I downloaded "Killer Cupid" because it was free. It  remained in my library, unread, for quite a while, but once I began to read it, I simply could not put it down. This book is brilliantly written by Maeve Christopher who  blends an unlikely mix of romance, drama and spirituality into a story that is absolutely riveting. The plot revolves around the love between Debbie, a naive, browbeaten, unhappy, anorexic teenager and David, a sexy, confident, alpha male who is employed as an agent by an elite, top  secret organization mandated by the USA and her allies to fight crime at an international level. The meeting of these two individuals triggers off a series of events which leads to the "redemption" of them both. In the line of duty, David has a close encounter with death and  Debbie is thrust into a world of international espionage - a world fraught with danger. Debbie, too, has her own near death experience, and  David is forced to confront his demons by recognizing his own vulnerabilities and coming to grips with his spiritual side. The book introduces a large cast of characters, each of whom is interesting  and likable. I thoroughly enjoyed "Killer Cupid" and immediately purchased all the other books in the series. I strongly recommend this book, and indeed the entire Redemption Series.
