Role Playing

In this engaging rom-com by Cathy Yardley, two middle-aged gamers navigate their unexpected online bond as they transition to real-life romance. Maggie, a grumpy forty-eight-year-old hermit, reluctantly steps out of her comfort zone at her son’s urging and joins a gaming guild, where she meets the optimistic Aiden, known as Otter. Believing each other to be vastly different, they discover that their real-life encounters are far more complicated than their virtual friendship. As they confront their individual emotional baggage, Maggie and Aiden must determine if their connection can thrive outside the digital world.
