Blurb: An unfortunate fall, a sprained wrist, and a broken finger takes Gregory Jones out of the international pro-gaming tournament. But his fortune changes when his crush, South Korean pro Daesung Li, tries to cheer him up by exchanging good luck charms with him. He may not be winning the tournament this year, but he might be lucky enough to win something even better.
Review:
OMG, I absolutely loved this little story! Greg is just arriving at the international pro-gaming tournament when he falls and breaks his finger, forcing him to surrender his gaming spot to his backup. Brokenhearted, he does everything he can to stay upbeat for his team so they can win. But being injured comes with an unexpected surprise when his long-time crush, Daesung, shows up to offer his condolences and support.
*sigh* If you’re looking for something cute, sweet and short, this is definitely the thing to read. Greg and Daesung together are just adorable and the fact that they’re both awkward around one another is too cute. Exchanging their good luck charms is just the start in showing their feelings for each other. But the way that neither of them knew what to talk about when they were around each other just had me melting into a puddle of goo. Sooooooooooo cute!
My only problem is now I want to know what happens next! Yes, I know Greg and Daesung are going to try and make it work but how does that affect their relationship? Living in a different country has to be hard. I would have just like to get a taste of that happening to really know that it could work out.
In the end, though, this was definitely well worth the read. It’s a short, cute story filled with awkward moments between two gaming geeks who have had a crush on one another. I loved that they were both so hesitant and unsure of what was between them. They were just so adorable! There isn’t much depth to the story but, honestly, I didn’t care. I felt like the story as it was, was very satisfying except for the fact that I want to see more of them!
Overall Impression: I loved it!
