Amy is a gaming influencer, but also finds time to enjoy video games for herself. One night she makes a new gaming friend, and it makes her feel a little jealous of her best friend Sam who managed to find a gaming partner.

Sam’s fiancé enlists Amy to help advertise his new mobile game coming out (you know, the way it was described, I wanted to play the thing 🤣). The kicker, she has to live stream with another influencer to showcase the social aspect of the game.

We as the readers know who they are to each other right away, but that’s something they don’t discover for themselves until near the end of the book. Their relationship is quick and explosive, and I think I enjoyed their chemistry more than Sam and Asher’s. It’s also a bit longer than Pro Gamer’s Aim, which I appreciated. I wonder if there is going to be more in this series!
