I accidentally summoned a god during community theater rehearsal.

Now there's a six-foot-five autumn deity living in my grandmother's shop, and Lord Mabon; ancient, lonely, with a literal pumpkin for a head has been forgotten for 259 years. He's fading. Desperate to be remembered. And somehow convinced that I'm the answer to centuries of loneliness.

He doesn't understand modern dating. His courting attempts are spectacular failures. He conjures forests in my bedroom, materializes thrones in inconvenient places, and gets genuinely offended by inflatable yard decorations.

But beneath that pumpkin glamour is the most beautiful man I've ever white-gold hair, eyes like shifting autumn light, and a vulnerability that breaks my heart. He's teaching me magic I didn't know I had. Making me believe in wonder again. Looking at me like I'm his entire world.

And he's asking me to be his immortal consort. Forever.

The catch? he leaves at midnight on Halloween. When the clock strikes, he returns to the realm between realms alone, fading, forgotten again.

Unless I'm brave enough to choose him.

Unless I'm willing to risk everything for a love that transcends seasons and mortality and all the safe choices I've been making since my ex broke me.

The problem is, I'm already in love with him.

And I don't know how to let him go.

Fixing the Grumpy Pumpkin King is a light gothic MM fantasy romance featuring an anxious warlock discovering his power, a desperately lonely deity who counts every year he's been forgotten, accidental supernatural roommates, courting disasters, autumn magic that makes leaves rain during sex, a best friend who threatens to fight gods, and a happily ever after that feels earned. Perfect for fans of grumpy/sunshine dynamics, cozy paranormal romance with emotional depth, and found family feels with a side of "He's hung like a horse!"
