Cupid Missed is the story of a breakup, told from a man's
perspective. Matthew is crushed when he returns home from work one
night to find that his girlfriend, Kate, has moved out. He hadn't
seen it coming, and he isn't handling it very well. His friends
tell him to "Go out, get laid, and get over it," but he finds the
advice easier said than done. When he's not concocting far-fetched
schemes to get Kate back, Matthew is making terrible decisions at
home and at work. He realizes the need to make changes in his life,
but it seems he's more interested in doing things that only prolong
the agony. Finally, in a desperate attempt to regain control of his
life, Matthew quits his job and jumps on a plane to Europe for a
pilgrimage of self-discovery. The result, according to author Ruth
Francisco, is a "Dantesque journey to recovery (that) sends him on
a hilarious journey into the sordid dens of debauchery in Amsterdam
and Ibiza, where a guru in the guise of an Ecstasy-addled English
girl teaches him life's lessons." While it's clear that Cupid's
first arrow has hit Matthew squarely in the chest, the second
arrow, meant for Kate, has missed wide right. Cupid Missed wryly
explores the before and after of a relationship gone bad, and the
steps, and missteps, Matthew takes to get over Kate.
