Online Author Talk | Casey McQuiston : Returning to Romance Through Food and Flirty Fun

August 20, 2025 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Virtual Event

Bring an appetite for humor and  drama as we discuss New York Times bestselling author Casey McQuiston‘s latest romantic comedy, The Pairing.
When two bisexual exes accidentally book the same European food and wine tour, they challenge each other to a hookup competition to prove they’re over each other—except they’re definitely not.
Theo and Kit have been a lot of things: childhood best friends, crushes, in love, and now estranged exes. After a brutal breakup on the transatlantic flight to their dream European food and wine tour, they exited each other’s lives once and for all. All that remains is the unused voucher for the European tour that never happened, good for 48 months after its original date and about to expire.
Four years later, it seems like a great idea to finally take the trip. Solo. Separately. It’s not until they board the tour bus that they discover they’ve both accidentally had the exact same idea.
