Erica struggles with her obsessions, to the point where her life is ruled by them. After losing her job, she seeks out a new one with the aid of her best friend Kara by her side. Change has always been tricky, but between support group and art classes, Erica finds she’s able to cope with everything.

With her head held high, she’s determined to make the best of her new job. Cue handsome yet mysterious Blaine. Erica does her best to avoid him, convinced that her OCD will be a barrier that he won’t understand.

Except, Blaine has his own obsessions. The more she learns about him, the more Erica realizes that she’s not alone. Her Christmas present is something she’s only been able to dream about for years - a partner who not only accepts her, but one who understands her, too.

The OCD Games was completely different than I was expecting, but I really enjoyed it. Maybe this subject hit harder for me, since I have struggled with compulsions all my life, but I think the author did a beautiful job of portraying the daily struggles for people with OCD and other psychological issues. Erica is one of these people, and she suffers socially, emotionally and financially due to her compulsions. The story begins with Erica losing her office job due to her morning rituals always causing her to show up late for work. This loss sends her into a tailspin, but, with the encouragement of her support group and her best friend, she gathers the courage to apply for and receive a job as a convenience store cashier. One of her co-workers is a mysterious man named Blaine, and she feels an immediate draw towards him but believes she is too messed up to ever attract him. Amazingly enough, Blaine and Erica might just be the perfect answer for each other's problems and watching them come to this realization is a both sad and happy journey in equal measures.

Raine Barrett's narration is fantastic. She has a smooth and pleasing delivery, and she added the perfect level of emotion to this very moving story. The team of Krantz as the author and Barrett as the narrator results in a wonderful audiobook production.

I received a copy of this audiobook at my request in exchange for this honest review.

I wanted to give Erica a hug......

This is a sweet love story, and I have to give the author kudos for writing about OCD and anxiety in such a real way. It was painfully realistic. The awkward coworker attraction was cute and realistic and made me think of high school romances.

However, I was disappointed in the writing style, which was a bit clumsy and littered with far too many cliches. Sometimes they didn't even make sense in context, such as: "...afraid they'll bite me like a rabid dog if I make eye contact." With a bit more editing and removal of cliches, this could easily gain a star or two.

The conversations between the main character and her best friend were a little forced, and at one point her best friend grabs her from behind in a parking lot as she's bent over to get her purse and terrifies her, and this is passed off as "funny" instead of sexual harassment.

Also, though the OCD and anxiety felt very real, they were consistently represented in a very negative way, with phrases like "the worst of me." It's very clear the main character despises her anxiety and OCD, but the author's word choice makes them seem even worse. It just rubbed me the wrong way.

The narrator of the audiobook had a voice a little too breathy and monotone and littered the recording with weird pauses and accents that made it difficult to listen to.

I loved this novella, it is original and well written. Kayla Krantz fits a lot of story in her book, a story that immediately grabs your attention from the start. The storylines are interesting and realistic. The characters are likable and well developed. I could totally relate to Erica’s struggles, everyone needs an understanding friend like Kara. And swoon worthy Blaine, I loved the chemistry between him and Erica. This is my first novel with characters who suffer from OCD and the author nails it and presents it well. This story takes place around Christmas time but can be enjoyed year round. Kayla Krantz, thank you for this unique and great story.

I listened to the audible edition, Raine Barrett does a wonderful job narrating. She performs the voices of all the characters and brings them to life from the pages to your ears. Thanks for the great listen!!

This story was cute. Characters had good background. Wish there was more to the story at the end. Did have a few repeat statements from editing but nothing huge.

Good shorter listen

This is a cute quirky YA romance with an interesting plot and adorable, endearing characters. It embraces the quirks, disorders, and obsessions that make us who we are, and shows that there is someone out there for everyone, even is our weirdness (and face it, we all have some weirdness about us, right?) This story encourages us to not be held back by our inhibitions, whatever they may be. To find love, we need to let ourselves be open enough to receive it.
I listened to the audio version and narrator, Raine Barrett, did a wonderful job bringing these characters and this story to life.

I loved this story!

I really enjoyed this novella. Erica struggles with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). It's a term that people throw around freely but for some it's a hard thing to live with. In this story we get a look into the life of someone who struggles with it. Every day tasks are complicated for her than they are for others. Erica has a good support system. Her support group really helps. And her best friend accepts her for who she is, even if she doesn't fully understand it at times. The story starts with Erica losing her job for being late all the time, something that her OCD has caused. She gets a new job and is going through the motions of trying to hide this side of her. Then she meets Blaine and he is mysterious and alluring. As they get to know each other she discovers he understands and accepts her. She even helps him. I loved following Erica's journey to happiness. I found myself swooning for Blaine too. I love that he never gave up on her. The only thing I didn't like is...I want more! I want more of Erica and Blaine. This novella leaves us with a feeling of love and happiness for them but I am greedy and want more into the life of this couple. I want to see where their relationship goes. Note to author...PLEASE TELL ME YOU HAVE PLANS FOR MORE!
This is a heart warming and eye opening story that all readers/listeners will enjoy.

Great eye opening romance

I got this ARC via audiobook boom and this is my voluntary review. I learned a lot about OCD. I thought I knew someone who had OCD but I was so wrong. The story was great. Loved Blaine. Loved the interaction between the two.

A Surprise
