Free Loving Vin (Barretti Security Series, #1) by Sloane Kennedy

serious tone in his brother’s voice had Vin sitting straight up and reaching for the folder. He glanced at the contents and sighed when he saw the computer gibberish.
    “You know I can’t read this shit,” he muttered as he flipped through the few pages.
    “Our servers have been hacked,” Dom said.
    Vin froze. “What?”
    “Desi found it this morning,” he muttered. “It happened more than a week ago.”
    Vin cursed. Their company’s reputation was built on protecting their customers, both their information and their bodies – something like this could destroy them.
    “What’d they get?”
    Dom’s hesitation had Vin looking up from the papers. From the look on Dom’s face, he knew it was really bad.
    “They went after our personal servers, not the company’s,” Dom said. “It looks like they got information on Mia.”
    Vin was standing before he even realized it. “What the hell are you talking about?”
    “Emails between myself and her doctors at the hospital before she was committed to the psych ward.”
    Rage went through Vin. “What the fuck, Dom?” he shouted.
    “My texts also back up to that server,” Dom said quietly. “There would have been enough there for them to piece together that I hid her at your house.”
    “Son of a bitch!” Vin yelled as he stepped back from the desk, his chair crashing to the floor. “How could you let this happen?” he snapped.
    Dom paled at the attack and he instantly felt guilty. His brother was one of the smartest men he knew and also the savviest when it came to computers. If he didn’t know something, he made sure to hire the people who did. Not to mention that he was probably already torturing himself for the breach and didn’t need Vin to add his shit to the pile.
    “Sorry,” Vin muttered as he reached for the chair. “You think it was some overzealous reporter?”
    Dom dropped into one of the chairs across from his desk. “Probably not someone who’s legit since he would have had to pay a really good hacker to get past our firewall. Freelancer maybe – for the tabloids.”
    Vin sat back down and ran a hand through his hair. “I guess it doesn’t really change anything,” he murmured.
    “It could have also been Hamilton’s accomplice,” Dom said.
    Shit, he hadn’t considered that. Chances were the guy who’d rigged the collars for Mia’s father and helped him hide his true identity for so long was in the wind by now. But he probably would have had the skill needed to hack their system himself.
    “Fuck, I have to tell her,” Vin muttered.
    “I heard,” came a voice from his office door.
    Vin wanted to rail at his brother all over again for not closing the damn door, but the reality was Mia wouldn’t have heard a thing if he’d managed to keep his temper in check and his voice down.
    “Come on in, Mia,” he called. He was proud of how well she carried herself as she crossed the room and sat down, especially since her pale skin and wide eyes said that she was anything but unafraid at the moment. It was all he could do not to pull her into his arms and tell her everything would be okay. That’d he’d keep her safe.
    “Whoever helped your father probably went underground the second his crimes were discovered,” Dom offered.
    “But you don’t know that for sure,” she whispered. “And why would he steal information if he wasn’t planning on using it?”
    He could see Dom didn’t have a reasonable answer so Vin said, “It doesn’t matter. He won’t get anywhere near you.”
    Her copper eyes landed on him and held his gaze as if testing the validity of his words. Whatever she saw must have made her feel somewhat better because she smiled briefly and nodded. And that tiny show of trust made him feel like king of the fucking world.
    “Dom, can you give us a minute?”
    Dom nodded and left and Vin got up to sit in the chair next to her. “Nothing changes, okay? This guy doesn’t get to take the life you’re putting
