Bittersweet Halloween

Book excerpt: Meet Will and Florence. He’s freshly divorced and in denial. She’s twice-burnt and prickly. They’re a terrible idea. They know this. But every time their eyes meet, their clothes come off. Experience their unique, hilarious, and heart-wrenching love story in the four episodes of Text Me, Cupid: a (slightly dirty) love story for 21st century adults. In Episode 3: Bittersweet Halloween, Will comes back to town after four months away, and all he wants is Florence. Florence is almost ready for a relationship. Sort of. Kind of. Maybe? But she’s got issues. Florence Gunn: Tomorrow? Will Ornot: Tomorrow. Excited? Florence Gunn: Maybe. Will Ornot: You’re such a... Admit you’re excited. Florence Gunn: I said, maybe. Will Ornot: Tell me you missed me. Florence Gunn: How could I miss you? We texted every single day. Will Ornot: not every single day Florence Gunn: Every. Single. Day. Will Ornot: Florence? Florence Gunn: Will? Will Ornot: Would it kill you to admit that a) this is a relationship and b) you missed me and c) you’re excited that I’m coming home tomorrow? Florence Gunn: Suppose it does? Is that a risk you’re willing to take? Will Ornot: WTF? Florence Gunn: Suppose it does kill me to admit that a) this is a relationship and b) I missed you and c) I’m excited that you’re coming home tomorrow? Is that a risk you’re willing to take? Will Ornot: :) Will Ornot: I saw what you did there.
