For those of you who enjoyed the web serial first draft of GIRL GEEK, this is an expanded, revised, edited and proofed edition of the book. There is about 40% more content (including completely new scenes) than the original draft version on the website.
Mia Strong is beyond stressed out. With pre-med courses, the looming qualifying exam, a job, and her mother’s serious health problems, she’s feeling the pressure from all sides. As a distraction, she turns to online gaming and her newest addiction, Dragon Epoch. Mia seeks an escape into fantasy–never dreaming that she’d find something real.
He goes by FallenOne. He’s smart, funny, and has a sexy voice. Their instant connection is the best thing that’s happened to Mia in a long time. He listens for hours while she bares her innermost fears. But he holds everything back about himself. At first, the mystery intrigues her, until she faces a life-altering decision. Now, Mia needs someone she can trust.
Will FallenOne’s friendship turn into something real? Or will the fantasy disappear, leaving her alone and in turmoil?
*Note: A draft version of this story appeared on the author’s website. This is now a novel-length work of fiction that has been expanded, revised and edited, adding 40% more content.

Up All Night on Release Day with Brenna Aubrey
On release day, on my Facebook Author page, I did a short video for midnight in each time zone where my books are read. (I skipped Australian and NZ timezones as well as Alaska and Hawaii because a girl’s gotta sleep! But I invited those readers to join me during other videos 😀 ) You can see those videos below, if you are interested. Leave comments on this post if you have questions!
“Up All Night” Release Day … in which I talked about lots of stuff in these: this book, the future of the Gaming The System books, the NEW series coming in 2017, my writing process, etc. So watch them if you are interested in learning more about these things! 😀
