The Autumn Affair

A heated rivals-to-roommates-to-lovers forced-proximity romance set in the lead up to Galway's annual Halloween parade, from the author of TikTok sensation Morbidly Yours.

Will these rivals find romance before the last leaf falls?

Saoirse Delaney is done fooling around. Struggling to save her floundering flower shop, she makes a decision: If she can't grow her business creatively in the next six months, she'll sell and go back to her teaching degree.

Gabe Maguire is Galway's premier event designer, and he makes sure everyone knows it. But after a blow to his ego following a failed business venture, he's offered a contract to design displays all over Galway for the Halloween parade. And it's the perfect opportunity to prove he's still the best.

There's only one problem: Saoirse's been offered the position too…and she despises Gabe. Infuriated by the thought of working together, they're offered a deal: Pair up until Halloween, and whoever curates the best parade float will win the year-long contract. But when Gabe is forced to move into Saoirse's home, the fire between them explodes into something new. Can their newfound chemistry mend their competitive spirits or will it destroy everything they've worked for?
