Hacker in Love

Secrets. Everybody’s got ‘em, including me. Especially me.

The difference is mine will never be revealed, whereas I can easily get yours, assuming the price offered by your enemy is right and the scales of justice appeal to my personal standards of ethics. Easy peasy lemon squeezy. The thing that’s not so easy for a shy guy like me? Finding Ms. Right and locking her down.

Speaking of Ms. Right, the very night I was set up with Hannah Milliken by our mutual friend, I knew I’d one day kneel before her with a ring in hand. Hannah’s the kind of girl who’ll gleefully dance like a gorilla with me in the coolest nightclub or belt out a karaoke duet from Grease like her very life depends on it. She’s gorgeous, too. Funny and smart. And she even wears librarian glasses. See? Perfect.

I don’t doubt Hannah’s the one for me. Indubitably, she is. I only wonder how a dork like me could possibly land a goddess like her.

Unfortunately, when catastrophe strikes, all my questions are rendered moot. Now that Hannah knows the truth about me not actually working in cybersecurity—as well as the questionable things I’ve done to win her over—will I lose my dream girl forever, or is there still a chance for us to chase our happily ever after?

Hacker in Love is a steamy, funny, heart-pounding, standalone contemporary romance with a whole lot of feels, laughs, spice, and swoons by USA Today and internationally best-selling romance author Lauren Rowe.

Pure cuteness

Henna story is so sweet and loving. I enjoy how every story keeps adding to the last one. Superb writing.

My gob was smacked indubitably!

After telling her readers repeatedly she would NEVER write Peter Hennesy's(aka Henn or Henny) and Hannah Banana's, it's now here! Henny and Hannah's story is just too stinkin adorkable! The only reason I give the performance 4 out of 5 stars is simply I had a different vision in who would voice Henn and Hannah. Ya know you get into a book and vision how these characters would look/sound and it just is a slight miss. John Lane and Lily Reynolds did a wonderful job, they just were not who I envisioned.

If I'm honest, their story reminded me a bit of my husband and I's story, so maybe I have some bias mixed in. I too have an insanely cute and dorky husband who can crack just about anything, hacking included! Sooo maybe I shouldn't admit that on the interwebs but honestly I just can't help to see a bit of Henny in my real-life version of Henny. The only other books I could truly connect with like I did with Hacker in Love was Swoon and Smitten. So to have a trifecta of sorts in which I can dive into parts of my reality with each of those and have the warmth and fondness from my own relationship, it's sort of rare. Actually it's something that I've never truly experienced with any other author beyond Mrs. Rowe's!

If you want the spice, you'll get it! If you want clenching your cheeks on the edge of your seat moments, they are there too. Overall though you get a freaking adorable story about two awkward humans trying to navigate their lives together, learning to trust and let go, knowing that this person is your person and they are your safe space. I personally feel beyond the previously mentioned books, Henn and Hannah's story are the most relatable in many facets to a relationship outside of a book!

This was beautifully written and the timeline created in previously written books was well matched to this story that has been oh 8 years in the making!

Amazing book

Beautifully written! I loved these characters and am so happy they were given their own story for us to enjoy!

I love this book!

I am a fan of Lauren Rowe and all of her books, but this book was fantastic! I knew I would enjoy it, and it blew me away by how much! I absolutely loved these two together and of course all their friend interactions! Such a fun read!

Indubitably swoonworthy

Henn is a hacker. He is one of the good ones making sure the world is safe from the bad people. His friend group is a bunch of successful guys. While his friends are larger than life, Henn is in the background. He is a regular guy. He is the guy to call for help. Hannah is the best friend. She brings the heart and laughs to the party. She has some history that holds her heart back from dating.

Henn and Hannah were set up by their friends and had magnetic attraction at first site. They are nerdy, old souls, who are self conscious making get-to-know-you conversations and find wearing glasses smexy.

There are plenty of steamy times, some light suspense and a bit of drama before the dreamy ending. I have to admit I had a few tears of joy. THIS story is swoon-worthy.

I did listen to the audiobook. John Lane and Lily Reynolds narrate beautifully.

A hallmark of this author is the interconnected characters of stand alone stories. You could read Hacker In Love all by itself, but I recommend you read the other friend books and not miss a bunch of fantastic stories.
