New secrets, old flames, and hidden agendas are about to send bounty hunter Stephanie Plum on her most outrageous adventure yet!
MISTAKE #1
Dickie Orr
Stephanie was married to him for about fifteen minutes before she caught him cheating on her with her archnemesis, Joyce Barnhardt. Another fifteen minutes after that, Stephanie filed for divorce, hoping never to see either one of them again.
MISTAKE #2
Doing favors for super bounty hunter Carlos Manoso (aka Ranger)
Ranger needs Stephanie to meet with Dickie and find out if he’s doing something shady. Turns out, he is. Turns out, Dickie’s also back to doing Joyce Barnhardt. And it turns out Ranger’s favors always come with a price. . . .
MISTAKE #3
Going completely nutso while doing the favor for Ranger, and trying to apply bodily injury to Dickie in front of the entire office
Now Dickie has disappeared, and Stephanie is the natural suspect in his disappearance. Is Dickie dead? Can he be found? And can Stephanie Plum stay one step ahead in this new, dangerous game? Joe Morelli, the hottest cop in Trenton, New Jersey, is also keeping Stephanie on her toes---and he may know more than he’s saying about many things in Stephanie’s life. It’s a cat-and-mouse game for Stephanie Plum wherein the ultimate prize might be her life.
With Janet Evanovich’s flair for hilarious situations, breathtaking action, and unforgettable characters, Lean Mean Thirteen shows why no one can beat Evanovich for blockbuster entertainment.

Summary: BAD GIRLS BURN SLOW
Comment: Stephanie Plum has lots of gall but if you want to read about a cold blooded killer in a skirt you have got to get BAD GIRLS BURN SLOW. If you are a Stephanie Plum fan you will be blown away by Pam Ward's character, Margie. the cat and mouse game between her child (who burns dolls when she's bored) is a hair raising thriller. Any Plum fan will enjoy this book to the max!

Summary: A Flamethrowing Villian!
Comment: I love Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum adventure series. It's not a traditional mystery, and she mixes danger with comedy and a unique cast of oddball larger than life characters just a tiny bit over the top from people readers can relate to. She has two romantic interests. Joe Morelli, cop and lifelong friend. And Ranger, wealthy bounty hunter who lives life on the edge of dark and light. Ranger reminds me of the Jason Quartermaine Morgan character on General Hospital. He has few words and he is apt to grab Stephanie, kiss her hard and leave her panting. Everyone I know loves Morelli. Me, I'm a Ranger girl. Cops don't do it for me. Bad boys do.
In Lean Mean Thirteen, Stephanie and Morelli are forced to deal with Stephanie's ex hubby, a smarmy attorney who's gotten himself mixed up with some dirty dealings and a lot of money. The villain executes via flamethrower, which once I got past the shock, found fascinating. Great story, great ending, bravo again Ms. Evanovich!
Five Stars, of course.

Summary: Great Service Great Condition
Comment: The description of whether it was a hard cover or soft cover was first which save me a lot of time. The condition and pricing of the book was great. I received the book quickly, before the expected date for the normal shipping price.

Summary: Is This a Sign of the Times?
Comment: Two pages into the book, I realized it was not a book for me. This sort of writing is not worth my time. It was loaned to me as a funny read - a stitch. For funny plusbeautiful character development. my favorite is
"A Prayer for Owen Meaney." THERE IS A SUBSTANTIAL DIFFERENCE BETWEEN IT AND STITCH FUNNY. Other reviewers indicate it IS a rehash of the other 13 books and not as good. And, Janet has been listed as #1 New York Times Bestselling author. All of this leads me to believe it isn't just the Stock Market that has crashed.
