Number 11 in the Stephanie Plum series proves Janet Evanovich could go on forever. This best-selling author keeps the humor flowing with the wacky situations Stephanie and her cohorts manage to get themselves into.

Stephanie is beginning to question where her life is going and makes the drastic decision to quit her job as a bounty hunter. She ends up working in a button factory but gets fired the first day before she even begins work. Her next job at a dry-cleaning establishment ends when the owner takes a semi-automatic and tries to shoot her, and her try at a fast-food restaurant ends in disaster when she manages to set the place on fire. While all this is going on, Stephanie is receiving threatening notes and being shot at while cars and buildings and people around her are blowing up. Ranger finally steps in and offers Stephanie a job with him, which gives her the chance to try to find out who's after her while under the protection of bad-boy Ranger. Meanwhile, Stephanie has moved in with Joe Morelli, her on-again, off-again boyfriend, to help while he nurses a broken leg, a byproduct of one of Stephanie's fiascoes.

What a fun series this is. The triangulated relationship between Stephanie, Ranger and Morelli is teasing and deliciously anticipatory for the reader. The characters are wonderfully portrayed and only get better as the series evolves. Looking for a fun read? This won't disappoint.
