Falling on Air

She told thirty thousand listeners she had a boyfriend. There's just one problem: he doesn't exist.

Maggie Quinn can talk about almost anything on live radio. Love? Dating? Other people's embarrassing secrets? Absolutely.

Her own love life is another story.

So when a joke about having a boyfriend slips out during her morning show-and Applewick, Vermont, refuses to let it go-Maggie needs a man willing to play along before the lie costs her more than a little dignity.

Unfortunately, the only man who offers is Eli Bennett.

Her former high-school almost-something.
The man she hasn't truly forgiven in ten years.
And the handsome single dad who still knows her far too well.

Eli has reasons of his own for saying yes. His family's cider orchard needs the publicity, and five weeks of pretending to date Applewick's favorite radio host could be exactly what the business needs.

The rules are simple: survive the Autumn Couple Challenge, smile for the listeners, and absolutely do not make any of it real.

Then come the pumpkin patch, apple-picking disaster, baking competition, haunted corn maze, bonfire nights, and one kiss that definitely wasn't part of the agreement.

Soon the whole town is rooting for them.

Eli's eight-year-old daughter is getting attached.

And Eli?

He stopped pretending before Maggie even realized the rules had changed.

Now Maggie has a bigger problem than the lie she told on air. Because falling for Eli means facing what really happened between them ten years ago-and deciding whether she's finally brave enough to tell the truth when her career, her heart, and the family she never expected to want are all listening.

Falling on Air is a sweet, closed-door small-town romantic comedy featuring fake dating, a devoted single dad, second chances, he-falls-first romance, small-town gossip, forced public dates, cozy Vermont fall vibes, and plenty of happily-ever-after feels.
