But every potential suitor seems to have one flaw in common: They can't hold a candle to her book boyfriend, Ryke. The protagonist of her favorite fantasy romance series (and, notably, a sexy merman), Ryke is a symbol for the life Joonie craves and the kind of relationship she deserves. So with a book always in her back pocket, why would she ever settle for less?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut when Joonie learns that Ryke's character is based on someone the author knows in real life, she embarks on an epic quest to track him down, meet him in person, and determine once and for all if soulmates really do exist. Unfortunately, her brother's annoying best friend who doesn't believe in love or happy endings insists on hitching a ride. And like any great hero's journey, it doesn't take long for the trials and tribulations to begin. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs Joonie fights her way toward her love interest, using the skills she acquired through reading, she'll learn an important lesson: You can pursue a fantasy, but you can't always write your own plot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs unhinged as it is brilliant, \u003cem\u003eFemale Fantasy\u003c\/em\u003e is both a self-aware dive into the concept of genre and a wild, steamy romp.
