An engaging read following the lives of Sam and Sadie, who become best friends during the long days spent in hospital as kids (Sadie visiting her sister and Sam recovering from a car accident). After falling out as teens, they reunite when they run into each other while at college in Boston (Sadie at MIT and Sam at Harvard). Now both gamers, they decide to develop a game together, but old resentments still simmer, Sadie insecure that Sam is taking all the credit in the male dominated industry, while Sam has a chip on his shoulder about what Sadie did to him when they were kids. As the years go by and their gaming company becomes more successful, they navigate how to be both friends and business partners, their creative geniuses not always complementing one another, especially when one of them is secretly in love with the other. A touching look into friendship how it can mean more than any great love.
