No One Lives Twice

De: Julie Moffett

Narrado por: Kristin Watson Heintz

"I'm Lexi Carmichael, geek extraordinaire. I spend my days stopping computer hackers at the National Security Agency. My nights? Those I spend avoiding my mother and eating cereal for dinner. Even though I work for a top-secret agency, I've never been in an exciting car chase, sipped a stirred (not shaken) martini, or shot a poison dart from an umbrella.

"Until today, that is, when two gun-toting thugs popped up in my life and my best friend disappeared. So, I've enlisted the help of the Zimmerman twins - the reclusive architects of America's most sensitive electronic networks - to help me navigate a bewildering maze of leads to find her.

"Along the way, my path collides with a sexy government agent and a rich, handsome lawyer, both of whom seem to have the hots for me. Hacking, espionage, sexy spy-men - it's a geek girl's dream come true. If it weren't for those gun-toting thugs...."

Cute Caper

Looking for light listening, this met that expectation. The story would better have been read by a Lauren Becall kind of voice rather than the sweet little girl voice, over-articulated with corny accents. Some interesting characters that kept my attention but unfortunately the main character isn't credible and may be more suited for young (11 year old) readers.

Fun

These stories have a little bit of everything. Mystery, romance, action, adventure, cops and robbers. I think the author wrote a great series and it's nice to read and listen to a story without vulgarities. I can listen to it in the car with worrying about who is on the car with me.

Read it in print instead

I loved this book when I read it but hated it when I was listening to it. I couldn't listen for more than an hour. The reader is just totally wrong for the book. She does it no justice. I'm so glad I decided to read it on my kindle instead of just giving up on it because it was so much fun! A total page-turner with a little humor tossed in. It's more complex than your average cozy mystery but not as dark as your average spy thriller. It's a nice combination of the two. I loved Lexi and all the other characters. I can't wait to see them all again in the next book and am curious to see which of her many potential suitors she ends up with.

The beginning of one of my favorite book series

Geeks, handsome agents, and one clueless junior NSA cyber tech… mix together and you get a cast of wonderful characters, a great story, a lot of humor. Wonderful well-done narration, too!

The unfolding of the story stood out big time for me

I delayed listening to this one because of the rating but I actually enjoyed it greatly after having listened to most of the rest of the serie. It makes it even more interesting to see how the relationships evolved through the serie later on.
