It's always exciting to hear about different authors, and so when someone recommended Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum novels, I first looked out for them in the library, read one, and was hooked.

It's the series of books about Stephanie Plum, bounty hunter extraordinaire. 'One For The Money' is a veritable banquet of action, laughs, and believable characters, and was addictive from the very first page. The basis of the book is that Stephanie Plum loses her job as a buyer for a down-market lingerie store thanks to cut-backs, and through desperation more than anything, goes to her cousin, Vinnie, for a job. Vinnie runs a bail-bond company, and as there's no secretarial ... Read the complete review
