"Into the Real (Transdimensional Hunter)" by John Ringo and Lydia Sherrer
    https://www.amazon.com/Into-Real-John-Ringo/dp/1982192577/
 Book number one of a two book science fiction series.  I read the well printed and terribly bound MMPB that I bought new from Amazon that was published by Baen in 2023.  I contacted Baen about replacing the MMPB since about 60 or 80 pages fell out as I was reading the book, a replacement is reputedly on the way.  I have ordered the second book in MMPB in the series which is due out in November 2024.
 Lynn Raven is a 16 year old girl living with her ER nurse widowed mom in the Baltimore area of the USA in the 2040s.  Lynn moonlights after high school as an old mercenary named Larry Coughlin, a Tier One player in the WarMonger 2050 FPS (first person shooter) online game.  She collects guns and health in the game for resale for hard cash dollars, helping her mom out with the bills and saving money for college.   And she also torments boys in her school, killing their characters randomly in the WarMonger game.
 But Lynn has been noticed by the billionaire inventor, Robert Krator, of WarMonger 2050.  And he wants her to move to his new game, an outside AR (augmented reality) FPS game called TransDimensional Hunter, as a beta tester with free equipment and such.  He wants Lynn to step into the real.
