Young Adult | Coming of Age

A new romantic comedy from the bestselling author of The Kissing Booth, about an avid fangirl who finds herself working on the set of her favorite fantasy show—but will she fall for the dreamy prince from the screen in real life?

Hardcore fangirl Anissa is coming out of her shell at last. She has finally found friends who like fanfic and tabletop role-playing games as much as she does, and she somehow landed an internship on the set of her favorite TV show, Of Wrath and Rune. Things couldn’t be going better . . .

That is, until she meets Callum, the hot new actor on OWAR. Anissa gets so starstruck seeing her favorite fantasy character in real life that Callum writes her off as an obsessive fangirl . . . and working together is about to be very awkward. So much for meet your heroes—now he’s her worst enemy.

Battling imposter syndrome in her newfound friendships, her rivalry-turned-maybe-something-more with Callum, and the occasional fictional orc, the biggest plot twist this season might just be that feeling when fandom meets reality.
