Ruth has known Theo for six years, long enough to trust his kindness—and long enough for one lunch invitation to mean more than friendship.
Ruth knows what she wants: marriage, a shared life, and no children. She will not bargain away that future or ask someone to promise a life he has not chosen for himself.
Theo cares for Ruth, but whenever the subject of children comes up, he has always offered the same easy answer: someday. He is beginning to realize that "someday" may be less a plan than a way to avoid disappointing the people who expect a certain future of him.
As autumn settles over Harvest Square and the pumpkin farm winds down for the season, the friends must decide whether their growing love can hold an honest difference. Ruth cannot make Theo’s choice for him. Theo cannot choose a childfree life simply to keep her. And neither can build a lasting relationship on a promise made out of fear.
Warm, thoughtful, and gently funny, Pumpkin Patch & Promises is a slow-burn, friends-to-lovers small-town romance about honest choices, mutual respect, and finding love in a life that truly fits.
