5/5⭐️ 3.5/5 🌶️ Ahhhhhhh!!! The perfect intro to fall and all the delicious things that come with it!!! I’m serious, the way this book is written you can feel and smell the surroundings!! Now.. Lyra is an auto buy for me.. her writing, character development, and unique story lines never disappoint and this is no exception to that. Autumn and Alexander have such a good story!! They are so good together and the spice is spicing!! This book is packed with all the amazing fall everything!! There’s haunted houses, pumpkin patches, a ball, fairy godwitches, and more!!! Be ready to fall in love with Cozy Creek, and everyone in it!! It’s no secret that I love love love The Wife Situation, I can NOT wait for The Friend Situation and this book had all the best teasers for it AND now there’s The Hookup Situation!! I never want it to end!!

I enjoyed Autumn and Zane so much. This was such a great read and perfect for getting ready for fall! These two were perfect for each other and watching them get their HEA was all the feels and the spice was there as well.

3.5 stars I thought this was such a fun read, especially the fall/Halloween vibes! I loved how everything in the town involved fall- including the town name, activities, and Autumn's own name. It even included some themes of ghosts, haunted houses, and magical energies/love prophecy ideas. I had a hard time getting into the book, it felt like the first couple of chapters were just dragging on. It was a lot of buildup, and I was waiting for Zane and Autumn to get together. I would say it finally picked up around 40% of the book, and I enjoyed reading the love story between Zane and Autumn. It was very insta-lovey, and I don't know why one of the tropes was fake dating cause as soon as they started fake dating, everyone could tell they were already in love. I felt the book was a little farfetched with the love prophecy, and I had to suspend my disbelief that this was all predicted. Overall, I liked this book especially the fall vibes, the side characters, and the relationship between Autumn and Zane- I just didn't love the beginning or the magical vibes and probably wouldn't read it again unless I am in a Halloween mood in October!

"This book was exceptional. The characters, particularly Autumn, Zane, and Harper, were wonderfully developed and truly resonated with me. The story captured the essence of the fall season and kept me engaged from start to finish. I would highly recommend this book to anyone seeking a captivating and immersive read."

🍁𝐆𝐫𝐮𝐦𝐩𝐲 𝐒𝐮𝐧𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐞 ☕️𝐁𝐫𝐨𝐤𝐞𝐧𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐁𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐞 🍁𝐅𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 ☕️𝐒𝐦𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐓𝐨𝐰𝐧 🍁𝐂𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐚 𝐕𝐢𝐛𝐞𝐬 ♡︎ This story was incredibly adorable. I loved the cozy fall vibes and felt like I could almost smell the pumpkin bread and coffee. It was the type of book that transports you into the moment. ♥︎ Autumn always had recurring dreams of a handsome mysterious man, which always led her to question whether he was real. As fate would have it, he actually was, and to her surprise, he turned out to be the new reclusive billionaire in town, Zane Alexander. While she expected fireworks, what she encountered was a grumpy man who despised her coffee. Soon enough, they found themselves tangled in a complicated fake relationship that only highlighted their intense mutual attraction. ♥︎ I adored the connection between Autumn and Zane, and oh my, they shared some passionate moments that left me fanning my face. It got very hot and heavy, but this book never lost its cute small-town charm. ♡︎ Overall, if you're looking for a magical fall read, this one is perfect for you. There were some Cinderella vibes that I'm sure readers will enjoy.

The Fall I Want will make you believe in love again. It was a warm hug on a blustery day. It was a PSL in book form. It was a cozy sweater, a roaring fire and a good book all in one. Preferably this book. The way I fell almost immediately for this story (no pun intended) shocked even myself. I swear I don’t think I’ve ever connected with a book so quickly. Maybe it was that I could relate to Autumn the FMC in so many ways. I loved the very accurate depictions of barista life (yes , I’m speaking from personal experience) and the very relatable situation of feeling untethered in life when you expected to be further along by a certain age that you alone gave yourself. Whatever the case I really connected with Autumn and how her heart had been betrayed and hurt. Thankfully she had some great besties to help support her and they definitely brought the fun. This book had the best meet cute with the way Autumn and Zane meet. It was magical perfection. There were also elements of spooky season without being scary, tons of romantic magic and I adored the way fate works throughout the entire story. Zane was book boyfriend gold. He was at first a bit grumpy, but definitely hot and sweet with a lot of spice and his heart was so huge. You couldn’t help but fall for him. Being someone who is still actively grieving the loss of a parent I also really understood some of the things his character talks about going through and it hit me hard. At times I cried while reading this story, but I smiled so much more because this love story was everything. I can’t speak highly enough of this book. The HEA is so beautiful and my heart is so happy. I’m telling all my friends about this one and I will be re-reading it soon with a PSL in hand the moment the season changes over. You need this book. Don’t hesitate just do it. You will not be sorry.
