Skylar needs to learn the most popular video game on the market, Dragon’s Heart. Kered is just the man to show it to her. He is one of the mentors on the game’s message board and over a two week, intensive training period, he knows he wants to get to know Skylar in a more intimate manner. Skylar refuses to meet with him though.

Sydney Johnson, as Sydney Jones, the new Assistant Art Design Director for Virtual Lexigen, the maker of Dragon’s Heart is determined to root out the people she believes responsible for her brother’s death two years previous. She has just spent the last two weeks getting intensive training on the game from Kered, a man with whom she believes she “would have gotten along famously in person.”

Jake Trask is the Vice President of Marketing for Virtual Lexigen. Thanks to a leaky ceiling, he has been moved down to live with the “peons.” He never thought he’d be grateful for a leaky ceiling until the day Sydney moved into the office next to his. He is even more grateful when he learns that she is his elusive Skylar.

These two must learn to balance their multiple identities in order to achieve their greatest desires, justice and a chance with each other.

This reviewer absolutely loved this book for the fact that she was stupid enough to start it at midnight, and couldn’t go to sleep until she had finished it. Ms. Michelle quickly draws you into Sydney and Jake’s world. First three words that popped into this reviewer’s head to describe the story were edgy, engaging and erotic. Jake is a man who won’t give up and Sydney is a woman who won’t give in. The sparks they strike off each other are electrifying. The background of video game development and a light overlay of international intrigue add spice to an already hot story. There is a tantalizing hint at the end of the story that this is not the last the reader will see of Jake and Sydney, and this reviewer is happily awaiting any future stories with them in it.
