Faking romance was easy… until it stopped feeling fake.
Harper Venn is determined to save her small-town bookstore and the historic Main Street of Hollow Creek, from a developer with bulldozer dreams. Her best shot? Pulling off the Pumpkin Festival of the century.
The problem? She must plan it with Dexter Rowen. Her former best friend. Her almost-something. Now he’s back in town, looking infuriatingly good in flannel and very willing to challenge her carefully guarded heart.
When the town mistakes their bickering partnership for romance, Harper and Dex agree to fake date, just until the festival is over. But with cider-fueled nights, meddling neighbors, and a tuxedo cat who clearly has opinions, their pact starts to feel a lot less fake.
Saving the bookstore might take spreadsheets, string lights, and a little bit of small-town magic. Saving her heart? That’s going to take a lot more.
The Pumpkin Pact is a small-town fake dating romance full of autumn charm, second chances, and a grumpy hero who can’t resist his sunshine bookshop girl.
