“Because maybe if the gesture is grand enough, and perfect enough, it won’t be unrequited at all and I, Graham William Posner— lanky, pale, glasses, and with a penchant for fantasy worlds— will actually get the girl…”

Graham is in love with his best friend Roxy, and he has decided to confess his feelings at New York Comic Con. When their favorite author, the reclusive and fictional Robert Zinc, announces that he will be making a surprise appearance, it seems like the stars have aligned. All Graham has to do is camp out all night, bribe his friend into letting him have the second ticket, and he can confess his love after the panel. It’s a recipe for nerdy love!

Unfortunately, for Graham, everything that could go wrong will go wrong during his comic con weekend. It starts with a mad rush for wristbands to the author panel, then there’s the speed dating where Roxy meets an irritatingly handsome and British guy. There are some things Graham can’t predict, but by the time comic con is over, his friendship with Roxy will change, just maybe not the way he expected.
