Against the Rules (Gamer Girls, #2)

by Laura Heffernan

Risk Everything . . .

Holly has taken herself out of the dating game since breaking up with her cheating, thieving ex. She barely notices Marc, who comes into the game store every week, hoping to get her attention. Her friends insist it’s time to take on a new role, to leave Quiet Holly behind and embrace her inner flirt. And on paper, Marc’s great: cute, funny, and a hardcore gamer just like Holly is.

Then there’s Nathan. He’s everything twenty-eight-year-old Holly wants...except he’s also her friend’s father. Absolutely off-limits. But as she and Nathan playtest a new legacy game together, they’re growing closer. The game is complex and intriguing, and there’s no way to know how choices will pan out. What seems like a good idea could lead to disaster...or sweet victory. But in gaming, as in love, sometimes you have to roll the dice and take your chance . . .

Sometimes Rules Gotta Be Broken. In this continuation of the Gamer Girls trilogy, Heffernan brings an interesting board game concept to the story even as the game itself takes a bit more of a backseat as a driver of the overall story. Instead, the game of love takes a much more central focus in this story, and this particular game is truly excellent. Very much recommended, and I can't wait to read Book 3!
