Years ago when Merry had agreed to be the guardian for her friend's daughter, Charlie, in the event of his death, she didn't really think it would ever happen. Now she's guardian to a grief-stricken eleven year old who is by no means happy by her arrival. To add more trouble, Merry's new neighbor, Jack, doesn't seem to approve either. As time goes on, Merry, Jack and Charlie, along with Jack's two sons, become closer and closer, but Jack's ex-wife had put him through an emotional ringer and he's not sure he wants another relationship. Just when Jack is deciding exactly what he wants from Merry, everything begins to blow up in their faces when Charlie's deadbeat mother returns and attempts to gain custody in order to claim the inheritance that Charlie's father has left her.

I loved Blame It On Cupid! Merry is a delightful mess that readers will quickly come to adore, while Jack is everything a romance hero should be! Jennifer Greene has penned a romance that will keep you smiling all the way through and sad to see the last page. A quirky and fun romance, Blame It On Cupid is one book that romance lovers will want to add to the top of their "to be read" pile!

This book is "loosely connected" to Blame it on Chocolate by the same author.

Second book in series. First Blame it on Chocolate. But don't have to read in order to enjoy. This was a darling, fun read. A feel good book, romance, life, and laughs all in one. Fast read, nice week end pick up. I enjoyed this book much more than i first had thought i would, as i'm not a real chic lit person, but this book didn't turn out to be that way.

Second in the "Blame it on" series. Liked this one even better than the first.

Blame it on Cupid brings us Merry Olson. Merry is flighty, flirty, ditzy, and fun. years ago she agreed to be the guardian of a friends little girl should anything ever happen to her. After not seeing him or his daughter for YEARS, she is called on to honor that agreement because her friend has died, leaving his daughter alone and lost. Merry picks up her flighty life, jumps in her Mini Cooper, and drives from MN to the DC area to move into a strange home and become mom/dad to a 12 year old girl named Charlene, aka Charlie.

Charlie is 12 with the smarts of a 30 year old bookworm. She is practical, logical and very settled. An odd pairing for fun and flighty Merry. Seeking help from neighbor Jack seems natural to both Merry and Charlie and he soon finds that he and his twin 15 yr old sons have become part of this odd new family. Jack might try to resist Merry and her flighty flirty fun, but it doesn't take long before he realizes that he is hooked.
Merry has finally found something worth fighting for. Now all she has to do is figure out just how to fight! Now he has to figure out how to admit love and show Merry love before he blows it big time. Merry, in the meantime, will just continue to lead with her heart, and love with all she has. If it works out in her favor, well, she wlll just blame it on cupid.
