《Cupid's Match : CUPID'S MATCH BOOK 1》Published version of Cupid's Match: out today!!!
Advertisement
I can't believe the day has finally come! I started Cupid's Match back in 2015 as a wannabe author writing about cupids on the Internet, and today it actually hits bookstores as an actual book! How is this real life?!?! Thank you all so much for sticking with me for all of this time. I couldn't have done it without you. :)
Amazon, Barnes and Noble, The Book Depository (great for international orders), Indigo, Or wherever books are sold! Links on my Wattpad bio! (--->)
(If you get hold of a copy and post a pic on social media, please tag me so I can share it in my insta stories! I'm LaurenPalphreyman on Instagram!)
Yes! In case you missed it, an all new version of Cupid's Match hits bookstores in the US and Canada on 1st October (today!!), and hits stores in the UK on 3rd October!
Yes! The version on Wattpad is a very rough draft. I posted chapters for you as I was writing it, and I was figuring out the story for myself as I did so!
The published version is based on the Wattpad version - so it still has all the bits you love - but it's different. I took on board your feedback, I revised and rewrote it with a clearer idea of who the characters were and what I wanted the story to be, and then I worked with some amazing professional editors who tore it apart and helped me put it back together again to make it much much better!
There are lots of new scenes, more character and world development, more Cupid, Cal, and Lila! And the story differs in quite a few places! I'm really proud of it and I'm so excited for you to read all the new bits!!

Never! The first draft will always remain here for you to read for free. I hope you'll want to check out the new version if you can as it really supports me as an author, but Wattpad has always been the home for Cupid's Match and I don't plan on changing that. You guys supported me, helped shape the story, and even though it's a rough version of the book it holds a special place in my heart!
No worries! The first draft will always be free here on Wattpad! You can also ask your local library to stock Cupid's Match so you can borrow it for free!
I'm also planning on running some Cupid's Match giveaways in future!

Thank you all so much for your support. When I first started writing on Wattpad I had no idea anyone would want to read my action- packed supernatural book about cupids, arrows, and general mythological mayhem! I'm so often overwhelmed by all your kindness, votes, jokes, and comments. Writing is hard, and it can be a lonely process. It has been such a blessing to have you all here with me, keeping me going and making it so much fun. I'm so grateful, and I'm so excited for all the things yet to come!
Lots of love to you all!
Lauren

The Last King
Gods, Demons, Roland has friends among both. And enemies. As a person who's strength rivals those at the peak of power, Roland likes to live life at hie leisure. Passive most days, immovable on as a mountain on others. Yet nothing is without a price, and the time to pay up once again is drawing closer fast. *** Four mortals stand inside a large hall. Having reached the end of a long journey, their last chance at survival rests in a dangerous Summoning that could leave them crippled. But they have no other option left to them. Cursed by a mysterious group of beings for reasons unknown and currently hunted by enemies far outmatching them in strength, they gamble everything on the hope that someone answers their call. *** -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Author: Things like NTR, rape and the like are things i hate so if people are worried about that stuff i want to let you know that those things will not be happening. EDIT(June 18): So I should warn you guys, I have been told that the chapters have too many info dumps. This is a shortcoming that i am now aware of thanks to comments and reviews mentioning that fact. Since i know many readers enjoy the character interactions much more, that is what im planning to increase with my future chapters. I would say only my more recent chapters have decent amounts of character interactions and this is what i will take a larger focus on from now on. Although there will still be information presented, I intend to not make them so long. If you can get past the info dumps, you may like the story. Who knows. EDIT(August 19): The summary above is new. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I dont usually do this... but if you like TLK, this story, then feel free to check out my other work: http://royalroadl.com/fiction/5893

Endsworld
This entire story is basically just me, having seen a piece of art on Tumblr, rereading Gerard Way's The True Lives Of The Fabulous Killjoys and getting an idea that may or may not be a good thing?Set in a futuristic world similar to the one in Killjoys, but a bit less cynical. (If that makes sense)Please note that I've done absolutely no planning for this, have no idea when it will update or where I'm going, and the only ships in it are the ones that are confirmed to be canon. This means only Paultryck and Kim&Katya, whose ship name I don't know, and from what I've heard, Eduardo&Laurel is also canon(?), though I'm not sure if the neighbors will actually be in this much. Again, haven't planned anything!All I can say for sure is I won't kill any of the main cast, and this will revolve around the original four, namely Edd, Tom, Matt and Tord, with pre-The End designs (read as, "I like edgy Tord with darker hair"). Essentially it's their designs from Spares.Rated PG-13 to possibly M depending on where you live for gore/death and swearing-I'm not really one for gruesome details though so I try to keep the gory stuff a bit vague. You can always ask me about how bad it is before reading if you're worried it'll upset you, my inbox is always open.
