Cover: Turbo Twenty-Three by Janet Evanovich

Stephanie gets a dream job — undercover in an ice-cream factory — while Lulu, Randy and Grandma are trying to make a naked reality show.

What I Liked

Okay, I confess, if you put Lulu, Randy and Grandma in any situation for a naked reality show, there are going to be some crazy-fun scenes.… Read the rest

Men are stressing Stephanie out…a burglar who was covered in bacon grease, a frat boy who assaulted a Dean, Morelli who broke up with her, a businessman who hired Rangeman to protect him and his wife, and a guy who tortures women. And one of them has given her a pimple on her chin the size of Mount Everest.… Read the rest

Cover: Top Secret Twenty-One by Janet Evanovich

Stephanie is looking for a car dealer named Poletti and nobody seems to be missing him or know anything, except Randy Briggs who needs Poletti in jail.

Plot or Premise

Cover: Takedown Twenty by Janet Evanovich

Stephanie is trying to bring in an aging mob-boss who is Morelli’s godfather.

What I Liked

Everyone loves Uncle Sunny so nobody wants to help…not his goons, not Morelli, not Morelli’s family, not anyone in the burg. But that’s not unusual. Dead old ladies showing up in dumpsters and a giraffe running through the burg are unusual.… Read the rest

While on a flight back from a trip to Hawaii with both Ranger and Morelli (it’s complicated), Stephanie’s seatmate gets whacked during a layover and everyone thinks Stephanie knows something.

Ranger needs Stephanie to find out what’s going on with Dickie Orr, her ex-husband. Which she does, in normal Stephanie fashion – she brings the crazy.
