Now every mission is real. Every kill counts. Trust is a gamble. And every heartbeat could be her last.
As Miki fights for her life and humanity’s future, one question echoes louder than any gunfire: Can she stay alive long enough to discover what — or who — pulled her into the Game?

Jaxon’s first date. Ever.
In rehab, he can’t blast his way through galaxies to reach her. He can’t slash through armies to kiss her sweet lips.

And he’ll do whatever it takes—lie, cheat, steal, even learn how to cross-stitch—in order to make it to his date.
If all else fails, Jaxon will have to bare his soul to the other teens in treatment, confront his mother’s absence, and maybe admit that it’s more than video games that stand in the way of a real connection.
Prepare to be cured.
