The No-Girlfriend Rule

Author(s): Christen Randall

Young Adult

Seventeen-year-old Hollis Beckwith is on a quest to find her place in the world of tabletop gaming. Despite facing her boyfriend's 'No Girlfriends at the Table' rule and enduring the worst game of Secrets & Sorcery ever, Hollis sets out to prove herself as a worthy player. Desperate to find a community where she belongs, Hollis seeks out an all-female gaming group, where she finds unexpected friendships and epic adventures. As she dives into a world of magic, danger and adventure, Hollis finds herself drawn to the party's bard, Aini Amin-Shaw. Aini is cool, charismatic and everything Hollis wants to be. But as the lines between the game and reality start to blur, Hollis's in-game crush starts to turn into some very real feelings that she can't ignore.
