This was a fun book. Think 1/3 Stephanie Plum, 1/3 Lisbeth Salander, and 1/3 James Bond.Lexi is a 24 going on 25 year old woman with a top secret computer job. She is a computer geek, wears no makeup, has had sex exactly one time in her life, and it is quite possible that she buys her clothes at Walmart. Not what you picture as a Bond girl... She also loves Dunkin Donuts and Diet Coke. She is very down to earth, sassy, and honest. She does not have a side kick named Lulu, but there are hot guys suddenly popping out of the woodwork and just appearing in her apartment at all hours of the day and night. Unfortuneately, Lexi can trust none of them.From computer geek to Bond girl.. After being abducted twice in one night, interrogated about some papers she was supposed to have received in the mail, and discovering her best friend has gone missing, Lexi starts asking questions. Before you know it, she is shot at and uncovering some major corruption involving a fertility clinic and 40 million dollars and an Arab prince. A hot Irish lawyer, a sexy Swede karate instructor, and an Enrique Inglesius look alike all claim to want to help Lexi get to the bottom of this mess, but each one is hiding secrets of his own. Who can she trust?There are hot kisses, agents on stakeouts, world traveling, handcuffs, and another sexy guy named Elvis. I wonder if this is the beginning of a series? I can see it going somewhere. I had a few chuckles and a whole lot of fun wondering what mess Lexi was going to end up in next.Why not five whole stars? Too much information and too many characters at times. Still, a fun read tho.
