"Two men impulsively pose as a couple to compete in an Amazing Race-type reality show contest just minutes after meeting at an airport TGI Fridays, and their run-in with the very real feelings that start to simmer between them"--

Popular bookstagrammer Chip Pons's gay rom-com about two men who impulsively pose as a couple to compete in a reality show contest just minutes after meeting at an airport, and their run-in with the very real feelings that start to simmer between them.

Catching flights... & feelings... has never been more complicated.

Asher Bennett thought his relationship was just fine. Until he's unceremoniously dumped at the Boston airport ahead of the world-wide travel competition reality show, The Epic Trek. Armed with only a ticket and righteous indignation, Asher finds the closest solace he can—a mimosa and mozzarella sticks combo at an airport TGI Fridays. Still, Asher is determined to find a new partner and luckily, right in front of him is a smooth-talking airline pilot ready for takeoff.

Theo Fernandez has been grounded. He's the only pilot that has never taken a vacation and the edict has been passed down—prove you're prioritising a work-life balance or say goodbye to your wings. As he struggles to bask in his new downtime, without reconnecting with his family, he stumbles upon the perfect opportunity. The handsome guy who "stole" his mozzarella sticks at his favourite terminal eatery has a sudden opening for a partner... on a nationally televised reality show.

Theo and Asher buckle up to fake date for the cameras, but as they do, the undercurrents of attraction make them wonder if their on-screen chemistry hints at something bigger. Do they have the courage to leave behind their baggage, and wing it together for another chance at love?

About the Author

Chip Pons grew up in a small lake town in Northern Michigan before eventually traveling the world as a photojournalist in the US Air Force, where he met and worked alongside his dream of a husband and better half. He's spent his entire life swooning over the love stories filling up his shelves until one day, he was brave-or delusional-enough to write his own. He currently lives in the heart of Washington, DC. and when he is not writing or chasing his pup, Margot, around, he can be found daydreaming of untold happily ever afters or on Bookstagram shouting about the books he loves. And snacking, like, all the time.
