For some reason, Simon was skeptical of using a random lady who chased them down the street as a paid GM, but he came around without too much trouble.

When Lisa doesn't show up for their Saturday game, Porter decides to go check on her. When he finds out she's really, actually sick, he calls for reinforcements.

“Jesus, Lisa. Are you okay? You look like death.”

He enters the apartment as soon as I’m no longer blocking the doorway and sweeps me up into his arms. I instantly relax, my body grateful for not having to support itself any longer, and he carries me into my bedroom, onto my bed, and tucks me in.

My eyelids weigh a thousand pounds so I let them close, beginning to drift off. In the background I hear Porter talking to someone.

“Yeah, she’s really out of it. Can you bring a few things over here? I don’t want to leave her alone.”

Don't you just hate it when your cute new friend comes over to fix your computer and ends up finding your favorite "toy" instead?

Roll for Love, out November 10, is a geeky contemporary romance full of laughs, steam, and tabletop rpgs.

“I just thought I’d come over and take a look at your laptop,” he says. His eyes go wide on something near the bed, and after a moment he turns around, putting his back to me. “I didn’t realize you were still in bed; I’m sorry, I’m an annoying morning person. Umm, so where’s the computer?”

I look over at my bed and have to take a deep breath to still myself. Of course my vibrator - my very obvious Magic Wand lookalike - was laying right out in the open. I quickly grab some pants, turn around, and hustle Simon out of my bedroom; then I put on the yoga pants before I lose whatever smidgen of dignity I might have left.

I’d rather say no food or drink near the laptop, but I know that’s impractical. So just… don’t let them touch, okay?”

“Yes, sir,” I say.
