Hardwired The Hacker Series #1 edition by Meredith Wild Romance eBooks

Sadly, this is another Fifty Shades of Grey, just on the East Coast rather than the West Coast. If you haven't read the other book, this one might be okay. Unfortunately, there were too many similarities that I just kept comparing the two books. The main characters didn't have any depth, so I got bored with them, too. (Minor character Sid is really the only character I liked.)

**SPOILERS**

This is essentially the book with similarities between 50 Shades:
1. Billionaire control-freak (Blake) and "normal girl" just graduated from college (Erica) meet, attracted at first sight.
2. Billionaire has a brother and sister, and the brother dates Erica's best friend.
3. Billionaire is invested in ex-girlfriend's (Sophia) business.
4. Erica goes to different city, Blake follows.
5. Billionaire is able to find out info and control Erica (except rather than having people do things for him, he's the hacker).
6. Antagonist who is jealous of Blake's status and who Erica works with.
7. Everyone seems to be attracted to Erica, Blake comes in to save her from unwanted attention.

The author tries to make the reader feel pity for Erica, but I just get bored with her. Poor girl lost her mother to cancer at age 12, stepfather sends her to boarding school. She gets raped in college, but is able to move on and start her own business. Really, the only noticeable difference is at the very end of the book, with Erica's newly-found biological father and stepbrother.

Hardwired The Hacker Series #1 edition by Meredith Wild Romance eBooks Reviews

At first I didn't know what to expect. I most certainly did not anticipate getting sucked in and devoured by a world complete with billionaires, computer hackers, fashion start ups, and young impressionable college-aged heroines. I'll admit that I don't normally gravitate towards characters that are in college but this one just graduated so it all worked out.

Erica was a character unlike others I've read. Yes, she has a broken past but the will to survive and strive in her life made her special. She's had some incredibly hard things to deal with, losing her Mom at a young age, boarding school, living life with no family, and more that I will not spoil for a new reader. She's the type of woman who could so easily have given up but instead turned around and made something of herself even if she didn't necessarily have the love of a family to cheer her on. Her friends become her family and I'm a big believer in friends being the family you choose.

Blake the hero in this first book is very much the anti-hero to me. He's pushy, bossy, and downright arrogant. Not exactly the loveable guy a girl would normally go mushy towards. However, that all changed in book two.

Loved the opening book and would highly recommend it. Heat level is a solid 8 out of 10 which is my sweet spot.
4.5 Stars

Hardwired by Meredith Wild is a love a story and so much more. The book is told in first person by Erica Hathaway; she is a fresh graduate from Harvard University, entrepreneur of her own Internet start-up fashion site-the company that she has poured her life into imagining and creating out of nothing. The company is her passion. She is alone in the world except for her mom's best friend Maria and her two business partners, Allie and Sid.

Enter Blake Landon; he literally bumps into Erica, and the sensual sparks fly. Sexy and devilishly handsome, he is every woman's fantasy man. The bump is short and sweet, but it leaves Erica with fantasy material, as the girl has no time for a social life. Psst, he is a billionaire control freak but a likeable billionaire control freak. He is going to have problems with `all career' Erica and that is just how it is going to be. Her company is her single-minded focus, and she is a driven individual; she doesn't have time for a man. So begins the journey of Erica and Blake meeting.

What I like about this book is that the plot was multifaceted. First you had the story line of Erica and her partners trying to get capital to grow their business. Erica and her partners Sid and Allie are having growing pains. They are all newly graduated from Harvard and expected to make their lives in the big bad non-academic world of real life. Each of the partners aren't just cardboard cut out place holders in for the main romance plot. They are three-dimensional characters who have their own lives. Sid isn't as fleshed out as Allie, but I expect that to happen as the series progresses.

Then, of course, you have the love story between Blake and Erica. No, this isn't `I fall at your feet and worship you because you are a billionaire time' for Erica. This is `I fight tooth and nail to ignore the pull for the billionaire and stand up for myself time' for Erica. Hey, the girl is a scotch drinker, and I expected nothing less. If she would have drank one of those fruity drinks, then all bets were off. Now I just need to know her brand to know how committed I will be to Erica. Yes, I'm a Scotch snob. Sue Me.

Then there was a very interesting plot twist in the book revolving around Erica's past, and guess what? I am not going to spoil it for anyone. But boy, it is a big blow-up-the-book type twist. This was an enjoyable book with characters I can't wait to read more about, as there is a sequel coming entitled Hardpressed.
Harvard graduate Erica Hathaway gets the opportunity to pitch investors for more funding for her internet start-up. Former hacker and billionaire technology investor Blake Landon sits on the board…

Five full-length novels read in no time, I guess you could say I devoured them. This series deserve way more attention than it’s getting! Blake Landon carried the story! 6-star shelf.
