Level Up

A Geek Girl Rom Com

De: Cathy Yardley

Narrado por: Serena St. Clair, Dirk Slade

Geeky introvert Tessa Rodriguez will do whatever it takes to get promoted to video game engineer - including create a fandom-based video game in just three weeks. The only problem is, she can't do it alone. Now, she needs to strong-arm, cajole, and otherwise socialize with her video game coworkers, especially her roommate, Adam, who's always been strictly business with her. The more they work together, though, the closer they get....

Adam London has always thought of his roomie Tessa as "one of the guys" until he agreed to help her with this crazy project. Now, he's thinking of her all the time...and certainly as something more than just a roommate! But his last girlfriend broke up with him to follow her ambitions, and he knows that Tessa is obsessed with getting ahead in the video game world.

Going from friends to something more is one hell of a challenge. Can Tessa and Adam level up their relationship to love?

Fun Story

A realistic view of a female software engineer working in a man's world and trying to beat the odds with her considerable talents. She learns not only how to succeed but a lot about herself, as does her male roommate.

My first romantic novel and i think its good

Well we all seek connections and listening to romantic novel was unique experience. So i will be reading more to come to absolute review about this project

Delightful!

Stumbled upon this book and was pleasantly surprised. A cute fun romance wrapped around the issues of women in a male dominated field and what they have to go through. Well done.

Cute Geeky Romance

I really liked this book. I think I have the potential to be a gamer nerd but I have lots of other interests too where it’s not a priority. I loved Tessa and Adam. I love how Adam encouraged Tessa to break out of her shell and she would up finding a group of girls she really likes. Adam was a really break from the typical alpha a-hole guys in most books. He was sweet and a little clueless but it was cute. I can’t stress how much I loved them together.

I listened to the audiobook narrated by Selena St. Clair and Jay Skelton. Both are new narrators to me but I think they worked for this audiobook. Their voices matched well with the vibe of the characters. I would listen to a book narrated by these two again.

Surprisingly Delightful

Heavy literature this is not - but if you're looking for a fun, light read I would highly recommend.

While there are a ton of light fluffy romances out there, it's so rare to find one where the characters are still distinct, compelling and nuanced. And there is actually enough non-sex/romance plot to keep the reader engaged with turning the page. Yes, this is light and a little campy. But it also felt a lot closer to reality than many romances I've read, and was a delight to listen too.

Definitely will not be my last book by this author.
