I love the secondary characters in this book. And he’s everything Alden has never realized he needs.ĥ–Who are the people your main characters turn to when they need help? He’s handsome in a boy-next-door way, but he’s also funny, helpful, kind, principled, spontaneous, and resourceful. And he’s good at driving Conrad up a tree! He’s driven, determined, complicated, smart, stubborn, and also deeply loyal, moral, and good in a crisis. Also, they confront everything from car trouble to hotel rooms with only one bed! Along the way, they discover the true depth of their feelings for each other. This is my gamer road trip rivals to lovers story about two tabletop gaming frenemies forced to take a cross-country road trip together to a huge convention. Also, my library had it in kindle.1–What’s the name of your latest release? If it interests you, don't let 3 stars slow you down. But the worst is an edit fail: basing a scene on three little words not yet said, when hey, they had been, in the previous chapter. I knew they'd avoid thinking about the tournament conflict, but it's still a dorky plot device. This was contrived plot device nonsense that made the adults seem super-careless. You put money on a card you can add money to. What really ground my gears were the stupid actions of adults before this trip, that endangered these boys, and that could've left them potentially stranded. I would have liked this pair sooner than I did if there was less unfounded hate being thought and acted on, before they're forced to come to understand each other. It's something this author does and I knew that, but it's newly low-grade annoying every time. Those things are offset by the slow pace due to each character detailing reactions and thoughts all the time.
I appreciated the work put into making this fictitious game seem reasonable to anyone familiar with Magic: the Gathering, which is what it reminded me of. I finished reading this frenemies to lovers romance, and I enjoyed it.
