Hacked (Licking Thicket: Horn of Glory #3)


Trying to catch up on some of my TBRs piled up in my Kindle account before my next binge-read session...Here's Lucy Lennox's and May Archer's "Hacked" (its the third book in the Licking Thicket: Horn of Glory series).

["Well-known computer security infiltration specialist Jasper Huxley has never met a system he can’t hack. Whether his assignment is accessing a highly-classified Pentagon server or modifying his little brother’s high school report card, he’s always got a botnet, an exploit, or a little bit of social engineering he can call up to get the job done.

But there are certain things he can’t finesse, no matter how hard he tries.
•Beating the infuriatingly adorable and maddeningly handsome Kevin Rogers in the ice mammoth expedition during Horn of Glory’s first annual Horn Master Championship week. (Robbery.)
•Accessing stolen cartel data on a device that’s never connected to a network. Pretty sure it’s the fault of a certain busybody gamer who will not be named. (Kev.)
•Sharing a house and–worse–a network with Kev. (Gah.)
•Being forced to allow a non-trained, non-serious, and non-resistable civilian to take part in a critical intel operation (side-eyes Kev)
•Navigating social situations with grace when he continues to run into Kev–and his new gamer “boyfriend”–at society events during the course of a critical mission. (Like any serious relationship starts during a game.)
•Keeping Champion Security’s system safe from increasingly sophisticated black hat threats. (Not Kev, but still… annoying.)

In short, when Kevin Rogers is in the picture, the safe and peaceful life Hux has managed to construct for himself gets suddenly and irrevocably… hacked. (And it’s all Kev’s fault.)"]

I've only been waiting for Kev's story for...forever.
And it makes sense that Lucy and May would match him up with someone like Hux. Someone smart and protective, someone strong and need of support, someone to fight with and flirt with, someone who can bring out the best in you and make you realize what you really need in life.
Then again, that kinda describes Kev and all the reasons why Lucy and May matched Hux up with him. ;)

This was a really fun ending to the series, even if it included more undercover ops and guns and hacking...and a very special bunny.

Blurred Lines (Darby U Hockey Boys #2)

When there's far too many books to pick from, what do you do? Naturally, panic and read nothing while you debate (with yourself) on what...
