A Special Note from Melissa Raquel
Dear Readers,
I've got exciting news to share! To celebrate the release of my newest book, Playing Games 6, I'm offering a special thank-you to all of you who have been part of this journey with me. For a limited time only, several of the earlier books in the Playing Games series are completely free on Amazon!
If you've been meaning to catch up, or if you've just discovered the series and want to see where Dayana's story began, now is the perfect time to dive in. And if you've already walked this road with her -- through the friendships, the fears, the transformations -- I promise you, Playing Games 6 brings everything to a powerful, emotional, and unforgettable new chapter.
This new release is my most personal yet. It's for anyone who has ever struggled to be seen, who has dared to imagine a future that feels just out of reach. I poured my heart into every page, and I truly believe Playing Games 6 will speak to you in a deep and lasting way.
So don't wait -- grab the free books while you can, revisit the journey, and then join me for what I hope will be your favorite installment yet.
With all my love and gratitude,
Melissa Raquel

"Sometimes, to truly find yourself, you need to lose everything you thought you were."
Dayana Dennison is ready to embrace her truth -- but is her world ready for her? In the vibrant city of Toronto, Dayana's journey continues as she navigates the complex realities of coming out as transgender to her family, friends, and the larger world.
After years of hiding behind the persona of Desmond, Dayana finally shares her true self with her family. But the road to acceptance isn't without its challenges. From tense family meetings to grounding moments of unconditional love, Dayana's story is a poignant exploration of identity, courage, and the power of connection.
This fourth installment of the Playing Games series takes readers deeper into Dayana's life as she prepares for her first public art gallery showcase -- a space where her creativity thrives and her authentic self shines. Along the way, she faces heartbreak, resilience, and the unwavering support of her siblings, Shane and Evelyn, and her parents, Catalina and James.
Will her family stand by her when she faces harsh societal judgment? Can Dayana find the strength to navigate school, art, and her growing confidence in her identity?
Featuring 10 beautifully crafted illustrations, Playing Games: A Transgender Journey of Self-Discovery, Family, and Art is a visually rich and emotionally stirring tale. Whether you've been following Dayana's story from the beginning or are discovering it for the first time, this book offers an unforgettable blend of heartfelt moments and inspiring triumphs.
Perfect for fans of coming-of-age stories, LGBTQ+ narratives, and character-driven fiction, this book is a must-read for anyone seeking a deeply human story of transformation, hope, and love.
Start reading today to continue Dayana's journey toward living authentically -- and see why readers are calling Playing Games "a masterpiece of identity and resilience."
