When it comes to love, there’s no competition.
When Cynthia Pruitt dreamed of reeling in the catch of a lifetime, she meant seafood. Not her soul mate.
Part-time jobs in the quaint fishing village of Maiden’s Bay pay the bills, but they do little to calm Cynthia’s adventurous spirit. She dreams of commanding the open sea aboard her own crab fishing vessel. When a popular local captain hosts a week-long contest to find a new greenhorn for his fishing vessel, she can’t pass up the opportunity. Her goal is to prove she can do anything the men can do, and that includes sharing a room with one for the duration of the tryouts. She’s expecting to bunk with Captain Ahab-not Captain America.
Liam Reynolds has put his past as a greenhorn behind him. After an accident at sea left him scarred, he’s content to stay ashore. But when his friend asks him to help assess greenhorn candidates, he’s hard pressed to refuse. But his time onboard reawakens his enthusiasm for working on the water. Unfortunately, it also ignites a passion for one of his competitors, who also happens to be his roommate. He can fight for the job or fight for Cynthia, but he can’t have both.
With every wave that crashes against the hull, their connection deepens and so do the stakes. As secrets surface and desires unfurl, they must navigate turbulent waters toward a potential life together and chart the best course forward. Failure to do so could set them permanently off course. Will Cynthia’s dreams sail beyond the horizon, or will the net of their intertwined hearts be caught in the throes of deception?
Casting Cupid is a captivating love story of self-discovery, trust, and the transformative power of love set against the backdrop of a enchanting little coastal town hiding big dreams and bigger secrets.
