Love at First Con-Flict
By Janet Leigh
- Default Title
Description
Jade has one shot to save Shadycade-the quirky vintage arcade bar that's been her home, her job, and her whole heart. When her famous, reclusive romance-author twin begs her to attend San Diego Comic-Con in her place, Jade grabs the chance to study the latest gaming trends and prove the bar can be a full-on nerd paradise...not the next Starbucks.
There's just one rule: no one can know her real name.
Luke would rather be grinding on Xbox than grinning behind a booth, but he's stuck manning his comic shop's table and secretly ghostwriting his boss's brutal reviews. As the anonymous hatchet man who once tanked a certain romance author's career, he's used to ruining lives from behind a keyboard. And he's sick of playing someone else's game.
There's just one rule: no one can know he's the ghostwriter.
When Jade is knocked off her feet by a charming Converse-wearing Jedi, sparks fly faster than a hyperspace jump. "Red," as Luke dubs the fiery gamer who won't give him her name, is everything he's sworn to avoid: distracting, irresistible, and far too unforgettable for a reckless fling.
But Comic-Con is a minefield of secrets. Jade is posing as the very author whose career Luke nearly destroyed with one devastating review.
And Luke's big Comic-Con mission? Expose that same elusive author...or lose the comic shop he loves.
As panels, parties, and high-stakes game tournaments pile on the pressure-and a mysterious gamer called Python keeps wrecking Jade's high scores and her business plan-their con-fling becomes a collision course with the truth.
When masks come off, and one brutal public confrontation exposes every lie, Jade and Luke have to decide what matters more: protecting their secrets or fighting for a love that's leveled them both.
In a whirlwind of fandom, cosplay, retro arcades, found family, and second chances, Love at First Con-Flict delivers a swoony, laugh-out-loud rom-com where the final level is learning to trust-for real this time.
Because in this game, there's only one condition: No more Secrets. Ever. Tropes: Enemies to Lovers Twin Swap Secret Identities Second Chances Need more of Janet Leigh's snarky humor? Check out the Jennifer Cloud Time Travel Romance Series.
