About this listen
He got a good job. Bought a nice house. Built a beautiful backyard pool. He spends most of his time at work, sacrificing a social life for corporate advancement, but it's a trade-off his dream home justifies.
Until Will loses his job. Suddenly unemployed, Will takes to spending hours on end appreciating the pool he can no longer afford. Day after day, he sits beside it, watching its beautiful ripples as they lull him into a state of blithe indifference, quieting the part of his brain sounding alarm bells. In the midst of ignoring his personal financial crisis, a convenient distraction enters his life.
Sibyl Sparrow, a pretty, pale, purple-haired girl from a cyberpunk universe suddenly emerges from a portal at the bottom of Will's swimming pool. She's got a crisis of her own, with consequences significantly more dire than Will's looming bankruptcy. She's being hunted. A sentinel from the evil Zurug Corporation slipped into Will's universe at the same time as Sibyl. It's come to retrieve a high-tech nanobot system Sibyl stole and installed within herself, granting her all sorts of incredible abilities.
They'll need those abilities to beat the sentinel. And time is ticking. If they fail to defeat their cyborg enemy before he establishes interdimensional contact with Zurug Corp, then the corporation will receive Earth's coordinates, at which point Will and Sibyl's problem will get considerably worse. Like apocalyptic.
But they're not alone. Will's nosy, nerdy neighbor Ronnie can't help but insert himself. Then another interdimensional refugee escapes through Will's pool, an elf by the name of Nella Marien, whose own past holds clues about their present foe.
Together, this motley team might just manage to save the world. Then Will can get back to sipping poolside mai tais - perhaps with some lovely company joining him.
This novdlla contains unconventional romance centered around one male featuring scenes of physical intimacy.
