When a cozy streamer with a cult following meets a brooding game producer under corporate fire, sparks fly—in and out of the dungeon.

Lucy “LucetheGoose” Anderson has built a safe haven online, streaming the MMORPG The Veil with her best friend and a mug of tea in hand. But when she's invited to join the game's official Expansion Hype Team™, her quiet world collides with the high-stakes chaos of game development.

Elgin Meadows is barely holding it together. As a senior producer at Necromance Studios, he's juggling a hostile corporate takeover, a make-or-break expansion, and a team on the verge of burnout. The last thing he expects is to find solace in a streamer's voice—or to fall for her, one beta test at a time.

As the expansion nears launch, Wonder Studios threatens to monetize everything the devs love about The Veil. With the future of the game—and their connection—on the line, Lucy and Elgin must decide what they're willing to risk for creative freedom, community, and each other.

A slow-burn, dual-POV romance for anyone who's ever fallen in love through a headset.
