《Cupid's Match : CUPID'S MATCH BOOK 1》Chapter 1
Advertisement
Dear Lila,
I am contacting you on behalf of The Cupids Matchmaking Service.
You will not have heard of us but we are an organization that works behind the scenes of society, identifying each person's perfect match.
Usually we would not contact our clients. We prefer to work in secrecy - setting up the ideal environment for the two matches to have a chance encounter.
Recently, however, we ran your details through our system and...well...in your case...
We think you'd better come in.
Please respond at your earliest convenience.
Yours Urgently,
The Cupids Matchmaking Service
Hi! I'm Lauren! It's so nice to meet you!
Welcome to the magical and mythological world of Cupid's Match!
It's a world filled with crime-lord sirens, cupid hitmen, magic arrows, high school drama, and a mischievous love god whom our main character, Lila, can't quite stop herself from falling for...!
I started writing Cupid's Match on Wattpad back in 2015 and I had so much fun writing it. But I should warn you. . . this Wattpad version of Cupid's Match is a FIRST DRAFT! You are reading the original, raw, rough version which means that alongside the general cupid chaos, you find spelling and grammar errors.
(Also - sometimes you might THINK there is a spelling mistake, but actually it's because I'm British! I live in London and we spell things differently to America over here! Where are you from? Let me know in the comments!)
Due to it being a first draft you will also encounter some general weirdness in terms of plot, characters, structure, and story development.
The Cupid's Match trilogy has also been published in French (Maudit Cupidon) and German (Everlasting Love). Book one is available in Spanish under the name 'El Match de Cupido'!
I will always leave this version here on Wattpad for you to read because - even though it's a very rough version of the story - it holds a special place in my heart, and Wattpad readers helped shape it into what it is today.

But if you're interested in the published version, or you just generally want to know what I'm up to, come follow me here on Wattpad (click ---> ), or on social media for updates.
I'm on
For any fellow Wattpadders looking for tips on how to get reads, I wrote down some of the things that helped me when I was starting out with Cupid's Match. You can check them out in the tips books available on my profile. Or head over to my blog where I post writing advice (www.LaurenPalphreyman.com/blog).
Hope you enjoy the story!
love,
Lauren

Dip$h!+s in Space
An eccentric comedy novel (that thinks it's a TV show) about space, and the Dipsh!+s that end up stranded in it. This hyper-self-aware comedy of stupid proportions, centers around Captain William T Lawg (no relation) and his adventures as a guy who managed to afford a refitted soft-top ice-cream truck, in space. Explore the universe with his trusty crew of valiant randos. Marley, the tech-bro, stoner spacebunny, who just wants to get away from his home world and the bullies it harbors. Duffy, the plump and sassy female mechanic, who has had every job in existence totaling far more years than possible. Roy, the frigging fabulous, flamboyant android, and former spy…or possibly current spy. (dun dun, daaaa!) And lastly, but certainly leastly, that other chick the captain keeps trying to bang. Ride with the crew of the notorious Tast-E-Chill, to a world of wonder that a lot of other space travelers have already been before, but probably not Lawg, so it's still exciting. This satirical joke on itself and every sci-fi trope ever to exist, will be sure to either thrill you or disappoint you, because COMEDY…IS…SUBJECTIVE! With a crew of 3-10 and an IQ of also probably 3-10, The captain putters along to uncharted lands, where history, loot, drama, innuendos of the sexual verity, and various Technicolor hoes shall surely be waiting, usually with some form of trap. Each season brings new and interesting crewmen, like: Menace: the adorable genderless frog-child-thing with the heart of gold and the dialogue vocabulary of a slightly trained parrot. Greg: the 8 foot tall, ancient, thermonuclear, semi-retired alien overlord who just wants to prove he still has a purpose…and also to rule the galaxy. Izzy: a 3rd generation, age-reversed reboot, accidental clone of her own mother/sister/older self, who happens to be Greg's daughter-in-law…and much, much more. Prepare yourself for shallow adventure, moderately-to high offensive dialogue, and overwhelmingly childish scenarios. Tag along as the crew battles, fierce enemies, lack of food and survival tape, and occasionally their own incompetence. Teen Romance, current politics, subtlety, dignity, this sucker has none of those, and it darn well knows it. Raise the sails and grab the rails as a bunch of dipsh!+s find themselves...IN SPACE. (Roll dramatic tapering credits, to royalty free trumpet music)
