Fiction. Romance. HTML:This year's science fiction/gaming convention just got interesting! Sam has been hiding behind a male persona for long enough. This is her chance to meet Joel, her favorite online gaming buddy. But someone else has set her sights on Joel, and Sam has to pull out all the stops to prove to Joel that geek love can turn into something more!
When Joel goes to a science fiction/gaming convention, he never expects to meet the woman of his dreams. But when he finds out a gaming buddy he's never met is there, that's exactly what happens.
Sam got tried of being a woman in the gaming communities, so she adopted a male persona to play—only now she has to make that lie up to her best friend Joel, who she's spent many a night chatting with online. She doesn't think anything that happens onscreen could be real but things sure heat up when she meets the man she considers a buddy.
Amidst science fiction regulars and popular shows and movie fans, Sam and Joel try to get to know each other beyond their gaming names and have a wild night together.
When another online woman sets her sights on Joel and is willing to do anything to get him, Sam is caught in the crossfire. Will she ever be able to reconcile herself to geek love becoming real?

I wanted to like this. I did. But in the end I don't really understand why I finished it. The premise was a good one and I think there would've been a lot of interesting ways to go about it. But. First what bothered me was that it was a gamer romance but not really from a gamer perspective. I'm not sure if it tried to be, but there was just too much explanation on things. This is something that bothers me actually, when there's too much explanation about the culture. I prefer to figure it out from the context, like going to a foreign country. "Show, don't tell" works for me.

In addition, it would be very hard for me to believe that someone who spends so much time in a game as Sam does would not consider her game friends real friends. And I also don't really believe that she wouldn't have told someone that important that she's a woman. Or that it wouldn't have come up. Well, that I could be ok with, but not the fact that she doesn't consider online friends real friends. And then there was the whole crazy woman plot that I just thought was completely unnecessary.

I liked the idea, but the execution could've been better. ( )
