DESCRIPTION:
A FOUR STAR BOOK Karol Love Stephanie Plum is a bond enforcement agent, working for her cousin Vinnie. She is not the best bounty hunter but because of her tenacity and just plain stubbornness, she always seems to track her skips down and eventually apprehends them. Which is pretty good considering she typically does not have her gun with her, and even if she did it most likely wouldn't have bullets in it. She is constantly losing her cuffs, forgets to charge her stun gun every night and caries around extra hold hair spray in lieu of pepper spray.With this book, her skips included a man wanted for polygamy, a toilet paper bandit, and a drug dealer wit. Review from Red Adept Reviews Overall Review from Red Adept Reviews Heather B Overall 4 ½ starsPlot/Storyline 4I always think of this sort of book as a bubblegum book - sweet, chewy, and lacking any substance. That doesn't make it bad in any way, instead, it's a wonderful diversion from an overly busy life. Sizzling Sixteen is one of the many in the Stephanie Plum series and, while I enjoy them, to me they all feel very similar. There is a new adventure in each one, but if you don't love visiting with the characters (and once you get to know them you will!) you may find too much of the same feeling in each book. Every book does forward the fairly weak series plot but you can grab any one of th. ½ starsPlot/Storyline Review from Red Adept Reviews Heather B Overall 4 ½ starsPlot/Storyline 4I always think of this sort of book as a bubblegum book - sweet, chewy, and lacking any substance.

I understand that there are a lot of people who were disappointed with Sizzling Sixteen. You cannot approach the Stephanie Plum series expecting the rules of the "real world" to apply. That's why these books are the perfect summer reads: they are light-hearted, funny, sometimes silly, and totally implausible. Implausible, you say? Yes! In what dimension can you: Eat everything you want and not gain weight Blow up/wreck/irreversibly damage multiple cars Have an ongoing sexual-tension filled flirtation with two unbearably sexy men and never have either one of them give you an ultimatum Be saved fro
If they can rescue him, it will buy them some time to raise the cash.BAD LUCK:Finding a safe place to hide Vinnie turns out to be harder than raising $786,000. In Trenton, this involves hunting down a man wanted for polygamy, a turnpike toilet paper bandit, and a drug dealer with a pet alligator named Mr. Trenton, New Jersey, bounty hunter Stephanie Plum has inherited a "lucky" bottle from her Uncle Pip. BAD LUCK:Vinnie, of Vincent Plum Bail Bonds, has run up a gambling debt of $786,000 with mobster Bobby Sunflower and is being held until the cash can be produced. Vinnie's messing up Mooner's vibe, running up pay-per-view porn charges in Ranger's apartment, and making Stephanie question genetics.GOOD LUCK:Between a bonds office yard sale that has the entire Burg turning out, Mooner's Hobbit-Con charity event, and Uncle Pip's lucky bottle, they just might raise enough money to save the business, and Vinnie, from ruin. With any luck at all, Uncle Pip's lucky bottle wi
Vinnie's also gotten caught up with local mobster Bobby Sunflower in a complicated scheme. Even though her sleazy cousin isn't her favorite person and chasing oddball felons isn't her ideal career, Stephanie knows family loyalty counts for something, plus she owes him for giving her a job all those years ago. From Publishers Weekly In this tepid Stephanie Plum adventure from Evanovich (Finger Lickin' Fifteen, etc.), a personal case distracts the Trenton, N.J., bondswoman from tracking the usual group of eccentric skips--the kidnapping of her cousin, Vinnie, who's being held f
