Oliver Finch isn't a hero. He isn't popular. He's the kid who once got his head stuck in a sweater for three consecutive class periods.
But everything changes when 11-year-old Oliver finds a mysterious rose-gold disc at the bottom of his cereal bowl - and is suddenly recruited into Heart-Core, a secret organization of Cupids who manage the world's kindness.
The twist? Oliver is the first human recruit in history.
Assigned to his toughest mission yet, Oliver must help two lonely classmates - shy Jax and science-loving Maya - form a real friendship before the school's Valentine's Day dance. No magic arrows allowed. Just empathy, courage, and a whole lot of middle-school awkwardness.
Armed with high-tech gadgets, a grumpy Cupid supervisor, and his own growing confidence, Oliver faces bullies, emotional challenges, and sneaky Spite-Works saboteurs determined to drain kindness from the school.
As Valentine's Day approaches, Oliver discovers that real magic isn't about spells or wings - it's about noticing others, standing up for friends, and choosing kindness when it matters most.
Heartwarming, funny, and inspiring, The Cupid in Training is a charming school adventure about friendship, courage, and the quiet power of being human.
Perfect for readers who love emotional stories with humor, heart, and meaningful life lessons.
