First, I wish Amazon allowed for half stars because my true rating is a 3 and one/half. I expect up videos.

If you are a Stephanie Plum fan consider these books the half hour TV sitcom to Ms Plum as the feature presentation. But as I said before I am optimistic. I anticipate that Ms Evanovich and Ms Hughes will become more comfortable in combining their writing styles and hopefully future books will display this.

This is a step up from the first two books in this series, which were...well..not too great. Much more of Janet Evanovich's voice comes through (resembling the Stephanie Plum series.)

While the depth factor here is still rather low, this is a fast read. I bought it at the airport and it sufficed for a full day of travel and flight delays.
