Synopsis:
First, she tampered with my pickle.
Then, she got us both kicked off a cooking show.
Now, we're fake engaged.
Sit back, friends, this is one crazy tale of treachery and pickle juice.
Anthony:
All right. Here's how it went.
My pickle went viral. Millions saw it. Thousands ate it.
Hold up, pervs. Let me backtrack.
I invented a very spicy pickle made with ghost peppers. One bite and you'll swear someone stuffed a hot coal in your mouth. It's extremely popular in pranks.
I'm in the middle of filming with a prominent cooking show when in walks Miss Perfect Pants from a rival deli to insist she has improvements for my pickle.
It all goes downhill from there.
Magnolia:
Read the reviews and weep, Anthony Pickle.
I got the best of you on reality TV.
You got me back with a very public kiss.
After your new deli poached on my territory, I swore to hate you. But every time those smoky eyes meet mine, I melt a little.
Cheesy, right?
By the time you've kissed me, I already know I'm in deep.
But then you propose?
How am I supposed to keep faking it when every swoon is real?
-----

Excerpt
She glances up when I enter the room that adjoins our two hotel suites. I could kiss our cooking tour publicist for this arrangement.
"Hey!" she says. "You got fancy sleepwear from the designers, too."
I sit in the chair next to her. "You got some?"
"You bet I did. It was mixed in with all the fancy dresses for the talk shows. But I won't be caught dead in it."
Now she has my interest. "What is it?"
She runs her fingers down the room service menu. "Wouldn't you like to know?"
Yes. Yes, I would.
