I broke into the wrong apartment.
He locked every door. And then he kept me.

I’ve been surviving on my own since I aged out of foster care at eighteen. Quick hands, quick feet, quicker instincts. The DUMBO loft looked like an easy score… guy barely leaves, insane tech, a laptop worth enough to get me through winter.

Forty minutes on the lock. Slipped inside. Found the laptop.

Every door locked simultaneously.

A face appeared on the central monitor… pale, dark-haired, dark circles under his eyes. Blinking at me through a camera I never saw.

“That laptop’s encrypted,” Ronan O’Connor said. “You won’t crack it. But I’m curious about the lock. How did you get through the lock?”

He didn’t call the cops. Didn’t call his brothers in the Irish mob that runs Brooklyn. He just… didn’t let me leave.

Because he’s fascinated. With me.

And the awkward, intense, socially hopeless hacker who brought me a three-thousand-dollar jacket because I mentioned being cold? Who stammers when I smile but can destroy someone’s entire digital life with a keystroke?

He’s the most dangerous man I’ve ever met. And the first one who’s ever made me want to stay.

The Irish Hacker is a scorching dark Irish mafia romance featuring a socially awkward tech genius who worships the ground she walks on, a chaotic street thief who’s never been safe before, and a love story that rewrites every rule. Dual POV. Standalone with a guaranteed happily ever after. No cliffhanger.
