency series and this spin off series is stand-alone but if you haven’t read the dating agency then I would recommend that you get it as its amazing, but you don’t need to have read them. Samara was so much fun, getting to know her and watch her going to school and getting up to mischief. Is Samara lazy, or genius in disguise. Throw in a bit of drama and a whippet that always makes life better and you have a winner.

What an amazing start to the new series. Omg. I love Samara so much. This book had me laughing out loud. I even interrupted my sons viewing to read him snippits from the book.

This book is easy to read and a perfect book to read after a long day at work.

Looking forward to the rest of the series now.

What a fantastic start to the series! This is a spin off series from the Supernatural Dating Agency which I loved! This book follows Samara who works for Cupid, whose husband is currently a whippet! I’m loving the new characters and I can’t wait to see what happens next!

I laughed so much reading this book. Andie M Long sure knows how to write a Rom com! Cannot wait for the next book which will take place back in Withernsea and I’m sure we will see many familiar faces from the past series!

Cupid Inc. Needs Samara

The supernatural series is fun and different and Samara is not as selfish as she seems. She is sent back to headquarters for retraining and what a time it is.

Samara is kicked back to Cupid school and somebody is trying to sabotage her. A fun mystery, with goofy British name calling and great ideas for matchmaking. She's away from her Withernsea friends, read the dating agency series for that crew, and trying to avoid certain people while an unknown assailant won't back off. Plus, she's matching people even though she doesn't want to be a Cupid. Samara is a little silly, very witty and and not even lazy. This is going to be a fun series with lots of laughs and great characters. My copy came from the author, review written voluntarily.

Crazy, Stupid, Lazy, Cupid is book one and a perfect way to start the Cupid Inc. series. In this book we get Samara's story. Samara is not fulfilling her duties as a Cupid in Withernsea so she is sent back to school. Love how Samara handles going back to school and the mystery of finding out who is out to get her. This is an entertaining read full of humor, mystery, suspense, magic, love and perfectly quirky, fun characters. I definitely recommend this book to everyone and trust me you will not be disappointed because this author really knows how to write great books. I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book.

The drama in this book was off the hooks!!! I have to say though, I felt so bad for Samara as we learn more about her, and her upbringing. The suffering that she went thru, and is still going through having to be re-trained, it just insane!

There was the fun factor that I have come to expect/love in Long's books, and there was plenty of drama and suspense happening too! (Seriously, I was so caught off guard when all was revealed!)

Overall, I think this was a great start to a new series, and I love that we still got some updates from the characters of the Supernatural Dating Series as well.

Thank goodness!

I was very worried that I'd not get to see any more of my fav Super naturals, but bam, here we are Cupid Inc 🎉🎉🎉🎉

Samara having to go back to Cupid school AND loose her husband 😮😮, well not really lol.

But as she's at school things start to happen, not good things.

After a LOT of ups and downs Cupid pulls a cracker of life changes for Samara and her new gang.

Onto the next 👍😁😁

A good companion to the Supernatural Dating Agency series

Following on from the last book in the Supernatural Dating Agency series this book follows Samara, one of Cupid's angels as she goes back to Cupid school. Along with her assignments she has to deal with her father and find out who is trying to hurt her. Oh yeah, and her husband has been turned into a whippet! Well written and funny with some adult moments.

Samara got caught not being honest with her Cupid counts and was sent back to Cupid school. Her husband, Johnny, was turned into a Whippet and there is someone out to get Samara. A couple of characters from Withernsea (Supernatural Dating Agency series) help Samara from time to time in this entertaining story.

This is a brilliant start to what I know promises to be a great series. It is a spin off from the authors Supernatural Dating Agency series.

I love the humour the author brings to all of her books, and this one was no exception. I found myself laughing out loud right from the beginning chapter, and that continued all the way through.

I am excited to see what comes next in the series.

I loved this book. This book is a the first in a new spin off series and what a start to the series it is. This romcom had me laughing, smiling and there is a couple of twist and and almighty “i didnt see that coming” moment at the end. We also see a couple of the old characters and they blended in well. I can’t wait for the next book to see what is in store.

A fun book about the Cupids in real life, specifically one who is in trouble. So much trouble that her husband is turned into a dog, and she is sent back to school to be retrained. Great character growth helps this book be nore than a silly story. Fun to read anytime, but an extra treat at this Valentine's season.

Absolute brilliant Spin off of Andie M. Long's Supernatural Dating Agency.
Samara, a Cupid is back at Cupid school after having run into trouble, as she was using Shelley's success figures for her own targets.
Johnny, her husband, is currently a Whipet, kind of punishment & she's to do a lot of learning and there also seems to be someone after her...
Highly recommend book, the humour is just as hilarious as in the Supernatural dating agency books.
Now I'm off to read the 2nd book...
