While her two best friends are frolicking on spring break, Charlie plans to hack her way to a job.

Charlie Castle is spending her spring break at a gaming conference where she'll compete in a "hackfest" that could help her score a job and prove she has the skills to cut it in the cybertech world without a degree. In her downtime, she plans to hang out with gamer friends who know her as an expert elven archer. She also hopes to finally meet her online confidant and partner in crime, but instead runs into her ex. Jonah walked away from her years ago, but time has done nothing to quash her lustful feelings.

Jonah Best has never gotten over Charlie. He's missed their partnership—in bed and out. In an effort to keep her in his life, he became her closest gaming friend without revealing his identity. Charlie has grown up a lot since he left and now he wants to offer her a job where she can put her hacking skills as well as her love of gaming to good use.

How can he reveal who his is without losing her—again?
