Product Description
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...

One for the Money November 11, 2009 J. Wood The characters are easily recognized and remembered. Entertaining, funny - as in laugh out loud, which I normally don't do. The neighborhood Stephanie Plum grew up in is believable as are her antics.
The quality of the books were good and I will be able to pass them on.
What's not to like? November 2, 2009 D. Newman (Southeast Kansas) After reading most of the Stephanie Plum series, I discovered that I had not read the first 3. Ordered these, and they arrived in less than a week, in great condition.
Great books! October 2, 2009 Marcia Pollard I throughly enjoyed these books, they are a great read! The books were delivered fast and in perfect condition! Thank you!
IT WAS A GIFT TO SOMEONE ELSE September 20, 2009 Susan G. Beck (South Range, MI) I have not heard from the person yet; so, I don't know how the books arrived. It is annoying to be forced to rate the item, and I am very busy and want to delete this from my email! So, I'll give it a 5 so as not to ruin the business rating!
sloppy prose, uninteresting characters September 2, 2009 David J. Sandstrom (Chevy Chase, MD, USA) This series was recommended to me, and I was looking for something light to escape with. Unfortunately, I had trouble making it through volume 1, much less the rest of the series. The prose is like a first draft, and the characters are all stereotypes. I find it hard to care what happens to any of them. Maybe I'm just the wrong audience.
