From the Back Cover
Read the Dynamite Blockbuster that Started It All!"Evanovich is funny and ceaselessly inventive."--Los Angeles Times Book Review"Snappily written, fast paced and witty."--USA TodayWelcome 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.Stephanie lands a gig at her sleazy cousin Vinnie's bail bonding company. She's got no experience. But that doesn't matter. Neither 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.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.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Full of Shenanigans
*by R***R on November 5, 2015*
Lazy Review Time - since this came out forever ago and there are a bazillion reviewsThis series has 20+ books in it. I can see what it has been so popular over the years. It is just a good time wrapped up in a ball and transported to the 90s. A time when New Jersey was known for garbage and hydrocarbons and people still had answering machines and no cell phones….YES we used to live like that.Stephanie Plum is a fun character and this was a pretty good introductory book with funny shenanigans as she tries to figure out how to be a bounty hunter. She makes some pretty big mistakes that lead to a little bit of hilarity along the way. She is easy to like and I had a good time hanging out with her as she learns the ropes Eliza Doolittle style from a guy named Ranger that I could help but picture in my head as Dog the Bounty Hunter.A few things I liked:① - The Nostalgia I felt for the 90s② - The hinted at future romantic interest *crosses finger* I really liked Morelli and hope they ‘Play Train’ sooner rather than later.③ - Crazy Shenanigans i.e. hitting the boy who took your virginity and didn’t call with your car a few years later. (don’t worry he was okay)④ - Crazy Grandma’s. I love funny and ridiculous family members so this fit the bill well⑤ - Totally creepy psychopaths. The messed up in the head bad guy is a bit deranged and pretty scary.Definitely and easy fun and funny read with a little drama and suspense.
### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great fun
*by D***N on May 20, 2017*
With fast scene changes and a main character that is both frivolous and fun, this book is a good one for pure enjoyment, for just kicking back and going with the flow. Stephanie Plum makes decisions on the fly, with not much concentrated intellectual effort, but that suits the environment and job function she finds herself in. She is a Jersey chick that finds that she must sometimes do things that are totally out of character and in steep contrast with her upbringing. Her breaking of tradition, her negation of her past regimentation, makes this story fascinating and worth the time for its perusal.Adapting to frightening situations with sometimes bold innovation and an absence of timidity, Stephanie is both a risk taker and one who hedges her bets along the way with subtasks that assist in sustaining her financially as she seeks to attain her major goal. This goal is to capture an acquaintance, a guy she ****ed in her younger years, and who has skipped bail on murder charges and seemingly wants to prove his innocence.Along the way Stephanie steals his vehicle, discarding the jalopy she started off with, and encounters unsavory and purely evil characters that make the reader want to enter a bathroom for a date with the commode. But Stephanie deals with the creeps and bums that enter into her circle of protected space and decrease its radius with skill and daring, and for readers who admire such traits in a woman, especially male readers, a voluntary sharing of their personal space would be both natural and desirable.
### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Must Read
*by L***7 on August 12, 2017*
Fabulous series. I've read every book and can't wait for the next one. I recommend starting with this one and going through the entire series in order. Stephanie Plum and her family are wonderful. I bought this so I would have it on my Kindle as well as in hard cover. Worth rereading. Stephanie loses her job and can't find another one. Just about broke, she blackmails her pervert cousin, Vinnie, to hire her as a bounty hunter. She is the most inept bounty hunter and also the luckiest ever. Her first big assignment is bringing in Joe Morelli, her former flame and the guy she ran over when he didn't call. Add in her Granny, who looks like 90 and acts like 20 and her mentor, the super hot bounty hunter, Ranger. Mix this all in with Jersey attitude and you have an amazing result. I hope Evanovich keeps writing. I need my regular fix.
