John devoted a huge chunk of his life to trying to be a professional gamer: a pursuit that was mocked by many, including his own parents. Now, in his 30s, with a wasted decade behind him, he’s starting to realize that maybe the critics were right to mock him. He’s jobless, has no degree, and he’s single…but there is a girl.

John has played with Billie Rae online a few times. She’s sweet, funny, and the two play well together…until they discover that they live in the same city. Then, Billie Rae gets uncomfortable and ghosts John. At least that’s how it seems—and then a wealthy entrepreneur reaches out to John; he wants John on his new pro gaming team. It’s a shocking dream come true for John—and it’s an even bigger shock when he moves into the team house and meets his new teammates.

One is a beautiful, petite E-Girl. She’s sweet, funny, talented…and it turns out, John already knows her; he’s played with her many times before. His new teammate is Billie Rae. And John doesn’t know it just yet, but he might just know Billie Rae even better than he realized.
