Hacked (Licking Thicket: Horn of Glory #3) by Lucy Lennox, May Archer


Hacked was a phenomenally, hysterical read that kept me glued to the pages! Being back in Licking Thicket is one of the best imaginative places to be.

From the blurb:

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.



Janet's Review:

Hacked was a phenomenally, hysterical read that kept me glued to the pages! Being back in Licking Thicket is one of the best imaginative places to be. 

Jasper Huxley and Kevin Rogers were so good together, serious comedic relief! The chemistry poured off the two of them, especially when they finally gave into it. 

Hux is a cyber security for Champion Security, he thinks Kev is young and impetuous and out for his job. 

Kev is a consultant for Champion, but there’s so much more to him that meets the eye. 

They are forced to work together, my favorite trope! The puns in this story are fantastic!! I’m going to miss the HOG guys and their antics! 

Overall, a truly outrageously funny read that will hook you and not let go so easily. Well written with that perfect pacing that grabs you. Highly recommend.
