I requested this book from netGalley, not realizing it was book 2 of the Lexi Carmichael series.  I immediately found book 1 and read through that one very quickly; totally loving it.  Book 2 was great!  Lexi is a fantastic character: smart, nerdy, quick thinking and also more sexy than she knows.  She's like the ugly duckling turning into the swan over time.  Everyone around her knows how great a friend she is, and how beautiful...everyone but her.  She views herself as rather plain, nerdy and stick-like with no curves.  She's wrong, as she's managed in 2 books to attract 3 different men!  Her mind is as great as her physical appearance.  Being asked to join the private sector and leaving the NSA was a big gamble for her, but one of the best decisions she could've made.  She is coming into her own, and at such a young age, only in her mid-twenties right now.  All her friends help her with her investigative troubles in this book too, just like in the first one.  Elvis and Xavier are awesome again, and I can't help but wonder if Elvis is holding a torch for Lexi with some of the hints that he really likes her and vice versa.  Slash returns in this book, and does not disappoint.  He is still just as much an enigma as he was in book 1, but at least we learn a little bit more about him.  He really does like Lexi a lot, and seems to think he will eventually get to be her lover.  I wonder if it will really happen, seeing as he is just that confident.  I like Finn and the connection that him and Lexi seem to have, it could be a really nice relationship between the two of them, but then where does that leave Slash and Elvis?  I can't wait to read more in book 3!  I am loving this series!
