Roll for Romance is a perfect book for those who love D&D, fanfiction, and have ever experienced the challenge of figuring out what’s next after achieving all their goals. The book almost reads like half a contemporary romance and half romantasy, and it really scratched an itch in my brain—being able to bounce between Sadie and her D&D cleric character, Jaylie.
Jaylie is an amazing character, and I love how Sadie uses her to reflect the person she wants to become. Watching her navigate her path through art and the game tugs at your heartstrings better than any bard.
Her storyline with Liam is so sweet—he gives major hipster Kristoff from Frozen vibes. The balance of the D&D story portion is just right: filled with fun Easter eggs for fans while still being accessible to readers unfamiliar with the game.
I loved this story, and I really hope we get more with the party. It’s a DC 20 Charisma save not to fall in love with this book!
