Welcome to Undercurrents of Romance with host Tracey Devlyn!

In Episode 10 of Undercurrents of Romance, Tracey Devlyn sits down with wife and husband writing team Emily Wibberley and Austin Siegemund-Broka to discuss their new romantic comedy BOOK BOYFRIEND.

After yet another disastrous relationship, Jennifer Worth seeks refuge in an immersive reader experience for her favorite romantasy series, Elytheum Courts. It’s everything she’s dreamed of—until her work nemesis, Scott Daniels, unexpectedly arrives, making her question everything she thought she knew about him.

Packed with beloved tropes and sparkling chemistry, BOOK BOYFRIEND is a must-read romcom that will delight your inner romantasy fan.

“Glorious love letter to readers of romantasy.” ~ Jodi Picoult, #1 New York Times bestselling author
