Book Description

June 19, 2007 Stephanie Plum Novels
One for the Money
ONE FINE MESS
Welcome to Trenton, New Jersey, home to wiseguys, average Joes, and Stephanie Plum, who sports a big attitude and even bigger money problems (since losing her job as a lingerie buyer for a department store). Stephanie needs cash-fast-but times are tough, and soon she's forced to turn to the last resort of the truly desperate: family...

ONE FALSE MOVE
Stephanie lands a gig at her sleazy cousin Vinnie's bail bonding company. She's got no experience. But that doesn't matter. As does the fact that the bail jumper in question is local vice cop Joe Morelli. From the time he first looked up her dress to the time he first got into her pants, to the time Steph hit him with her father's Buick, M-o-r-e-l-l-i has spelled t-r-o-u-b-l-e. And now the hot guy is in hot water-wanted for murder...

ONE FOR THE MONEY
Abject poverty is a great motivator for learning new skills, but being trained in the school of hard knocks by people like psycho prizefighter Benito Ramirez isn't. Still, if Stephanie can nab Morelli in a week, she'll make a cool ten grand. All she has to do is become an expert bounty hunter overnight-and keep herself from getting killed before she gets her man...
 
 
Two For The Dough
Bounty hunter Stephanie Plum is still learning the ropes at her cousin Vinnie’s bail bond office, so when she sets out on the trail of Kenny Mancuso—a suspiciously wealthy, working class Trenton boy who has just shot his best friend—the stakes are higher than ever. That Mancuso is distantly related to vice cop Joe Morelli—who is trying to beat Stephanie to the punch—only makes the hunt more thrilling….
 
Taking pointers from her bounty hunter pal, Ranger, and using her pistol-packing Granda Mazur as a decoy, Stephanie is soon closing in on her mark. But Morelli and his libido are worthy foes. And a more sinister kind of enemy has made his first move…and his next move might be Stephanie’s last.
 
 
Three to Get Ready
A "saintly" old candy-store owner is on the lam-and bounty hunter extraordinaire Stephanie Plum is on the case. As the body count rises, Stephanie finds herself dealing with dead drug dealers and slippery fugitives on the chase of her life. And with the help of eccentric friends and family, Steph must see to it that this case doesn't end up being her last...

5.0 out of 5 stars Stephanie Plum Rules! September 19, 2007
By avocat
Format:Mass Market Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I actually started this series with Hot Six. I don't know why. I really wasn't expecting much. But it was great, so I bought the box set of the first three books in the series and read them in about 3 days. The Stephanie Plum mysteries are just so funny--I find myself laughing out loud all the time. A quick and pleasant read and the characters Evanovich creates are just fabulous--there is Stephanie herself of course, and Rex, her pet hamster; Joe Morelli and Ranger, her competing love/lust interests; Grandma Mazur; and of course, Lulu. If you like detective/sleuth novels and like Kinsey Millhone, you will love these books.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good, good reading September 28, 2007
Format:Mass Market Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Excellent light hearted reading. Enough mystery to keep you guessing, enough humor to give you some chuckles and a lot of oh no's!!! Thoroughly enjoyable. I'll buy the rest of them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Stephanie Plum is a Hoot! April 4, 2009
Format:Mass Market Paperback
You start reading one of these books and you're hooked by the first few pages! She's young, she's a bounty hunter and she's as real as one of your best friends! If you can read thru any of these books and not laugh so hard you're getting side stitches I'd be surprised!

Janet Evanovich makes her character Stephanie Plum seem like a real person--bad hair days and turmoil all rolled up in to one! You learn to love the character and all of her family and friends (Grandma Mazur, LuLu, Joe, Ranger, Connie).

Adventures galore, car chases, car explosions, murders, mystery, and an apartment that seems to be the place to be! Stephanie stumbles in to all sorts of messes and has some very hunky heroes who come to her aide from time to time--in her adventures as well as in her bedroom!

A friend gave me book #11 and I started reading it....could not figure out why my friend thought I'd want to read a book about a young woman bounty hunter but by page 3 of that book, Stephanie had hooked up with her friend, LuLu and the front tire of a bike had been shot, a car had exploded and a store had been robbed by a devil mask wearing robber.....all in the first 3 pages and I was hooked!

I immediately sent off for all of the books in the Stephanie Plum numbered series from Amazon and have been reading them starting with #1 and enjoying each and everyone of them! I even have the #15 book pre-ordered so as to not miss the adventure and it's not due out til June!!! I know you can start reading any of these books and learn some about the background of the characters but I think by starting with #1 and reading thru them in order you get to know each character better and see why they're all so tied in to each other.

I had read the books before [compliments of a friend]. I never laughed as much as I did with Janet Evanocich's stories. I purchased the books as a birthday gift for my great-niece. She needs some laughter in her life. Just graduated from college.

5.0 out of 5 stars Can't Put Them Down June 8, 2010
Format:Mass Market Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I purchased 3 box sets of the Stephanie Plum series volumns 1 thru 9. I could not put them down once I opened the book. Janet Evanovich keeps the words flowing and the humor coming. Granma is my favorite character. Everyone should have a character like her in their lives. I would recommend this series to anyone who loves to laugh.

3.0 out of 5 stars Plum Boxed set (1-3) July 2, 2009
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I got this set to read while on vacation. I wanted something funny with a bit of crime solving story. So I was excited to get started on this series based on the reviews. One thing for sure was how descriptive the writer is and I could truly imagine the story. I was a bit disappointed with how she made Plum a bit dum and I think she was much more intellegent than this. I didn't laugh out loud at the parts that were supposed to be funny and the plot was okay and sometimes slow and boring. My favorite character was the grandmother. I don't think it deserves 5 stars but the books were as good as 3 stars. I don't think I will get the rest of Plum series since the plot is not that great and I wouldn't be surpriced if they turn this into a chick flick movie. If you are thinking of getting this set, STOP! Get the first one and see if you like it. I got all three and I was stock reading them. This book is good for easy reading and has a bit of an action and interesting characters and for not thinking too much while lying by the beach or the pool.

5.0 out of 5 stars Box set is perfect February 5, 2010
Format:Mass Market Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
The Stephanie Plum box set was perfect. For one the books are hilarious and once you finish one you are able to start the next one right away. I also learned that by buying them singly, it cost more to buy three than in the box set. It was perfect.

Amazon sales the books not through them you have to pick on a list who sales them. So it is taking me longer to get the second box set. That is my biggest problem right now. I ordered the books about a week ago and still haven't gotten the second box set.

All in all I love the product and Stephanie Plum's character is young and feisty!

Love it
