Summary from Goodreads: Spring break is supposed to be a week of fun in the sun for three childhood friends about to graduate from college. But one of them is ready to get her game on somewhere else…
Charlie Castle is an expert archer and a fierce warrior—in her favorite video game, anyway. But college life was a program she couldn't quite master. To land a cybertech job without a degree, she's entering a "hackfest" over spring break—where she also hopes to meet the sweet gamer who's been flirting with her online. Instead, she runs into the hot guy who walked away years ago, and can't fight the desire that comes rushing back.
Jonah Best has never gotten over Charlie, whose kisses were always as deliciously creative as her coding. But now that they're face to face again, he doesn't know how to admit that her online admirer is really him—or how to convince her that he's offering her a job for her incredible skills, not her sex appeal. Can Jonah cut through their communication glitches and persuade Charlie that the next level up for them should be forever?
Review
4 out of 5 stars
So this book was different and I thought it was good. Charlie feels like she is a failure and a disappointment to everyone in her life but she is so much more. I love that she is into gaming and hacking because it makes her different from other girls in other books. Even though she dropped out of school I can still see her passion for being a part of the hacking world.
Jonah is not the perfect man but that is okay because he is just right for Charlie. He says what he thinks but he shows his deep emotions for her and that is what I like about him. Just by getting into his mind you can automatically see his regret for leaving Charlie but also his love for her. I also loved how he was Win in the video game because it showed he still cared about Charlie. They are perfect of each other because it feels as if one completes the other in a way.
The whole book was unique but it was really short. I don't usually like short books because they are too short. I love long books. Although this book was short it was like a perfect short because it described everything that was necessary and showed their developing relationship. I had fun getting to know Charlie and Jonah and I am glad I gave this short book a shot.

About the Author
Shannyn is a former English
teacher, who now works as a part-time editor while raising her three kids.
Even though she wrote from
high school through college (mostly poetry), she’d never considered a career as
an author. Writing fell by the wayside as she focused her energy on creating
lesson plans and new and fabulous ways to torment her teen students. One group
in particular dubbed her “The Torture Master,” a title she carried into
motherhood.
After the birth of baby
number two, Shannyn resigned from teaching and fell in love with reading
romance novels. She read so many books so quickly that her husband teased, “If
you’re going to read so many damn books, why don’t you just write one?”
So she did.
