Devoted fangirl meets hesitant fanboy in this swoony contemporary love letter to readers who love fantasy worlds, from the beloved authors of The Breakup Tour. Jennifer Worth lives to escape into the world of her favorite 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 celebrating all things Elytheum, only to see the last face she expected—Scott Daniels, her work nemesis, whose disinterest in Jennifer's favorite series and standoffishness have made their publishing jobs feel like a feuding fae court. Except, the Scott she encounters there, in his secondhand cosplay outfit, is…different. Swaggering, flirtatious, confident. Unlucky in romance himself, Jennifer discovers, and inspired by Jennifer's love for the swoonworthy men of Elytheum, 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 immersive convention activities force Jennifer and Scott together, they’re surprised to discover magic like none Jennifer has ever read about. But is enemies-to-lovers romance only for books, or can Jennifer and Scott bring that fantasy to life?
