So this cute little story was written from a prompt given in a group. Olley is a new-to-me author and quite clearly English and I LOVED it. Such a sweet little romance between two online friends. Max and Stefan thought the other was Maxine and Stephanie so it was a shock to both that the other was a male. Cute, a little dirty, and so much fun!

I adored how the relationship developed between these gamer boys. From friends to close friends to boyfriends to happily ever after. It may have been a novella but there was so much heart packed into this delightful story.

“𝐈 𝐠𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐟𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐛𝐞 𝐚𝐟𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐦𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐞.”

A few of the English terms confused me but I googled them and learned some things. I liked the friend group a lot and really appreciated how light and fluffy this story was. It was a perfect afternoon treat with a sweet HEA.
