Boy Meets Nerd

De: Leia Shaw

Narrado por: Elizabeth Redmond

After graduating from MIT with a computer science degree, hacker Emerson True bides her time until she lands the perfect job. To pay the bills, she investigates cheating boyfriends and relationship secrets.

Her newest client, musician Levi Morrison, is a typical heartbreaker - gorgeous and charming. He's also the biggest sucker in the world. When red flags pop up, he hires Em to check into the identity of the girl he's fallen for online.

As Em and Levi work together to find his dream girl, they discover they have more in common than they thought. Though Emerson tries to build a firewall around her heart, Levi bypasses it easily. In the end, Levi must choose between his dream girl and the nerd who unwittingly hacked her way into his heart.

Boy Meets Nerd

I can totally image this couple's future...which is always satisfying for a reader. Shaw builds Levi's & Em's characters beyond what the title suggest through carefully crafted scenes where they discovers each other's quirks, strengths and vulnerabilities. Redmond's reading of the dialogue almost makes the "she shrugged" or "he grimaced" (though so necessary in reading a novel) superfluous in her excellent delineation of character for these two young adults still looking for their niche in the universe.
