Romantasyland

A romantasy reader accidentally enters a fantasy world, only to realize that some tropes are better in fiction, in this satirical, hijinks-filled meta-romantasy. Everything in Eve Lockwood’s life is grey—and not in a fun, morally ambiguous kind of way. No matter how much soggy takeout she orders or how many Friends re-runs she binges, the only place she can truly escape is between the pages of her beloved romantasy novels. So, when an advertisement for a romantasy-lovers retreat crosses her path, Eve jumps at the chance to immerse herself in her favorite genre—until she unknowingly stumbles through a portal during a retreat activity and finds herself thrust into a real-life fantasy world. Just like her beloved books, everyone she encounters is otherworldly attractive, from the brooding prince to his regal aunt, and even the mysterious spirit haunting her dreams. Unfortunately, the fantasy ends there. Despite being spectacularly unqualified for the position, Eve has been declared The Chosen OneTM, and is promptly saddled with a life-and-death mission to save the kingdom from a centuries-old curse. Apparently, this job comes with zero training and excellent odds of death. Eve quickly realizes that reading countless fantasy novels is no match for living one, not when she can barely swing a sword to save her life. What’s worse, her fae prince love interest seems perfectly content staying in the enemies stage of their relationship arc. It’ll take everything in her to navigate court politics and battle ancient forces to return home, but everything will work out. After all, main characters can’t die… right? Romantasyland is a funny, steamy, and wickedly self-aware romp for anyone who knows exactly how the story goes—and loves to fall for it anyway.
