Spicy Pickle by J.J. Knight

First, she tampered with my pickle. Then, she got us both kicked off a cooking show. Now, we’re fake engaged. Sit back, friends, this is one crazy tale of treachery and pickle juice.

Anthony: All right. Here’s how it went.
My pickle went viral. Millions saw it. Thousands ate it. Hold up, pervs. Let me backtrack.
I invented a very spicy pickle made with ghost peppers. One bite and you’ll swear someone stuffed a hot coal in your mouth. It’s extremely popular in pranks. I’m in the middle of filming with a prominent cooking show when in walks Little Miss Perfect Pants from a rival deli to insist she has improvements for my pickle. It all goes downhill from there.

Magnolia: Read the reviews and weep, Anthony Pickle. I got the best of you on reality TV. You got me back with a very public kiss. After your new deli poached on my territory, I swore to hate you. But every time those smoky eyes meet mine, I melt a little. Cheesy, right? By the time you’ve kissed me, I already know I’m in deep. But then you propose? How am I supposed to keep faking it when every swoon is real?

Spicy Pickle is a romantic comedy about a culinary feud, potent pickle juice, and the most not-fake fake love story in the history of reality TV.
