About this listen

If life's a game, I'm tired of losing.

Some people are marked for greatness, some have all the luck, and some catch their boyfriend boning his secretary in the middle of the workday.

Sick of being replaceable, I throw a dart at a map and ghost the jerk, ready to build a life that can't be packed up in an hour like I never existed at all.

My fresh start comes to a bloody halt when I hit a dangerous man with more scars than sense on my way into town, someone that even the hospital is afraid to touch. Add in the ghostly roommate that came with my house, my rugged new boss who's weirdly obsessed with feeding me, and a shy genius who can create tech that almost seems... magical? I finally feel like I've found a home worth fighting for.

My ex isn't the only one freaking out that I disappeared without a trace. Knowing I'd never go offline for weeks unless something terrible happened, my gaming partner leaves the virtual world behind to track me down and bring me home with him… even if it meant eliminating anyone who stands in his way.

It quickly becomes clear that Mercy Ridge is more than just strange, and the people who live here are more than just human. The craziest part? They claim I'm supernatural just like them. And their tattoos? Proof they're my fated mates.

But if I really am what they say? People will stop at nothing to try to claim me to use my powers for themselves or hunt me down for being a threat.

And if the most dangerous monsters look just like everyone else... can I even trust the four men who claim I'm theirs?

This is book one in duet, featuring a gamer girl fmc human (or so she thought) swept up into a supernatural world she believed to be a myth. Her obsessive fated mates are a shadow demon stalker, an alpha shifter, and a shy tech mage.

This is a very lightweight, and fun paranormal romance. There is no angst, no messing around within the group, and a plot that is easy to follow. A nice B-Romance as she doesn't seem to actually have any friends outside the group, and there isn't really much of a plot to follow besides their interactions with each other and figuring out who she is. Still very nice and I'll be definitely getting the next one.
