The Fall Bucket List

At eighteen, they made an autumn bucket list. Seventeen years later, they have one day to finish it.

Tessa Hargrove has a suitcase to pack, a temporary job waiting in Vermont, and every intention of leaving her mother’s spare room behind. Then she finds the fall bucket list she wrote with her high school sweetheart containing five unchecked boxes for a fall that never happened.

Caleb Prescott remembers the list. He also happens to be at the Maplewood Fall Festival, looking unfairly good-looking. He suggests that they start with item one, the pumpkin. One afternoon together sounds harmless enough. But between a disastrous jack-o-lantern and the last hay ride, Tessa is laughing with the man she once loved—and running out of excuses to let go of his hand.

Tomorrow, she leaves again. Distance helped end their relationship the first time, and she barely knows where she'll be in December. Can she make room for a second chance before she has the rest of her life figured out?

A sweet, cozy no-spice autumn romance about starting over with someone you never forgot.
