Ever since the first novel, One For The Money, I've been following the adventures of 30-ish Stefanie Plum who lives in Trenton, New Jersey and it out of work. So she decided to go working for her cousin Vinnie, as a bounty hunter. Just imagine! Right from the start, it's normal that Stefenie's car gets blown up or any other 'accident' happens. Just as well Stefanie can rely on two guys who want to help her out: police officer Joe Morelli (with his grandma Bella who gives everyone the 'eye) and South-American born Ranger, who is ex-special services and who owns a security company. It's hard to choose between the two of them - and Janet Evanovich, the author, once told me she's going to keep this a secret for as long as possible.
And at the office, there are Connie, the manager, and Lula. Lula's an ex-hooker who now works a a clerk at the bond office and often rides shotgun with Stefanie. Amond the two of them, they sometimes manage to get someone in who's 'forgotten' about his court date...
Although after some time the books get a bit predictable, I can still laugh out loud when reading. I advise other not to read these novels when travelling on a train or such. You'd get weird looks when you start laughing!
