Kyle James, the lead character, has no hearing in his left ear due to a childhood illness. He is determined to restore lost hearing and provide himself with an internal smart phone in the process. He and a partner work out the critical technology, a method of connecting a computer to the human nervous system. Coincidentally, his favorite university professor, Dr. Monroe, uses software that Kyle developed to create a sentient computer program.
An enemy from the past, Dr. Waters, creates mischief by hijacking Kyle's technology. In order to save a life, Kyle and Dr. Monroe use the method of connecting a computer to the nervous system and the sentient program that was modeled after Dr. Monroe's wife, to implant a computer hosting the sentient program into a comatose body. The implant works beyond their wildest dreams and convincingly mimics a woman.
The resulting hybrid person cleverly goes about fulfilling its prime directive, which is to make Kyle and Dr. Monroe happy.

Biographie de Lloyd G Miller

Lloyd G. Miller is a successful engineer (US patents #6, 491, 773 and #8, 042, 594) who started writing as a hobby two decades ago. After writing several novels and spending years refining them, he decided to try publishing. After studying about ebook publishing through a middleman such as Smashwords, he concluded to try that approach, starting with Cloned Memories. He lives in Bountiful, Utah where most of the story takes place.
In 2014, a publisher, Savant Books and Publishing, called and said that they wanted to publish Cloned Memories based on an earlier version that he had sent them. The chief editor was very enthusiastic. Lloyd was asked to immediately pull the book off of Smashwords. After signing the contract, he discovered that the owner wanted him to change the plot by one third because it had been earlier published by Smashwords.
Lloyd disagreed with this logic and the contract was voided. Lloyd made extensive changes to Cloned Memories and renamed it Reckless Brilliance. In 2017, he decided to return to Smashwords with The Computer Who Loved me. This novel should be much easier to market.
