How, eventually, the online and the offline came together and made their relationship that much greater to read about and to root for. I loved seeing the changing dynamic of Jesse and Ian's relationship based on whether they were online or in person.

Hard Wired is about all of that and so much more. Or maybe it's that you're afraid the person you met online won't think you measure up when you meet in person. Or the fear that people around you won't be able to understand how you could possibly have made such a strong connection with someone you've never met face to face. Whether it's the fear that whatever you had online won't possibly translate to IRL. If you're someone who's ever met anyone online and then taken that relationship offline, you'll find something to relate to in these stories. One of my favourite things about Megan Erickson and Santino Hassell's books is how relatable their stories are, especially for people who've made connections line (romantic or otherwise).
