I found Roll for Romance by Lenora Woods and the description feels like a nerdy Hallmark movie centered around D&D (Dungeons & Dragons) and romance. I'm all for nerds finding romance and perhaps in Sadie Brooks' case some self-discovery as well. There seems to be some underlying reason as to why she lost her job and will it factor into her decision when another job opportunity is available? And her love interest Noah seems fun and charming but if she is only there temporarily, is it worth taking a chance on love? I guess I'll find out when I get a chance to read this. This seems like interesting story and I'd really like to read it.
Side Note: I've never played Dungeons & Dragons but I do have friends who do maybe one day I'll actually give it a try.
Book: Roll for Romance by Lenora Woods
Description:
Two fledgling tabletop gamers find themselves falling for each other—both in and out of their weekly D&D sessions—in this cozy, fantasy-tinged romance.
When Sadie Brooks unexpectedly loses her marketing job, she flees New York City to spend the summer with her best friend in small-town Texas, where joining his Dungeons & Dragons campaign is the perfect distraction while she plans her next steps.
In the game, she becomes Jaylie, a powerful human cleric blessed by the Goddess of Luck. But in real life, Sadie believes her luck has run out—until she meets Noah Walker, the outgoing bartender roped into joining their party as Loren, an adventurous and charismatic lute-strumming elf. Just as Jaylie finds herself succumbing to the bard’s charms over the course of their party’s travels, Sadie also begins to fall under Noah’s spell.
As their relationship progresses in both worlds, Sadie wonders if what they have might last beyond the game. But like his traveling bard character, Noah never stays in one place for long. When a new opportunity arises in New York, Sadie must face the truth about why she lost her job in the first place—and whether she and Noah have found something in Texas worth staying for. Torn between her career dreams in the city and the exciting uncertainty of a new adventure, she will have no choice but to roll the dice.
