Product Description In the fourteenth book in the series, the stakes are raised even higher as Stephanie Plum finds herself in her most dangerous, hilarious, hottest, chase yet. With her loveably offbeat family along for the ride (as well as a few new faces), it's clear to see why the Plum novels are called "Hot Stuff" by the New York Times and why Evanovich herself is called "the master."

UNABR CD--lousy packaging!!!! October 13, 2008 OK, I won't beat the plot to death, although I have to admit I don't think "14" will be my favorite. My complaint is with the LOUSY packaging of my UNabridged CDs.
Am I the only one that listens to books in the dark? If not, these are all but impossible to use, and I wouldn't suggest you try to change CDs while driving or whatever. Some of the "pages" in the cardboard book have 2 slots, and the slots are loose enough that 2 CDs can easily fit into them. This makes a mess trying to change CDs without turning on the light, and I frequently gave up and did so. If I turn the "book" upside down--52 card (or 7 disk) pick up. Turn it sideways, 7 disk pick up again. Maybe my "book" missed a trip through the glue machine, but gimme a break!! I got so sick and tired of picking up the scattered disks that I usually listened to the same one again (or turned on the light). This has NEVER been a problem before, not even with the 2 "book" sets with a boatload of CDs, like Harry Potter; I have developed ways of dealing with them, if the CDs will stay in place and are given their own pages. Especially with only 7 CDs, I fail to see the need to scrimp on space to such a degree.
How about a better package for "15," huh??!!
Solid Evanovich title. October 10, 2008 3 out of 7 found this review helpful
This is more of the same--our fearless protaganist haplessly makes her way through life with sexy guys on standby. If you liked it before, you'll like it now; it's a nice "twinkie" story (light on substance but fun to eat...I mean, read).
LOVE PLUM- October 10, 2008 4 out of 8 found this review helpful
This series is my absolute favorite "relax and read". Such great characters and always makes me laugh- perhaps after 14 there are just so many high expectations that fans get overly critical. Every person I recommend this just adores Stephanie Plum. Keep em coming Evanovich- but hey can you throw us a bone and get Stephanie to pick Ranger?

Excellent book. It was nice to learn about Joe's family. It was nice that Ranger took a back seat in this book. Sometimes the conflict over the 2 men gets long. She needs to pick Joe and move on.

I waited to get this installment of the Stephanie Plum series because I thought the last one was abysmal, so I was afraid this one wouldn't be any better, and I must admit that I liked it better than I thought I would. I still have my main criticism of her last couple of books, and that is that the characters Stephanie, Ranger, and Morelli don't evolve. Specifically the love triangle - she needs to make a choice. I don't know why they allow her to lead them around by the nose. That goes against everything we have ever known about Ranger and Morelli. At this point, I don't think she deserves to be with either of them. Hopefully this series will wrap with the next book.
Brenda's side story was an interesting twist, and that brought some humor. Her character was over the top, but what do you expect from an aging diva? We also got to see a lighter side of Ranger with him in something other than his commando gear. Although he didn't play a huge role in this book, it was nice to get a glimpse of something a little different.
Some old favorites provided many light moments. Mooner is always good for comic relief, and always has something priceless to say. One thing we really appreciate is that he stays the same. It is expected. Grandma Mazur was pretty much absent from this story, and I like her. It was a shame she wasn't used much in this book. She has had me crying in the past from laughing so hard.
