OFF HER GAME (The Game Lords Book 1) by Zoe Forward is the first book in a new romantic suspense series set in the unique world of on-line gaming. The suspense plot was very intriguing and keeps the pages turning. The romance has a gamer nerd turned hot hunk game creator, rich CEO still being a nerd in personal situations in a fake relationship with a feisty, sexy female gamer, game creator.
Tori Duarte is ranked as one of the top female gamers in the country. She attended MIT, she can program and code and she has a video game she is trying to sell. She also has a big chip on her shoulder because of the gender bias in the gaming world. When she needs help with money, she gets involved in a secretive on-line video gambling ring called the Stadium. The game is rigged and she just keeps getting further and further in debt.
CEO Noah Harrison is co-owner of a major gaming company. He is set up on a chance meeting with Tori. He lost his brother to the Stadium and is now helping with an FBI sting. He wants Tori’s help to stop them from killing more people and bring them to justice. They will pretend to date to cover for the FBI.
Tori and Noah play at dating, but with the sparks flying between them, could this lead to more? As they are caught up with this dangerous cyber-criminal, the stakes continue to rise. Can Tori get out of the Stadium to have a real relationship?
Tori and Noah were an interesting pairing. The shy CEO who is inept with women, but can sure turn it on and take control during sex with the snarky, but insecure gamer girl. When they were together it was really hot, but I felt the author pulled them apart too frequently. There was too much insecurity coming from such a supposedly smart and talented heroine. The sex scenes were explicit, but not over the top. All of the secondary characters were well fleshed out and I am looking forward to seeing how the author continues on with their stories, also. I did like the twist during a very well written suspense plot when the heroine faced the kingpin without the hero at her side. Overall, I loved the suspense plot and that the Stadium plot will arc over future books with this book having a complete HEA romance.
I can recommend this first book in this new series and I am looking forward to reading more.
