Well this book had it all! Suspense, intrigue, romance and of course some sexy time (not too much though). It follows infamous computer hacker Hannah Whalen as she navigates a relationship with Mason Kohler, the FBI agent who is assigned to find her alter ego, Freedom Overdrive. There are so many twists and turns in the plot line of this story, I had no idea who to trust (except of course Agent Kohler, I'd trust him with my life). I make no bones about the fact that I adored Mason, he was a strong, sexy, true alpha male with insecurities that made him even more ideal. Hannah however, I found to be manipulative and harsh with a slight 'god complex' that annoyed me no end. Both of them seemed to be naive and trusting in the wrong people, I wanted to bash their heads together. The chemistry between them was palpable and even with all the lies and deceit I found myself rooting for them to get their HEA. Sadly I never got to find out because their conclusion is in book 2. A cliffhanger, who knew? I was devastated, I have months to wait, and I can say without a shadow of a doubt I'll be reading the next book. I have to know how this story plays out, just a shame I've got to wait. Excellent writing, a brilliant storyline told in dual POV, I loved t. I was provided with an advanced copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I was first introduced to A. Meredith Walters with her stunning and flawless book, The Contradiction of Solitude. It blew my mind and ever since then, I've been reading everything she has put out. Exploited was amazing. It was full of suspense, twists and turns. I was on pins and needles the entire book. Every single page was perfect and as usual, her words were mesmerizing. Seriously, reading her books is like floating on a raft in the ocean, so calming, yet so dangerous. I love it. I loved every part of Exploited and can't wait for more!

This is a nice book, but it has some issues.
First, I didn't really like Mason, he was a mix of alpha male and idiot agent, I mean, who trust so much someone you just met? Also, I didn't really feel empathy for him, his story didn't make me like him not even a bit. For me he was just predictable and boring.
Hannah, otherwise, was a nice character, she was smart and confidant and kept loyal to herself and her family.
Other problem was that the story is really predictable, I could see every single thing coming miles before it arrived. For me, there was no plot twists, no surprise, no tension.
It wasn't a bad book, but I've already seen this a thousand times.
