Game On

By: Seressia Glass

Narrated by: Keylor Leigh

When an unexpected Player Two enters her life, a gamer must decide if their relationship is worth leveling up in this new romance from the author of The Love Con.

Samara Reynolds has built a large following as a gamer under an anonymous screen name, and uses her skills as a DEIA consultant to advocate for equal representation in video games. When she posted a video critiquing the popular game Legendsfall, she knew she’d get a reaction from her fans, but the video leads to hundreds of female gamers critiquing the game and its company, Artemis Games. The only thing more unexpected than starting an online movement is getting a job offer from the handsome CEO of Artemis.

Aron Galanis has been on a mission to get his company certified to create gaming content for people with disabilities. When he sees Artemis trending online for all the wrong reasons, he’s determined to right his wrongs and offers the originator a mea culpa, as well as a job offer to overhaul the character options in Legendsfall.

Working together turns Aron and Samara from adversaries into allies, allies into friends, and after that—something more. But once their relationship goes public, will Aron and Samara be able to weather the storm and fight for their happy ending, or is it game over?

Black FMC gamer, yes please!

This was a really cute story. I read book one but I think I preferred this one but I will admit it has everything to do with being seen as a nuerospicy brain, and being an actual Black gamer.

I was kicking my feet so much seeing a Black female gamer because thinking about it, I’ve rarely seen that in ANYTHING.

I thought the romance was a little light sometimes, or maybe the politics overshadowed the romance but I understand why because I grew up a Black female gamer. It’s hard in these streets.

It felt weird how the MMC was so autistic coded but he never acknowledged that he was. Literally everything about him was neurodivergent but it was his brother he was comfortable naming it.

I loved the the setup of him wanting to improve his game’s launch by hiring her. It did lag a little toward the end but overall I loved this and wish more existed like it!

Every Gamer Girl's Dream

Acceptance, support, reassurance, ability to remain independent...what's not to love with this one. Also, who's gonna tell Aaron he's probably tistic too

Loved it!

The narrator was fabulous. I loved Aaron and Sam. Great humor and snark without being over the top. I’m wondering how I can get a blanket fort!

Very cute and unique storyline!

Loved the video game storyline! Loved the MMC was not your typical MMC! Need a Sequel ASAP!!

A true Love story!!

this book made me believe in love again. I could NOT put it down. I loved the characters and their personalities and the development the man went through. a very Darcy-like pivot in his behavior after saying the dumbest thing he could have. I was rooting for them both the whole time. the narrator was incredible. I WILL absolutely be purchasing books from this author again!!
