The #5Star Affair

Jaycie Wharry is one of gaming's most infamous reviewers-under the intentionally vague pseudonym J-Dub. Most of her friends didn't even know what she really did for a living. Then again, one in particular was missing a few solder points in his neural circuits, and she traded that life in as fast as she could when his infatuation with her translated into a threat to her safety. Her new roommate, Ethan, is just supposed to be a firewall against the past, but they're heating up the wires faster than an X-box on a summer's day.

When one of Ethan's friends leaks Jaycie's reviewing identity to the entire internet, accusing her of sleeping with developers in exchange for her 5-star approval, both of their careers are threatened. Since slapping a gag-order on the internet to protect their jobs, privacy, and safety isn't an option, Jaycie and Ethan will need to archive all their preconceived notions, or watch their future-with each other and in general-crash in an unrecoverable way.
