Level me up
Gamer Boy
Lauren Helms 
June 05th 2017

 

The last thing Morgan Lawson is looking for when attending Comic-Con is love. But even prior to exchanging first words, Morgan is drawn to Dex, a drop-dead sexy gamer boy who lives and breathes video games. Before she realizes it, Morgan finds herself caught up in all things Dex.

Dex Roberts knows from the moment he first sees Morgan, he wants more. He falls hard and fast but isn’t surprised when his job as a professional video gamer takes a toll on their relationship.

Once Morgan decides what truly makes her happy, there’s no time to waste. But without warning, life threatens to destroy what both Morgan and Dex want most… each other.

 

 

Level Me Up (Gamer Boy #1) by Lauren Helms was an enjoyable read. It was my first book by this author and I enjoyed the realistic approach in this romance. The story really could happen like this (well maybe except one plot string towards the end). I have visited several convention myself (unfortunately not this one yet) so I know how it feels and I liked the way the author transferred that feeling to the reader.

Unfortunately what was good for one side of the plot was also slightly negative for another. The realistic approach also felt a little shallow when it came to the depth of the characters and more important it made the pace of the story feel slow.

And towards the end it was as if the author noticed that the story needed a pinnacle so she created one … that while it actually might be possible still felt too far away from the realistic way the story was written until then.

Also the story somehow focused on to many of the characters at once. At times I was unsure if it was to introduce the other characters for further books or a planning of finishing their story in addition to the story of the leads in this book.

But still I enjoyed the story in total, also because it was the first one I read that was set in that specific environment. And while my edition still contained some mistakes I am pretty sure that the final version will be one the readers will enjoy.
