BOOK BOYFRIEND

Austin Siegemund-Broka Emily Wibberley

Jennifer Worth lives to escape into the world of her favorite romantasy series Elytheum Courts. But while her friends understand her obsession, her ex, Scott, did not. Newly single and craving connection, Jennifer travels to an immersive fan experience celebrating all things Elytheum, only to see the last face she expected. Jennifer doesn't know why Scott has ventured into this recreation of the fantasy in which he never showed much interest. She does know the Scott she encounters there, in his secondhand cosplay outfit, is... different. As the immersive convention activities force Jennifer and Scott to relive where their relationship went wrong, they're surprised to rediscover where things went magically right. But second-chance romance is only for books, or can Jennifer and Scott bring that fantasy to life? Emily Wibberley and Austin Siegemund-Broka live in Los Angeles, where they continue to take daily inspiration from their own love story.
