Publisher's summary

When you come out of safe mode, they may bury you if you're not careful....

Deep Six computer guru Dex Buchanan goes to Vegas get his geek on, but runs into his ex-lover getting her freak on. Or is she?

No, Dr. Grace Wentworth is in Sin City to find her missing sister who was lured there by a monster. Dex agrees to help her, but will they find her before her final curtain call? Or will he pay the ultimate price for not minding his own business?

In a perfect world, maybe he would have the chance to live the life he'd been hiding from for eight years, with the one who got away.

Sexy

I loved being able to turn this story on and lose myself in Becky's Deep Six world. I definitely need to go back and read the books I've missed!

Safe Mode

I have read this book on my Kindle, but it was so nice to have the audio version to listen to! Matt Haynes did a fantastic job of narrating Becky McGraws amazing addition to the Deep Six Security team.
We get to meet Dex in this book, he happens to run into his Ex while in Vegas. However something just doesn't seem right when he sees her and what she is doing. Grace finds herself on a mission to find her sister. This leads Grace into a world that involves BDSM and Master Tim. When she feels like she's got the will to follow through she finds her Ex getting in the way. I highly recommend this book as a stand alone or in the series order. Nothing like a geek God to make you fall in love!

Love this series!

I absolutely love Safe Mode by Becky McGraw, it is a great addition to her Deep Six Security series. Grace heads to Las Vegas to find her sister and runs head on into trouble. Dex, who is on vacation recognizes Grace at the airport and senses that she's in trouble. While trying to help Grace, Dex had to deal with the skeleton in his closet and face demons that he's been avoiding for years. The heat and passion that Grace and Dex have is off of the charts! I fell head over heels for Dex. He is a true alpha in his own sense and the way he protects Grace tugs at your heart. Dex has now taken the number one spot in the men of Deep Dix Security.

The audio version brought this story to life and I thoroughly enjoyed the narration by Matt Haynes

Edge of your seat wild ride

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would absolutely recommend this book to any friend who loves a good story and likes to be on the edge wondering what comes next.

What did you like best about this story?

I'm a fan of the underdog and Dex is a lot of fun to cheer for... #GeeksAreHot

What does Matt Haynes bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Matt Haynes makes this story come to life with his easy to listen to voice.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

There are so many moments i the story that come to mind, but I think the need to stand together whether it is Dex and the Deep Six crew or the family bond that has been torn apart for so long, but when they are brought back together they are a unit immediately.

Entertaining!

What did you like best about this story?

There were some pops of humor that I really enjoyed. Dex was my favorite!

Would you listen to another book narrated by Matt Haynes?

I'll give him another chance, but so far he hasn't won me over. This was the only time I've heard his narration, so I'd like to see how he does other times.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I don't want to give too much away, so I'll be vague, but there is an ice cream gathering that was so sweet and I loved the idea.

Any additional comments?

Full Review -

This is more like a 3.5, but I rounded up because it had a strong finish. The story is interesting and entertaining, and I enjoyed that there was some humor. In Safe Mode, Grace is trying to find her sister, who met some Dom online and went to his BDSM club/resort to make "movies", but Grace hasn't heard anything from her sister in over a month, so she decides to do something just as stupid as her sister, she contacts the same Dom her sister did and acts like she's into the BDSM lifestyle, but she knows little to nothing about that world, so she doesn't no what she has gotten herself into, but she'll do what she needs to do in order to find her sister. Dexter sees Grace, who he knew in college, in the airport and sees the Dom treating Grace poorly, so he decides to see what's going on because the Grace he knew would've never been into that type of sex play. Dexter is great, and I liked that he is a sexy computer nerd! He's adorkable! I also like the backstory with Grace and Him, and I loved his attitude! Grace on the other hand wasn't so great, she made stupid decisions all the time, and I don't like how she messed up Dexter's life after he helped her out with a really scary situation, but she did sort of grow on me, so it wasn't all bad, but she really was quite helpless. The action scenes were great, and this story actually deals with some intense stuff, which I found to be very interesting and I like that this story took a bit of a darker turn; it was unexpected. There's actually not much BDSM stuff in this book, which I didn't mind too much, but I would've liked more for the sex scenes that were present; they felt a little lacking and incomplete, but luckily, the story kept me interested the whole time, and the Deep Six Security stuff was really cool. I listened to the audiobook version of the story, and the narration felt a bit robotic in the beginning, but by the end it wasn't so bad. I don't know if I just got used to it, or the narrator just got into the flow of the story, but he did an okay job. This was the first book I've read by Becky McGraw, and after reading this book, I'd like to read more in this series, so I'll be checking out more from Becky McGraw!

Those geeky guys will get you every time

There is more to the geeky Dex. Follow this amazing journey in which you will cry, laugh, cheer, drop, your jaw and get so mad you will catch yourself going are you kidding me. At one point I actually said out loud " I did not see that coming" and burst into tears. Well done Ms Becky McGraw well done

Safe Mode: Dex and Grace

You know, I love nerds! Dex is a great guy and I'd love him even if he wasn't a hottie! I have reviewed this story already and LOVE it. But Matt Haynes honeyed dulcet tones adds to the listening experience. There are definitely parts that will make you squirm and others that may make you laugh out loud! But that is life! Love, love, love it!

Quick, easy listen

This was my first Becky McGraw audible book. I have read all of the Deep Six Secuirty books, but had not listened to any. This was an enjoyable listen. Matt Haynes did a good job distinguishing between voices, although his female voices were not always discernible. The books are easy romantic suspense books and I found this one to be interesting and fast paced.
