Emmeline Bell always dreamed of writing her own love story – but lately, even turning a page feels impossible.

Struggling with her mental health, Emmy has lost her words and her confidence. Then she inherits a crumbling secondhand bookshop from a mysterious old friend and discovers something unexpected: magic is real. And so is Lord Jonathan Dalgliesh, a cursed Tudor nobleman who appears from the pages of an ancient book seeking her help.

As danger creeps from fiction into reality, Emmy must find the courage to trust herself again – and help Jonathan break the curse before time runs out.

A cosy, witchy, slow-burn, plus-size, time-travel romance, perfect for fans of ‘The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches‘ and ‘A Highlander for Hannah’.

"‘The Book Boyfriend‘ contains romantic stories, a magical bookshop, a time-displaced stranger, and a heroine finding her own voice." - Popsugar
