Note: Why I wanted to read this book: SWFG: Single, White, Female, Geek. Hello? They marketed right at me and boy am I glad they did!
What I Loved: Sometimes when you read a book, you get really lucky enough to see yourself in a character. That was how I felt while reading Lexi! She was right at home with a keyboard/research but when you put her in a dress and heels she felt awkward. Granted, I hope to never find myself in the high risk situations she happens to stumble upon but it was fun reading her figure everything out. Lexi is a full-blown hacker/gamer/computer geek and she also has some very geeky friends. She happens to use these talents in this book to help find a fellow missing geek that deals with nanobots. The case was really fun and interesting. I thought the twists/turns were fantastic.
What I Liked: For a geek, Lexi is attracting the really hot men! Finn, the Irish accent lawyer who is also her boss. Slash, the mysterious but seems to be there when she needs him, government agent who has a to die for leather coat. Also Elvis, one part of the geek twins that I think just might have a thing for her. Lexi, of course, has no idea what to do with any of them. This is not a romance, but it was fun to watch her deal with these 3 guys in a very bumbling way. The limo scene with Finn was hilarious!
Complaints: None other than I didn't realize this was a 2nd in series book. I will be going back for the other one.
Why I gave it a 4: This was a really good Computer Mystery story. The pacing, plot, and characters all delivered and I had a great time reading it!
“The STRUT chat room. I met two guys there. RawMode and Grok.” “Grok as in Heinlein’s Martian?”

No One to Trust is an intriguing and fast paced novel. It has an appealing cast of characters that are three dimensional and realistic. Julie Moffett’s use of the tech industry sets the stage for unique and thought provoking mysteries. To read this review in its entirety, please visit http://bookreviewsandmorebykathy.com/?p=190

Fun story
This is my 3rd time rereading the series. I have loved Lexi from the first time I read the first book.

#2 in Lexi mysteries. Lexi & Finn get their first case trying to find a missing nano researcher. Hacking into a message that is an SOS to Lexi they start investigating a seemingly endless search. Throw in Basia, the Zimmerman twins, & Slash. Lexi is up to her eyeballs in adventure, murder, mishaps, & possible romance. Another zany fun book

Lexi is turning heads, but it is her own neck she will need to save. A great read!

The second book in the series was awesome! I laughed so hard I cried. It was great! I loved Lexie and how she changed some, and now I can't wait for more. I'm hooked on this series.
