What to expect
'Thank you, Emily Wibberley and Austin Siegemund-Broka, for this glorious love letter to readers of romantasy' - Jodi Picoult, bestselling author of Wish You Were Here
Is enemies-to-lovers romance only for books, or can Jennifer and Scott bring that fantasy to life?
Jennifer Worth works in Publishing, but lives to escape into the world of her favourite romantasy series, Elytheum Courts, where the romance is swoony and the men are brave, chivalrous . . . and winged. Newly single and craving connection, she travels to an immersive fan experience, only to see the last face she expected: Scott Daniels, her work nemesis.
Except the Scott she encounters there, in his second hand cosplay outfit, is . . . different. Swaggering, flirtatious, confident. Unlucky in romance himself, Scott is determined to remake himself into the perfect book boyfriend.
Jennifer has no interest in helping the man who vexes her every workday and dismisses her fictional fantasies, but as the convention activities force the unlikely pair together, they’re surprised to discover magic like none Jennifer has ever read about.
Devoted fangirl meets hesitant fanboy in this swoony contemporary love letter to readers who love fantasy worlds. From Emily Wibberley and Austin Siegmund-Broka, the authors of Do I Know You? and The Breakup Tour.
Critics Review

This book is for those who’ve dreamed about dating a man with wings or squealed silently when a fae warrior removed his bracers to reveal his forearms — yes, I’m talking about you — the fangirls and fanguys who know that fantasy isn’t just an escape, but a reminder that we can be the main characters in our real lives, too. Thank you, Emily Wibberley and Austin Siegemund-Broka, for this glorious love letter to readers of romantasy.

Absolutely sparkling! With delicious friction and deft use of our most cherished tropes, Book Boyfriend is a love letter to the swooning, hopeful romance reader hearts out there, who are worthy not just of the lowest bar, but of the highest, most magical love story imaginable.

Book Boyfriend is a delightful story, an ode to any book lover who has fallen hard for fictional characters and worlds. Charmingly funny, sensually sexy, and full of absolute joy, this magical blend of The Hating Game meets The Princess Bride will enchant and immerse you, reminding you to be the hero of your own story.

Resentment drips off of narrator Helen Laser’s tongue in this enemies-to-lovers slow-burn romance set at an Elytheum Courts fan-fiction conference. Jennifer Worth uses the conference to escape a bad breakup only to discover that her co-worker/archnemesis Scott Daniels is an attendee. As Jennifer and Scott decide to pursue a romance, Laser turns up the steam and shows both their vulnerabilities.
