Pumpkin to Talk About
(2024)(The second book in the There's Pumpkin in the Air series)
A novel by EmKay Connor
Josie Sweet
Ever since Lucas Yates and I were king and queen of the Fall Festival, everyone has been hinting that we belong together. I can't take another season of pressure from friends and family, so I approach Lucas with a proposition: Let's fake date.
He agrees, but on one condition. I have three weeks to take him from cinnamon roll to stud muffin. When we fake break-up, he'll be ready to woo my arch nemesis who he's had a crush on since tenth grade.
Everything goes according to plan until I realize I'm falling for my best guy friend. Spending all this time together has shown me pieces of him I've never seen before. Do I keep my feelings a secret so he can finally score with someone else, or claim him for myself?
What's a best friend to do?
Lucas Yates
There's only one woman in the world for me, but I've been permanently relegated to friend status. Everyone else can see we'd be perfect together except her.
When she pitches the idea of fake dating so she doesn't have to listen to anymore well-intentioned hints, I finally have a legit opportunity to treat Jose like more than a friend. Hopefully, ramping up the pressure by claiming to still have feelings for my high-school crush will show her what she's missing out on.
My plan seems to be working until Josie arranged a blind date for me and my alleged dream girl. I'm all out of clever maneuvers, but what happens if I confess and her feelings are just as fake as this pretend relationship?
