Harper Reid's summer is not off to a great start. After the death of her grandpa, she moves across the country, leaving her friends and Dungeons & Dragons group behind. Finding herself back on the farm where she spent her childhood is not how she planned on spending her senior year, but running into Ollie Shifflet, her childhood best friend and first crush, makes things a little better. When Harper discovers Ollie and her friends are starting a new D&D campaign, she quickly joins the group, and as Harper and Ollie reconnect in the real world, romantic tension begins to build between Harper's brash Barbarian and Ollie's proud Paladin.With each gaming session, the two friends start to question if maybe there is something more between them, until their D&D characters' relationship complicates Ollie's goal to keep her bisexuality private and Harper's struggle to stay true to herself and her goals for the future. As the school year starts to come to a close and the campaign's final boss looms on the horizon, Harper and Ollie must decide if their feelings for each other are more than just a fantasy and if they are ready to make them a reality.

They’re the Guardians of the Galaxy, turning a tidy profit as heroes for hire—or, they will be if Peter Quill can get his act together. After he botches the most critical part of their latest mission—getting paid—his newly assembled crew is close to ditching him for good. Now he needs a big payday, fast.When an old acquaintance shows up offering a whole lot of units for a field trip to Peter's past, it’s a no-brainer. Twelve years ago, Peter fought the Chitauri alongside the Resistance on Mercury to prevent an invasion of Earth. Now it's time to go back. The old Resistance base has a squatter, and it's up to the Guardians to ‘gently escort' them off the premises… and unmask a wartime traitor while they’re at it.But war is heavy, man, and the Galactic War screwed up each of the Guardians in their own special ways. The brand-new team is barely hanging together, and the mission brings up all kinds of bad memories. It’s make or break time for the Guardians, and they do so love breaking things…Just hopefully not each other.
