Series Stephanie Plum #17
Where there's smoke there's fire, and no one knows this better than New Jersey bounty hunter, Stephanie Plum. The bail bonds office has burned to the ground, and bodies are turning up in the empty construction lot. To make matters worse, Stephanie is working out of a motor home she shares with a dancing bear, and Joe Morelli's old world grandmother has declared a vendetta against her. And just when Stephanie decides it might be time to choose between the two men in her life, Morelli and Ranger, a third man from Stephanie's past moves back to Trenton...
Break out a cold drink and slap on some sunscreen, this summer is sure to be a scorcher with Smokin' Seventeen.
I picked this book up because Series/Review
What I liked the Most? Yay!! There’s a story!!
What I liked the Least? Why was the bear included?
Review: I was sooooo very happy with this book, I was really able to laugh out loud and enjoy the read. It seems to be a step in the right direction – the past couple of books have seriously lacked the funny factor. There is a large dose of Joe & Ranger in it. Grandma was a menace at the funeral parlor. And of course Lula is Lula and totally working it royal.
The actual mystery was there but it was very easy to solve, but she included it!!!!
Recommended to: Fans of the series
Best Quote: “Working at Rangeman is a high-stress job, and you’re one of our few sources of comic relief. I give you a car and my men start a pool on how long it will take you to trash it. You’re a line item in my budget under entertainment."
